Today marks six months since the reprehensible Hamas attacks of October 7. The brutal rampage of terror killed over 1,100. The cruelty, the systematic sexual violence, the targeting of so many civilians, were horrifying.

Despicable act of vandalism today outside the offices of the EU Delegation in Tel Aviv, which represents the EU and all its 28 member states. Condemned already by Israel FM. Investigation under way, hope it will lead to swift identification and prosecution of those responsible.

Today the lobby of the EU Delegation was vandalized with threatening slogans on the walls. No one of my colleagues was in the office as we are closed on Sunday. This incident is deplorable and has to be condemned. We will continue to do our job.

We offer condolences to the families of the victims of today’s horrific terror attack. Violence against civilians is always reprehensible, but the nature of this shooting, killing two young women, is particularly shocking Violence has no place at this time of religious holidays

Good news from Cork: the opening of a new bridge named after #MaryElmes from that city, who saved hundreds of Jewish children in France during WWII and is honoured as “Righteous Among the Nations”. @yadvashem @HumanRightsIRL @HET_Ireland

A Cork woman described as Ireland's Oskar Schindler has been honoured by the opening of a bridge in her name in Cork. The Mary Elmes Bridge was named after a public vote, to honour the woman who saved up to 400 children and adults in occupied France |

Historic achievement: Dr Dan Briscoe, Head of Ophthalmology is the FIRST Israeli (and the first Irishman) ever accepted into The International Orbital Society, governed by orbital surgeon peer recommendation only. Less than 30 members are included worldwide. Israel salutes him!
