The savagery in Gaza continues, with images of death and devastation now a daily feature of our media consumption. However, we cannot allow ourselves to become inured to those images. What Israel is doing to Palestinians living in Gaza must not be tolerated.

The obvious question is what we in Ireland can do to help those suffering the horrors of war, disease, and starvation in Gaza, and our State representatives are working hard to find a solution.
