A Kilkenny-based woman is calling on the Irish Government to help in her evacuation from Beirut and for consular assistance so she can bring her Lebanese fiancé with her to Ireland.

Gadier Zabad, who came to Ireland from Lebanon in 2006, said she felt her life was in danger “every second” of the past 24 hours.
