Gaza Action Ireland was formed by Irish activists involved in Irish Ship to Gaza. We aim to highlight and help undermine the illegal Israeli blockade of Gaza.
The Gaza Kids are coming back to Ireland this summer! We can't wait! Please donate to the costs of bringing the children over, we need your help.

An Israeli attack on four residential apartments in Gaza City killed nine Palestinians, including an entire family, and injured dozens.
Al Jazeera’s Hind Khoudary reports from the scene, where residents say one child survived.
Great letter by our Chairperson Zoë Lawlor @ZazaFL in today's Irish Times. Most of the discourse about the Ireland V Israel fixtures completely ignores the Palestinian boycott call. The FAI must respect it and refuse to play. #StopTheGame
Now that Gaza lies in ruins—shattered, like a beloved face after a long brutality—Israel moves with a terrible confidence to the next act: The act of leaving every soul there not merely wounded, but permanently disabled. Injured, sick, hungry, homeless, without work, without hope. This is not war’s collateral damage. This is design.
As my friend Gideon Levy writes—and he knows, he knows—this is the prelude to expulsion. Think of it: a society without teachers, without doctors, without social workers, without engineers, without clerks. That is not a society. That is a holding pen. A slow erasure. And when nothing functions—no school, no hospital, no office, no heart—then it becomes ‘easy,’ they tell themselves, to scatter the people to the four corners of the earth. Like seeds from a broken pod, except no soil will take them.
We must name this. Not with rage alone, though rage is honest. But with the cold, clear tears of recognition: they are making life impossible so that departure becomes the only ‘choice.’ And the world watches, adjusts its spectacles, and calls for restraint. Restraint! There is no restraint in a slow drowning.
Israeli Apache helicopters bombed Gaza’s sea port today. Hundreds of tents line the port. Here are some of the living arriving to the hospital. And media continue using the term “fragile ceasefire.” Every single day Israel is targeting & killing people in Gaza.
This is Khalifa from Gaza, he came to Ireland twice, played football, met the President, charmed us all. He was a Palestine National Youth Team player. He was 20 when he was murdered by Israel, one of the 421 football players they killed. He is why the FAI must not play Israel.
Why did the Irish Times publish a letter saying the Taoiseach should ask the *wanted for war crimes* Prime Minister of an apartheid state under investigation for genocide about building illegal homes, themselves war crimes? @ITletters
The only real coverage and discussion of Israeli apartheid and genocide in this country is in sports media. No equivocation, no fake balance. From the women's basketball, to the GAA and Allianz, to the Nations League fixtures. It just needs to include the Palestinian BDS call.
All the whataboutery merchants on the Ireland Israel games *willfully* fail to mention that there is a longstanding Palestinian call for a sporting boycott of Israel.
At least 72,819 Palestinians have been killed and 172,894 have been injured by Israeli attacks since the beginning of its genocide in Gaza https://t.co/WCiu6WtJ4K
Why don't @RTERadio1 presenters bring facts to their shows? Today Sh*tter claimed there is no Israeli apartheid, with no pushback from David McCullagh. The ICJ, UN, all major human rights organisations find Israel is committing apartheid against Palestinians, not mentioned at all
The Jewish Anti-Zionist Congress will be in Dublin 26th - 28th June. All information on speakers, panels, tickets and how to sponsor if you can, available ➡️ https://t.co/wHK2r7KpG5

On World Football Day a reminder that genocidal apartheid Israel has murdered at least 421 Palestinian football players. The FAI must not play the Nations League fixtures against them.
The Gaza blockade is extraordinarily criminal: a form of collective punishment, it is a war crime in itself, and the enclosure behind which genocide has unfolded.
Cooperating with Israel under these conditions may entail complicity.
All this must end and be accounted for.
Israel has bombed Gaza's Nuseirat refugee camp, killing Mohamed Abu Malouh, his wife Alaa Zaqlan and their baby, Osama, as they slept.
Gaza officials say Israel has killed more than 880 Palestinians since the so-called October “ceasefire”.
Tomorrow! Tuesday 26th May 12.30 - 2pm the Dáil, join us to demand the cancellation of the Nations League games against apartheid Israel.
