Fatin al Tamimi (centre), vice-chairperson of the Ireland-Palestine Solidarity Campaign (I.P.S.C) leads the march through Dublin City, down a closed off Nassau Street, towards the Department of Foreign Affairs.

A large group of protesters gathered outside the Israeli Embassy in Dublin on the evening of October 9th where a protestor managed to scale the wall and throw red paint on the entrance of the building.

In a post on social media, a group called Anti-Imperialist Action Ireland claimed responsibility and said their actions were motivated by a “defence of Palestine”.
