Ukraine, Gaza to be discussed by the leaders of the European Union.

An Úcráin, Gaza le plé ag ceannairí an Aontais Eorpaigh.

Taoiseach Leo Varadkar will participate in a summit meeting of the leaders of the European Union in Brussels today and tomorrow where financial support for Ukraine and the crisis in Gaza will be among the major issues that will be discussed there.

Beidh an Taoiseach Leo Varadkar rannpháirteach i gcruinniú mullaigh de cheannairí an Aontais Eorpaigh sa Bhruiséil inniu agus amárach a mbeidh tacaíocht airgeadais don Úcráin agus an ghéarchéim in Gaza i measc na mórcheisteanna a bheas faoi chaibidil ann.

The leaders intended to allocate €50 billion in financial aid to Ukraine in order to keep essential services and the economy of that country going for the next four years.

Bhí sé i gceist ag na ceannairí cabhair airgeadais €50 billiún a lamháil don Úcráin le rún seirbhísí riachtanacha agus geilleagar na tíre sin a choinneáil ag imeacht as seo go ceann ceithre bliana.

It was also to be confirmed that the negotiations on the introduction of Ukraine into the European Union would begin soon.

Bhíothas lena dhearbhú freisin go gcuirfí tús gan mhoill leis an idirbheartaíocht faoin Úcráin a thabhairt isteach san Aontas Eorpach.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has indicated, however, that he will veto those two resolutions of the other leaders.

Tá sé tugtha le fios ag Príomh-Aire na hUngáire Viktor Orban, áfach, go gcuirfidh sé cros in aghaidh dhá rún sin na gceannairí eile.

Viktor Orban doesn't often pull a team and other European Union leaders view him as a loner.

Ní tharraingíonn Viktor Orban le foireann go minic agus breathnaíonn ceannairí eile an Aontais Eorpaigh air mar sheargánach.

In fact, the European Commission is withholding €30 billion in funding going to Hungary because of the 'sovereign' policies of that country's government, if any.

Go deimhin, tá an Coimisiún Eorpach ag coinneáil siar maoiniú €30 billiún atá ag dul don Ungáir mar gheall ar na polasaithe 'tiarnúla' atá ag rialtas na tíre sin, má tá.

Even so, as part of the political back and forth before the summit, the European Commission last night approved €10 billion of those €30 billion to be made available to Hungary immediately.

Ina dhiaidh sin féin, mar chuid den anonn is anall polaitiúil roimh an gcruinniú mullaigh, cheadaigh an Coimisiún Eorpach aréir €10 mbilliún de na €30 biilliún sin a chur ar fáil don Ungáir láithreach.

Viktor Orban has been accused by some of the other leaders, however, of blackmailing him.

Tá sé curtha i leith Viktor Orban ag cuid de na ceannairí eile, ámh, gur dúmhál atá ar bun aige.

In relation to Gaza, the Taoiseach and several other leaders will ask for a ceasefire to be implemented there for the sake of humanity.

I dtaca le Gaza, iarrfaidh an Taoiseach agus roinnt ceannairí eile sos comhraic a chur i bhfeidhm ann de ghrá na daonnúlachta.

It is unlikely that this request will be successful, however, since the most powerful member states voted against the same resolution in the United Nations General Assembly last night.

Ní dóichí go mbeidh aon rath ar an iarratas sin, áfach, ó vótáil na ballstáit is cumhachtaí in aghaidh an rúin chéanna i gComhthionól Ginearálta na Náisiún Aontaithe arú aréir.

A deal made at the COP28 climate conference.

Margadh déanta ag comhdháil aeráide COP28.

At the COP28 conference in Dubai, a deal has finally been made on fossil fuels in a bid to alleviate the global climate crisis.

Ag comhdháil COP28 in Dubai, tá margadh déanta faoi bhreoslaí iontaise ar deireadh le dúil an ghéarchéim aeráide dhomhanda a mhaolú.

It is not yet clear, however, what the wording of the agreement actually means.

Níl sé soiléir fós, áfach, cad is brí go baileach le foclaíocht an chomhaontaithe.

According to the content of the agreement, it seems that the 200 countries that have accepted have the intention to gradually reduce the amount of fossil fuels they burn, that is, or to give up burning fossil fuels gradually, that again or something in between.

De réir a bhfuil sa chomhaontú, dealraíonn sé go bhfuil rún ag an 200 tír a ghlac leis an méid breoslaí iontaise a dhónn siad a laghdú de réir a chéile, é sin nó éirí as as breoslaí iontaise a dhó de réir a chéile, é sin arís nó rud éigin idir eatarthu.

Nor is it certain what exactly is meant by 'gradually'.

Níltear cinnte ach an oiread cad is brí go baileach le 'de réir a chéile'.

However, the Irish delegate, Environment Minister Éamon Ryan, said that he himself believes that 'gradual reduction' is the same as 'gradual withdrawal'.

Ar a shon sin, dúirt toscaire na hÉireann, an tAire Comhshaoil Éamon Ryan, go gcreideann sé féin gurb ionann 'laghdú de réir a chéile' agus 'éirí as de réir a chéile'.

In spite of the ambiguity or ambiguity, it is a new situation to have made such a commitment by the countries of the world.

In ainneoin na débhríochta nó na trébhríochta, is cor nua atá ann gealltanas mar é a bheith tugtha ag tíortha an domhain.

Éamon Ryan indeed said that it is a historic situation since this is the first time in thirty years that the heart of the question has been addressed according to what science has proven.

Dúirt Éamon Ryan go deimhin gur cor stairiúil é ós é seo an chéad uair le tríocha bliain gur tugadh aghaidh ar chroí na ceiste de réir a bhfuil cruthaithe ag an eolaíocht.

According to the COP28 journalist, Sultan Al Jaber, the agreement "lays the foundation for the big change" that is needed.

Dar le huarachtán COP28, Sultan Al Jaber, go gcuireann an comhaontú "bonn faoin athrú mór" a theastaíonn.

What is needed, and urgently needed according to the experts, is that the temperature of the world will not be more than 1.5 degrees Celsius higher than it was before the Industrial Revolution in the eighteenth century.

Is é a theastaíonn, agus a theastaíonn go géar de réir na saineolaithe, nach mbeidh teocht an domhain níos mó ná 1.5 céim Celsius níos airde ná mar a bhí sé roimh an Réabhlóid Thionsclaíoch san ochtú haois déag.

The agreement has been welcomed by various delegates.

Is fáilte áirithe atá curtha roimh an gcomhaontú ag toscairí éagsúla.

According to the delegation of the European Union - of which Éamon Ryan is one - the agreement may be the beginning, the beginning of the end that must be put to the burning of fossil fuels.

Dar le toscaireacht an Aontais Eorpaigh – a bhfuil Éamon Ryan ar dhuine acu – go mb'fhéidir gur tús atá sa chomhaontú, tús an deiridh a chaithfear a chur le breoslaí iontaise a dhó.

The delegate of the United States of America, John Kerry, said that everyone involved in the conference should be happy with the deal that was made, although, in his opinion, it is not without fault.

Dúirt toscaire Stáit Aontaithe Mheiriceá John Kerry gur cheart do gach duine a bhí páirteach sa chomhdháil a bheith sásta leis an margadh a rinneadh, cé nach bhfuil sé gan locht, dar leis.

The alliance of small islands, islands that are at risk of drowning due to climate change, has a great voice on the issue, those who do not have the strongest voice at the confere...

Review of supports d

Athbhreithniú ar thacaíochtaí d'Úcránaigh a theith go hÉirinn.

The Taoiseach says that the Government must reform the support given to refugees from the war in Ukraine due to the pressure on it from accommodation issues.

Deir an Taoiseach nach mór don Rialtas an tacaíocht a thugtar do theifigh ó chogadh na hÚcráine a leasú de bharr an bhrú atá air ó chúrsaí lóistín.

A committee of Government ministers will discuss a proposal to reduce the financial support given to refugees from Ukraine.

Pléifidh coiste airí Rialtais moladh faoi na tacaíochtaí airgidis a thugtar do theifigh ón Úcráin a laghdú.

It appears that the refugees would only receive accommodation from the State for 90 days in the future, if the resolution being promoted by the Minister for Integration Roderic O'Gorman succeeds.

Tá an chuma ar an scéal nach bhfaighfeadh na teifigh lóistín ón Stát ach ar feadh 90 lá amach anseo, má eiríonn leis an rún atá á chur chun cinn ag an Aire Lánpháirtíochta Roderic O'Gorman.

It is expected that Social Welfare payments would also be reduced from the €220 they currently receive to €38.80, the same amount that people in the Direct Provision system receive.

Táthar ag súil go laghdófaí íocaíochtaí Leasa Shóisialaigh chomh maith ó €220 atá á fháil acu faoi láthair go €38.80, an méid céanna a fhaigheann daoine sa chóras Sholáthair Dhírigh.

Leo Varadkar says that the Government supports will be in line with similar ones in other countries in western Europe, and that the 90 day limit on accommodation is not the same as people being thrown out of an asylum provided by the State.

Deir Leo Varadkar go mbeidh na tacaíochtaí Rialtais ar aon dul lena leithéidí i dtíortha eile in iarthar na hEorpa, agus nach nach ionann an teorainn 90 lá ar lóistín agus daoine a bheith á gcaitheamh amach as tearmann a chuir an Stát ar fáil.

It is expected that the leaders of the coalition will be able to give their blessing to the plan tonight, even though Tánaiste Mícheál Martin is in Brussels at the Meeting of Ministers of Foreign Affairs.

Táthar ag súil go mbeidh ceannairí an chomhrialtais in ann a mbeannacht a thabhairt don phlean anocht, cé go bhfuil an Táinaiste Mícheál Martin sa Bhruiséal ag an gCruinniú Airí Gnóthaí Eachtracha.

Green Party leader Eamon Ryan is one of the EU's main negotiators at the COP28 climate talks.

Tá ceannaire Chomhaontas Glas, Eamon Ryan, ar dhuine de na phríomh- idirbheartaithe ag an AE ag cainteanna aeráide COP28.

Speaking on the program The Week in Politics yesterday on RTÉ, Minister of State James Browne said that it is expected that the matter will be completed this week.

Ag labhairt ar an gclár The Week in Politics inné ar RTÉ, dúirt an tAire Stáit James Browne go bhfuiltear ag súil go gcuirfear an rud i gcrích an tseachtain seo.

He said that the measures were implemented during the emergency, but that a 'medium term' approach is now needed.

Dúirt sé gur cuireadh na bearta i bhfeidhm le linn na héigeandála, ach go bhfuil gá le cur chuige 'meántéarmach’ anois.

Sinn Féin's Dála Deputy, Mairéad Farrell, said on the same program that it was time to review the supports but that there should be care about the issue of accommodation.

Dúirt an Teachta Dála de chuid Shinn Féin, Mairéad Farrell, ar an gclár céanna go raibh sé in am athbhreithniú a dhéanamh ar na tacaíochtaí ach gur cheart a bheith cáiréiseach faoi cheist an lóistín.

"We have a housing crisis", she said, "and we have to make sure that we are not pushing people into the rental market, which could increase rental prices even more."

"Tá géarchéim tithíochta againn", a dúirt sí, "agus caithfimid cinntiú nach bhfuil daoine á mbrú againn isteach sa mhargadh cíosa, rud a d’fhéadfadh praghsanna cíosa a mhéadú níos mó fós."

Molly Martens Corbett, Tom Martens to remain in prison.

Molly Martens Corbett, Tom Martens le fanacht i bpríosún.

The prison service in North Carolina in the United States has admitted that a mistake was made when calculating how long Molly Martens Corbett and her father Tom Martens were to spend in prison.

Tá sé admhaithe ag an tseirbhís phríosúin in North Carolina sna Stáit Aontaithe go ndearnadh dearmad nuair a bhíothas ag ríomh cén fad a bhí le caitheamh i bpríosún ag Molly Martens Corbett agus ag a hathair Tom Martens.

It was revealed yesterday that the two were to be released this week but it was later announced that they would be kept in prison until next June.

Tugadh le fios inné go raibh an bheirt le scaoileadh saor an tseachtain seo ach fógraíodh ina dhiaidh sin go gcoinneofaí i bpríosún iad go dtí mí an Mheithimh seo chugainn.

Molly Martens Corbett and Tom Martens were convicted in the murder of Jason Corbett, a 39-year-old man from Limerick who was beaten and killed in his home in North Carolina eight years ago.

Ciontaíodh Molly Martens Corbett agus Tom Martens i ndúnorgain Jason Corbett, fear 39 bliain d'aois as Luimneach a bascadh agus a maraíodh ina theach in North Carolina ocht mbliana ó shin.

Before it was confirmed last night that they were to be kept in prison, the family of Jason Corbett in Limerick indicated that the report about the release of the two had hurt them greatly and said that the authorities in North Carolina had wronged them.

Sular deimhníodh aréir go raibh siad le coinneáil i bpríosún, thug teaghlach Jason Corbett i Luimneach le fios gur ghoill an tuairisc faoi shaoradh na beirte go mór orthu agus dúirt go raibh loicthe ag na húdaráis in North Carolina orthu.

Molly Martens Corbett was married to Jason Corbett, a business manager whose body was found in the master bedroom of the couple's home in Wallburg, North Carolina in August 2015.

Bhí Molly Martens Corbett pósta ar Jason Corbett, bainisteoir gnó a bhfuarthas a chorp sa phríomhsheomra codlata i dteach cónaithe na lánúine in Wallburg, North Carolina i mí Lúnasa 2015.

Jason Corbett's two young children – Sarah and Jack – were in the house at the time.

Bhí beirt pháistí óga Jason Corbett – Sarah agus Jack – sa teach ag an am.

The children's mother died in 2006 and Jason Corbett married Molly Martens in Limerick in 2011 before the family moved to America.

Cailleadh máthair na bpáistí in 2006 agus phós Jason Corbett Molly Martens i Luimneach in 2011 sular bhog an teaghlach go Meiriceá.

In 2017, Molly Martens Corbett and Tom Martens were convicted of Jason Corbett's murder and sentenced to 20 years and 25 years in prison respectively.

In 2017, ciontaíodh Molly Martens Corbett agus Tom Martens i ndúnmharú Jason Corbett agus gearradh príosún 20 bliain agus 25 bliain ar an dís faoi seach.

That conviction was overturned in 2020 on the grounds, it was said, that important evidence was withheld from the jury at trial.

Cuireadh an ciontú sin ar neamhní in 2020 ar an mbonn, a dúradh, gur coinníodh fianaise thábhachtach ón ngiúiré sa triail.

Last October, however, they pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter.

I mí Dheireadh Fómhair seo caite, áfach, phléadáil siad ciontach i ndúnorgain thoilteanach.

Concern in Kerry about more refugees being sent there.

Imní i gCiarraí faoina thuilleadh teifeach a bheith á gcur ann.

An additional 100 refugees from Ukraine have been ordered to live in Kilarne, Co Kerry, from now until the end of the year.

Tá bordaithe ar 100 dídeanaí breise ón Úcráin le dul chun cónaithe i gCill Airne, Co Chiarraí, as seo go deireadh na bliana.

The Integration Department indicated yesterday that they have made an arrangement with the company Millstreet Equestrian Services, owned by the Dúgan family from Mill Street, to provide accommodation for the refugees.

Thug an Roinn Lánpháirtíochta le fios inné go bhfuil socrú déanta acu leis an gcomhlacht Millstreet Equestrian Services, ar le muintir Dhúgáin ó Shráid an Mhuilinn é, chun cóiríocht a chur ar fáil do na dídeanaithe.

It is where the Convent of Torvirte used to be on New Street in Killarney that the refugees settled.

Is san áit a mbíodh Clochar na Toirbhirte ar an tSráid Nua i gCill Airne a bheas na dídeanaithe ag cur fúthu.

The Dúgáin family bought the convent last summer for €3 million, twice the asking price in the first place.

Cheannaigh muintir Dhúgáin an clochar an samhradh seo caite ar €3 mhilliún dhá oiread an mhéid a hiarradh air ar an gcéad dul síos.

The place has since been renovated and has 26 rooms and a chapel.

Tá an áit athchóirithe ó shin agus tá 26 seomra agus séipéilín ann.

It is reported that the Dúgan family are determined to open a hotel on the site in the long run.

Tuairiscítear go bhfuil muintir Dhúgáin meáite ar óstán a oscailt ar an suíomh i bhfad na haimsire.

Millstreet Equestrian Services is one of the largest companies in the country that provides accommodation services to the State, including Dresen Castle in Mill Street.

Ta Millstreet Equestrian Services ar cheann de na comhlachtaí is mó sa tír a chuireann seirbhísí cóiríochta ar fáil don Stát, lena n-áirítear Caisleán an Driseáin i Sráid an Mhuilinn.

Last month, Kerry County Council wrote to the Department of Integration asking not to send any more refugees or asylum seekers to Kerry because, they say, 10% of all Ukrainians in the country are already in Kerry and not services can only be provided to a certain amount of people.

An mhí seo caite, scríobh Comhairle Contae Chiarraí chuig an Roinn Lánpháirtíochta ag iarraidh gan tuilleadh teifeach ná iarrthóirí tearmainn a chur go Ciarraí ar an gcúis, a deir siad, go bhfuil 10 faoin gcéad d'Úcránaigh na tíre go léir i gCiarraí cheana féin agus nach bhfuiltear in acmhainn seirbhísí a chur ar fáil ach do mhéid áirithe daoine.

According to official figures obtained by RTÉ News, 3,760 refugees from Ukraine are currently located in the town of Killarney, compared to around 2,000 in Cork city.

De réir figiúirí oifigúla atá faighte ag Nuacht RTÉ, tá 3,760 teifeach ón Úcráin lonnaithe i mbaile Chill Airne faoi láthair, ar ghualainn thart ar 2,000 i gcathair Chorcaí.

Gaza: Israeli forces in the center of Khan Younis, civilians on the ground.

Gaza: fórsaí Iosrael i lár Khan Younis, sibhialtaigh ar an bhfán.

The United Nations says 600,000 people in southern Gaza who have been ordered by Israeli forces to leave their towns soon have nowhere to go.

Deir na Náisiúin Aontaithe nach bhfuil aon áit le dul ag 600,000 duine i ndeisceart Gaza ar ordaigh fórsaí Iosrael dóibh a mbailte a thréigean gan mhoill.

According to the senior executive of the United Nations in the Palestinian territories, Philippe Lazzarini, half of those people have already left their burned-out towns but they are on the way since all the shelters have been full to the brim for a long time.

Dar le feidhmeannach sinsearach na Náisiún Aontaithe sna críocha Palaistíneacha, Philippe Lazzarini, go bhfuil leath na ndaoine sin tar éis a mbailte a fhágáil ina dtáinte cheana féin ach gur ar an bhfán atá siad ó tá na hionaid dídine ar fad lán go boimbéal le fada.

Although the Israelis have given instructions to the pilgrims to go to specific 'safe areas', the United Nations says that nowhere in Gaza is safe and that the Israelis are pretending.

Cé go bhfuil treoracha tugtha ag na hIosraelaigh do na fánaithe dul chuig 'ceantair shábháilte' faoi leith, deir na Náisiúin Aontaithe nach bhfuil aon áit in Gaza sábháilte agus gur ag cur i gcéill atá na hIosraelaigh.

Another thing is that these 'safe areas' are barren areas of land that have no resources or human resources at all, according to a local official from the United Nations.

Rud eile de, is geadáin talún aimride atá sna 'ceantair shábháilte' seo nach bhfuil acmhainn ná áiseanna daonna dá laghad iontu, dar le hoifigeach áitiúil ó na Náisiúin Aontaithe.

It is estimated that over 80% of the people of Gaza - both north and south - have been driven from their towns by this.

Meastar go bhfuil os cionn 80 faoin gcéad de mhuintir Gaza – idir thuaidh agus theas – ruaigthe as a mbailte faoi seo.

In this persecution, blood is constantly being shed.

I gceann na géarleanúna seo, tá an fhuil á doirteadh i gcónaí.

The Israelis have declared that their soldiers have reached the center of the city of Khan Younis in the south of Gaza and that they are going to fight with the Hamas forces there.

Tá sé dearbhaithe ag na hIosraelaigh go bhfuil lár chathair Khan Younis i ndeisceart Gaza bainte amach ag a gcuid saighdiúirí agus go bhfuil siad ag dul i gcomhrac le lucht airm Hamas ann.

The Israelis say they are determined to kill the Hamas leaders they believe are hiding in Khan Younis.

Deir na hIosraelaigh go bhfuil rún daingean acu ceannairí Hamas a chreideann siad atá ina bhfolach in Khan Younis a bhású.

In northern Gaza, Israeli forces are targeting specific areas in Gaza City, especially Jabalia.

I dtuaisceart Gaza, is ag díriú ar cheantair faoi leith i gCathair Gaza, go háirithe Jabalia, atá fórsaí Iosrael.

Of course, hundreds of thousands of civilians live in those places, many of them in the rubble of buildings flattened by Israeli bombs.

Dar ndóigh, tá na céadta míle sibhialtach ina gcónaí sna háiteanna sin, cuid mhór acu i smionagar na bhfoirgneamh atá leacaithe ag buamaí na nIosraelach.

Almost 16,000 people have been killed by the Israelis in Gaza in two months - 7,000 children among them - in the raids carried out by armed groups of Hamas on the south of Israel on October 7.

Nach mór 16,000 duine atá maraithe ag na hIosraelaigh in Gaza le dhá mhí – 7,000 leanbh ina measc – i ndíol an ruathair a thug buíonta armtha Hamas ar dheisceart Iosrael ar an 7 Deireadh Fómhair.

Hamas killed 1,200 people that day, including civilians and children.

Mharaigh lucht Hamas 1,200 duine an lá sin, sibhialtaigh a mbunáite agus leanaí ina measc.

Israel's renewed fighting in Gaza.

An trodaíocht atosaithe ag Iosrael i nGaza.

Israel announced this morning that it is resuming hostilities in Gaza, and carried out several airstrikes on the enclave after accusing Hamas of firing bullets into Israel while a ceasefire was in effect.

D'fhógair Iosrael ar maidin go bhfuil sí ag dul i mbun na cogaíochta arís i nGaza, agus rinne roinnt aer-ruathair ar an iamhchríoch tar éis a chur i leith Hamas gur scaoil siad urchair i dtreo Iosrael fad a bhí sos comhraic i bhfeidhm.

The Israeli army, and IDF, say that military jets were carrying out attacks on 'Hamas terrorist' centers in Gaza.

Deir arm Iosrael, and IDF, go raibh scairdeitleáin míleata i mbun ionsaithe ar ar ionaid 'sceimhlitheoireachta Hamas' i nGaza.

Gaza's health ministry confirmed that three people were killed in Rafah, where many Palestinians fled after an Israeli order to leave the north of the territory.

Dheimhnigh aireacht sláinte Gaza gur maraíodh triúr i Rafah, áit ar theith go leor Pailistíneach chuige tar éis ordú ó Iosrael tuaisceart na críche a fhágáil.

Hamas militias are understood to have been ordered to resume fighting, and are reported to be fighting heavily in several areas of Gaza city.

Tuigtear gur tugadh ordú do mhílistigh Hamas dul i mbun na trodaíochta arís, agus tuaisicítear é bheith ag go tréan i roinnt ceantar i gcathair Gaza.

There is now little hope of any further extension to the seven-day pause that saw hostages exchanged and bailouts arrive in Gaza.

Is beag dóchas atá anois ann go gcuirfear síneadh ar bith eile leis an sos seacht lá a chonaic gialla á malartú agus fóirithint ag teacht i nGaza.

The American Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, who was in the region yesterday, had requested an extension of the cease-fire yesterday, and he also warned about protecting civilians in Palestine from further fighting.

Bhí síneadh leis an sos comhraic iarrtha inné ag Stát-Rúnaí Mheiriceá Anthony Blinken a bhí sa réigiún inné, agus chuir sé fainic freisin faoi shibhialtaigh sa Phailistin a chosaint óna thuilleadh trodaíochta.

Blinken said that Israel must clearly assign areas in central and southern Gaza where civilians can find shelter from the fighting.

Dúirt Blinken go gcaithfeadh Iosrael limisitéir i lár agus i ndeisceart Ghaza a shannadh go ríshoiléir mar ar féidir le sibhialtaigh foscadh a fháíl on gcogaíocht.

Those 7 days were the only break in the fighting since October 7 when Hamas broke through the Israeli border.

Ba iad na 7 lá sin an t-aon bhriseadh a bhí sa chogaíocht ón 7 Deireadh Fómhair nuair a bhris Hamas thar teorainn Iosrael isteach.

Israel says Hamas killed 1,200 people in the attack, most of them civilians, and kidnapped about 240 In response to the attack, Israel vowed to eliminate Hamas and launched a ground and air military campaign against Gaza.

Deir Iosrael gur mharaigh Hamas 1,200 duine san ionsaí, sibhialtaigh a bhformhór, agus d'fhuadaigh tuairim is 240 Mar fhreagra ar an ionsaí, gheall Iosrael go gcuirfí deireadh le Hamas agus chuaigh i mbun fheachtas mhíleata talún agus aeir in aghaigh Gaza.

The Hamas government says over 15,000 people have been killed, and the enclave's infrastructure has been destroyed.

Deir rialtas Hamas go bhfuil os cionn 15,000 duine maraithe, agus rinneadh scrios ar infrastruchtúr na hiamhchríche.

A hostage exchange took place during the ceasefire, 80 Israeli hostages against 240 Palestinian hostages.

Rinneadh malartú giall i rith an tsosa comhraic, 80 giall Iosraelach in aghaidh 240 giall Pailistíneach.

It was indeed in Tipperary that he spent a good part of his childhood, where he was greatly influenced by the local traditional and country music.

Ba i dTiobraid Árann go deimhin a chaith sé cuid mhaith dá óige, mar a ndeachaigh ceol traidisiúnta agus ceol tíre na háite go mór i gcion air.

Taser guns, two water cannons to be provided to the Gardai.

Gunnaí taser, dhá chanóin uisce le cur ar fáil do na Gardaí.

The Commissioner of the Garda Síochána Drew Harris has confirmed that taser guns are to be made available to all members of the Public Order Unit of the Gardaí in view of the riots that were in the center of Dublin a week ago.

Tá sé dearbhaithe ag Coimisinéir an Gharda Síochána Drew Harris go bhfuil gunnaí taser le cur ar fáil do gach comhalta d'Aonad Oird Phoiblí na nGardaí i bhfianaise na gcíréibeacha a bhí i lár Bhaile Átha Cliath seachtain ó shin.

Two water canons are also to be purchased.

Táthar le dhá chanóin uisce a cheannach freisin.

In that regard, according to Commissioner Harris, Gardai will start using body cameras from the middle of next year and will be provided with more safety equipment, including stronger protective spray.

Ina cheann sin, de réir an Choimisinéara Harris, tosóidh Gardaí ag baint leas as ceamaraí colainne ó lár na bliana seo chugainn agus cuirfear tuilleadh fearas sábháilteachta ar fáil dóibh, sprae cosanta níos láidre ina measc.

Speaking at a hearing of the Oireachtas Law and Justice Committee, Commissioner Harris indicated that the Gardaí had already been making changes to their operations since the riots.

Ag labhairt dó ag éisteacht de Choiste Dlí agus Cirt an Oireachtais, thug an Coimisinéir Harris le fios go raibh athruithe á ndéanamh cheana féin ag na Gardaí ar a gcuid oibríochtaí ó bhí na círéibeacha ann.

He also said that more Gardaí would be trained in matters of public order and promised that Gardaí would be seen and visible in the capital during Christmas.

Dúirt sé freisin go mbeadh tuilleadh Gardaí á n- oiliúint i gcúrsaí oird phoiblí agus gheall sé go mbeadh Gardaí le feiceáil agus le sofheiceáil sa phríomhchathair i gcaitheamh na Nollag.

That is on the back of the Police Authority's review of the resources currently available to the Gardai, as announced by the Minister for Justice Helen McEntee yesterday.

É sin ar mhuin an athbreithnithe atá an tÚdarás Póilíneachta a dhéanamh ar na hachmainní atá ag na Gardaí faoi láthair, mar a d'fhógair an tAire Dlí agus Cirt Helen McEntee inné.

According to Drew Harris, those who were rioting in Dublin last week are a minority and he claimed that those people misused the suffering of others for their own narrow and ugly cause.

Dar le Drew Harris gur mionlach atá sa dream a bhí ag réabadh i mBaile Átha Cliath an tseachtain seo caite agus mhaígh sé gur bhain na daoine sin mí- úsáid as fulaingt dhaoine eile ar son a gcúise cúngaigeanta agus gránna féin.

While defending the way the Garda Síochána worked during the riots, Commissioner Harris said that as bad as the disorder in Dublin was that night, it did not last as long as the disorder in other capitals (in Europe). before this.

Agus é ag cosaint mhodh oibre an Gharda Síochána le linn na gcíréibeacha, dúirt an Coimisinéir Harris dá dhonacht an mí-ord i mBaile Átha Cliath an oíche sin nár mhair sé chomh fada leis an mí-ord a bhí i bpríomhchathracha eile (san Eoraip) roimhe seo.
