Gary Gannon (SD), Dublin Central

On 14 November last year, when deputising in the position the Taoiseach now holds, he said that Israel had been blinded by rage and warned that peace could not be built on the graves of children. In the almost six months since then, the lives of 15,780 children have been lost. As we sit here today, the invasion of Rafah is impending. Rhetoric has been strong from the Irish State - there is no doubt about that – but what tangible actions are we taking to hold Israel to account for the crimes it is inflicting on the people of Gaza?
