TD calls for ambassador’s expulsion as Evrony defends offensive

AN impassioned Fianna Fáil deputy broke ranks with TDs yesterday, publicly declaring Israel a “rogue state” and demanding that the Israeli ambassador be expelled from Ireland.

Chris Andrews declared that international sanctions be instigated against Israel.

The Israeli ambassador, Zion Evrony, defended Israel’s offensive in Gaza, declaring that Hamas militants were unlike the IRA and not open to change.
