An Israeli woman living in Ireland was forcibly removed from a Holocaust Memorial Day event in Dublin after protesting the President's remarks on the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
Ireland's president, Michael D. Higgins, was delivering the keynote address at the Mansion House on Sunday to make the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz. A number of attendees walked out or turned their backs on Mr. Higgins in protest when he spoke of welcoming the "long-overdue ceasefire," mentioning both the Israeli families bereaved by the October 7th attacks and those killed in "the rubble of Gaza."
