  • The Israeli Government announced on Sunday that it was closing its embassy in Dublin due to "the extreme anti-Israel policies of the Irish government".

Simon Harris, Ireland's Taoiseach, has dismissed the closure of the Israeli embassy in Dublin as a "distraction" and emphasized that Ireland will not be silenced on the issue of Palestinian statehood. This statement comes in response to Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz's decision to close the embassy, following Ireland's recognition of Palestine as a state. Harris criticized the move as an attempt to distract from the ongoing conflict in Gaza and reiterated Ireland's commitment to advocating for peace, a two-state solution, and the rights of both Israelis and Palestinians. He also mentioned that Ireland would continue to engage with both Israeli and Palestinian representatives, despite the embassy closure.
