War in Sudan: "At least 50,000 children severely malnourished".

Cogadh sa tSúdáin: "50,000 leanbh ar a laghad fíor-mhíchothaithe".

The World Health Organization says only 16% of health facilities are functioning in Sudan's capital, Khartoum, due to the destruction caused by the war between two military gangs in the country.

Deir an Eagraíocht Dhomhanda Sláinte nach bhfuil ach 16 faoin gcéad de shaoráidí sláinte ag feidhmiú i bpríomhchathair na Súdáine, Cartúm, mar gheall ar an scrios atá déanta ag an gcogaíocht idir dhá dhrong mhíleata sa tír.

On top of that, diseases are spreading, food and water are scarce and it is only possible that more people will die under those circumstances, it is said.

Ar a mhuin sin, tá galair á scaipeadh, tá bia agus uisce gann agus ní féidir ach go bhfaighidh tuilleadh daoine bás faoi réir na gcúinsí sin, a deirtear.

In fact, it is reported that around 50,000 children who are severely malnourished have been treated medically so far and there is no thought that this will be the end.

Go deimhin, tuairiscítear go bhfuil cóireáil leighis curtha go dtí seo ar thart ar 50,000 leanbh atá fíor-mhíchothaithe agus gan aon cheapadh gurb in é a dheireadh.

A three-day ceasefire that was put in place at the beginning of the week will end this afternoon, and although there is talk of extending it, it is not clear whether the two sides agree on that.

Tiocfaidh deireadh tráthnóna le sos comhraic trí lá a cuireadh i bhfeidhm i dtús na seachtaine, agus cé go bhfuil caint ar shíneadh a chur leis níl sé soiléir an bhfuil an dá thaobh ar aon intinn faoi sin.

In any case, the ceasefire was breached in places and there were clashes yesterday in the suburbs of Khartoum, in the neighboring city of Omdurman and in the Darfur region close to the border with Chad in western Sudan.

Ar aon chuma, sáraíodh an sos comhraic in áiteanna agus bhí caismirtí inné i mbruachbhailte Chartúm, i gcathair chomharsanachta Omdurman agus i réigiún Darfur gar don teorainn le Sead in iarthar na Súdáine.

Many people are fleeing the war and the United Nations estimates that 270,000 refugees could seek refuge in Chad and South Sudan.

Tá an draoi daoine ag teitheadh ón gcogaíocht agus measann na Náisiúin Aontaithe go bhféadfadh 270,000 dídeanaí tearmann a lorg i Sead agus sa tSúdáin Theas.

According to the latest figures, 88 Irish citizens and their families have so far been evacuated from Sudan with the assistance of various countries in the European Union.

De réir na bhfigiúrí is deireanaí, tá 88 saoránach Éireannach agus a dteaghlaigh aslonnaithe go dtí seo ón tSúdáin le cúnamh ó thíortha éagsúla san Aontas Eorpach.

Since the conflict began on April 15, it is estimated that over 500 people have been killed, that almost 4,200 have been killed and that millions have been left in need.

Ó thosaigh an choimhlint ar an 15 Aibreán, áirítear gur maraíodh os cionn 500 duine, gur donaíodh beagnach 4,200 agus go bhfuil na milliúin fágtha ar an ngannchuid.

It is said that matters have now gathered from head to head for the fifteen million people in Sudan who were already dependent on humanitarian aid.

Deirtear go bhfuil cúrsaí bailithe ó mhaoil go mullach anois do na cúig mhilliún déag duine sa tSúdáin a bhí ag brath ar chabhair dhaonnúil cheana féin.

Disagreement between the leader of Sudan, General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the deputy leader, Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, is the cause of the fighting.

Easaontas idir cheannaire na Súdáine, an Ginearál Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, agus an leascheannaire, Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, is cionsiocair leis an gcomhrac.

A "long" telephone conversation between Xi Jinping and Volodymyr Zelenskiy.

Comhrá "fada" teileafóin ag Xi Jinping agus Volodymyr Zelenskiy.

Chinese President Xi Jinping and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy had a telephone conversation today, the first time the two men have spoken since Russia invaded Ukraine a year and a half ago.

Bhí comhrá teileafóin inniu ag Uachtarán na Síne Xi Jinping agus Uachtarán na hÚcráine Volodymyr Zelenskiy, an chéad uair a labhair an bheirt fhear le chéile ó rinne an Rúis ionradh ar an Úcráin bliain agus blogh de bhliain ó shin.

Volodymyr Zelenskiy is said to have wanted to have a conversation with Xi Jinping for quite some time.

Deirtear go raibh Volodymyr Zelenskiy ag iarraidh comhrá a bheith aige le Xi Jinping le tamall maith.

Afterwards, the Ukrainian man said that it was a long and beneficial conversation and that it would accelerate the development of relations between the two countries.

Ina dhiaidh, dúirt fear na hÚcráine gur comhrá fada agus tairbheach a bhí ann agus go gcuirfeadh sé dlús leis an gcaidreamh idir an dá thír a chothú.

He also announced that he had appointed a new ambassador to China.

D'fhógair sé freisin go raibh ambasadóir nua sa tSín ceaptha aige.

President Xi is reported to have told Volodymyr Zelenskiy that he would soon send special representatives to Ukraine with the aim of "initiating talks between all those who seek peace".

Tuairiscítear go ndúirt an tUachtarán Xi le Volodymyr Zelenskiy go gcuirfeadh sé ionadaithe speisialta chun na hÚcráine gan mhoill agus é i gcuspóir acu "cainteanna a thionscnamh idir gach aon dream atá ag lorg síochána".

Xi Jinping has never condemned Russia's invasion of Ukraine, however, and visited Moscow last month, where he held talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Níor cháin Xi Jinping ionradh na Rúise ar an Úcráin riamh, áfach, agus thug sé cuairt ar Mhoscó an mhí seo caite, mar a raibh cainteanna aige le hUachtarán na Rúise Vladimir Putin.

The previous month, he proposed a peace plan that was somewhat welcomed by the Ukrainian Government but rejected by Western countries.

An mhí roimhe sin, mhol sé plean síochána ar chuir Rialtas na hÚcráine fáilte áirithe roimhe ach ar dhiúltaigh tíortha an Iarthair dó.

Ceasefire in force in Sudan, foreigners being evacuated.

Sos comhraic i bhfeidhm sa tSúdáin, eachtrannaigh á n-aslonnú.

The two warring military gangs in Sudan have imposed a 72-hour ceasefire this morning.

Tá sos comhraic 72 uair an chloig curtha i bhfeidhm ar maidin ag an dá dhrong mhíleata atá in adharca a chéile sa tSúdáin.

It makes it a shame to take citizens from other countries out of the country without going through the motions.

Fágann sé go bhfuil ionú anois ann saoránaigh ó thíortha eile a thabhairt amach as an tír gan cúrsa na slat a rith.

Diplomats from the United States and Saudi Arabia reportedly convinced both sides to implement the ceasefire.

Tuairiscítear gur taidhleoirí ó na Stáit Aontaithe agus ón Araib Shádach a chuir ina luí ar an dá thaobh an sos comhraic a chur i bhfeidhm.

However, there is always the risk that the ceasefire will not be adhered to, especially since some of the two parties have already breached such temporary arrangements.

Tá an baol ann i gcónaí, áfach, nach gcloífear leis an sos comhraic, go háirithe ó sháraigh ceann éigin den dá dhream socruithe sealadacha dá shórt cheana.

About 430 people have been killed in ten days in the clashes between one faction loyal to the Sudanese military leader and another loyal to the deputy leader.

Áirítear thart ar 430 duine a bheith maraithe le deich lá sna caismirtí idir dhream amháin atá dílis do cheannaire míleata na Súdáine agus dhream eile atá dílis don leascheannaire.

They are General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, to whom the army base is loyal, and Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, who commands a large paramilitary force.

Sin iad an Ginearál Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, a bhfuil bunáite an airm dílis dó, agus Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, a bhfuil fórsa mór paraimíleata faoina cheannas.

Disagreement between those two about the transfer of power to a civilian government caused the conflict.

Easaontas idir an bheirt sin faoi aistriú na cumhachta go dtí rialtas sibhialtach údar an imris.

It is said that approximately one hundred Irish citizens and their families are ready to leave Sudan if they have the chance and the means.

Deirtear go bhfuil tuairim is céad saoránach Éireannach agus a dteaghlaigh réidh le himeacht as an tSúdáin ach an fhaill agus an acmhainn a bheith acu.

It is understood that half a hundred people associated with this country have already been taken out of Sudan in the past few days.

Tuigtear go bhfuil leathchéad duine atá bainteach leis an tír seo tugtha amach as an tSúdáin cheana féin le cúpla lá.

The Department of Foreign Affairs has confirmed that they were brought to Djibouti with the help of France and Spain.

Tá sé dearbhaithe ag an Roinn Gnóthaí Eachtracha gur tugadh go Djibouti iad le cúnamh ón bhFrainc agus ón Spáinn.

The Government is to send a special emergency team to Djibouti to coordinate the evacuation of people from Sudan.

Tá meitheal speisialta éigeandála le cur go Djibouti ag an Rialtas le haslonnú daoine ón tSúdáin a chomhordú.

Efforts are underway again today to clean a river in Uchter Ard.

Iarrachtaí ar bun arís inniu abhainn in Uachtar Ard a ghlanadh.

Work is underway in Uchter Ard in Co Galway again today to clean up oil that leaked into a river in the area yesterday.

Tá obair ar bun in Uachtar Ard i gCo na Gaillimhe arís inniu chun ola a sceith isteach in abhainn sa gceantar inné a ghlanadh.

There is concern that the pollution could harm fish and mussels which attract many fishermen to the area every year.

Tá imní go bhfeadfadh an truailliú dochar a dhéanamh d'iasc agus do dhiúilicíní a mheallann go leor iascairí go dtí'n ceantar gach bliain.

Yesterday morning the locals, who were out fishing, saw that there was oil in the Ruybe River.

Maidin inné a chonaic muintir na háite, a bhí amuigh ag iascach, go raibh ola in Abhainn Ruibhe.

The authorities have been informed.

Cuireadh na húdáráis ar an eolas.

The fire and Irish Inland Fisheries services attended the scene and have installed a protective barrier on the river in an attempt to stop the oil from spreading.

D’fhreastail na seirbhísí doiteáin agus Iascach Intíre Éireann ar an láthair agus tá bacainn chosanta feistithe acu ar an abhainn in iarracht an ola a stopadh ag scaipeadh.

Irish Inland Fisheries confirmed that the leak was caused by oil from a tank.

Dheimhnigh Iascach Intíre Éireann gur ola as tanc țí bă chúis leis an sceitheadh.

Today, the scene smelled of oil and cleaners were not happy to see the media there.

Inniu, bhí boladh ola ag an láthair agus ní raibh lucht glanta sásta na meáin a fheiceáil ann.

Firefighters tell Nuacht that they have cleaned up several hundred liters of oil but do not know how much oil was in the tank.

Deir lucht dóiteáin le Nuacht go bhfuil cúpla céad líotar ola glanta suas acu ach nach bhfuil a fhios acu cé mhéid ola a bhí sa tanc.

Seán Ó Cionnaith from Inland Fisheries Ireland says that the goal of Inland Fisheries Ireland is to protect and conserve the trout and also the mussels.

Deir Seán Ó Cionnaith ó Iascach Intíre Éireann gurb é an sprioc atá ag Iascach Intíre Éireann ná na bric a chosaint agus a chaomhnú agus na diúilicíní freisin.

Fishing is important to the Uchter Ard area and every year the Cuil Bealtaine Festival is held here, an event that attracts many fishermen from abroad.

Tá iascaireacht tábhachtach do cheantar Uachtar Ard agus chuile bhliain bíonn Féile Chuil Bhealtaine ar bun anseo, imeacht a mheallann go leor iascairí ó thar lear.

Fisherman Ultan Macken from Uchter Ard says he doesn't believe Uchter Ard would exist if the fishing on the Corrib wasn't good.

Deir an t-iascaire Ultan Macken as Uachtar Ard nach gcreideann sé go mbeadh Uachtar Ard ann mura mbeadh an iascaireacht ar an gCoirib go maith.

In a statement this afternoon, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says it is aware of the incident and that Galway County Council, Inland Fisheries Ireland and the National Parks and Wildlife Service are now leading the investigation and clean-up. .

I ráiteas tráthnóna, deir an Ghníomhaireacht um Chaomhnú Comhshaoil (EPA) go bhfuil sé ar an eolas faoin eachtra agus gurb iad Comhairle Contae na Gaillimhe, Iascach Intíre Éireann agus an tSeirbhís Páirceanna Náisiúnta agus Fiadhúlra atá i gceannas ar an bhfiosrúchán agus an glanadh suas anois.

Proposed ban on the use of TikTok on the work devices of public employees.

Cosc molta ar úsáid TikTok ar ghléasanna oibre fostaithe poiblí.

Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has said that he understands that concerns have been expressed about how information collected on TikTok is used and how it is passed on.

Tá sé ráite ag an Taoiseach Leo Varadkar go dtuigeann sé go bhfuil imní léirithe faoin gcaoi a n-úsáidtear eolas a bhailítear ar TikTok agus faoin tslí a gcuirtear ar aghaidh é.

He was speaking in Cork, after the National Cyber Security Center advised government departments and state organizations that TikTok should not be allowed on the work devices of public employees.

Ag caint i gCorcaigh a bhí sé, tar éis don Lárionad Náisiúnta Cibearshlándála comhairle a chur ar ranna rialtais agus eagraíochtaí stáit nár chóir TikTok a cheadú ar ghairis oibre fostaithe poiblí.

The use of TikTok was recently banned on public works devices in the United Kingdom, the European Union and the United States.

Cuireadh cosc ar úsáid TikTok le gairid ar ghléasanna oibrithe poiblí sa Ríocht Aontaithe, san Aontas Eorpach agus sna Stáit Aontaithe.

TikTok is owned by a Chinese company and concerns have been expressed around the world about cyber security on the platform.

Is le comhlacht de chuid na Síne é TikTok agus tá imní léirithe ar fud an domhain maidir le cibearshlándáil ar an ardáin.

Coming on the heels of the ban in other countries, the government in Ireland announced a few months ago that they were to seek fresh advice on the issue and the National Cyber Security Center undertook a technical assessment of TikTok.

Ag teacht sna sála ar an gcosc sna tíortha eile, d'fhógair an rialtas in Éirinn cúpla mí ó shin go raibh siad le comhairle úr a lorg ar an gceist agus thug an Lárionad Náisiúnta Cibearshlándála faoi mheasúnú teicniúil ar TikTok.

The Taoiseach indicated, however, that it must be recognized that the company ByteDance, which owns TikTok, provides a lot of investment for this country and that the company employs many people in Ireland.

Thug an Taoiseach le fios, áfach, go gcaithfear a aithint go gcuireann an comhlacht ByteDance, gur leosan TikTok, go leor infheistíochta ar fáil don tír seo agus go bhfuil go leor daoine fostaithe ag an gcomhlacht in Éirinn.

But even so, he said, expert advice cannot be ignored.

Ach mar sin fhéin, a dúirt sé, ní féidir neamhaird a thabhairt ar chomhairle saineolaithe.

According to the advice of the Cyber Security Centre, TikTok should not be placed on public workstations, unless it is absolutely necessary, from the point of view of the organization's business.

De réir chomhairle an Lárionaid Chibearshlándála, níor chóir TikTok a chur ar ghairis oibirthe poiblí, ach amháin sa gcás go bhfuil géarghá ag baint leis, ó thaobh ghnó na heagraíochta de.

That advice is in line with the ban put in place by the European Commission.

Tá an chomhairle sin ag teacht leis an gcosc atá curtha i bhfeidhm ag an gCoimisiún Eorpach.

In a statement today, TikTok expressed its disappointment at the announcement and said it had not been contacted before the decision was made.

I ráiteas inniu, thug TikTok le fios gur údar díomá é an fógra seo agus dúirt siad nach ndearnadh aon teagmháil leosan sular glacadh an cinneadh.

The concern about the amount of information that the authorities in China have access to through TikTok is intensifying.

Tá ag géarú ar an imní faoin méid eolais go bhfuil fáil ag na húdaráis sa tSín air trí TikTok.

To alleviate that concern, TikTok said they would be willing to store European user data in two data centers in Dublin and a third in Norway.

Chun an imní sin a mhaolú, dúirt TikTok go mbéidís toilteanach sonraí úsáideoirí na hEorpa a stóráil i ndá ionad sonraí i mBaile Átha Cliath agus sa tríú hionad san Iorua.

Ambulance response times have increased every year since 2019.

Méadú gach bliain ar amfhreagartha otharcharr ó bhí 2019 ann.

Emergency ambulance responses in life-threatening situations have increased every year since 2019, according to new figures published by the National Ambulance Service.

Tá méadú tagtha gach bliain ó bhí 2019 ann ar amfhreagartha otharcharr i gcásanna ina bhfuil an t-othar i mbaol báis, de réir figiúirí nua atá foilsithe ag an tSeirbhís Náisiúnta Otharcharr.

Last year, patients in Category 1 - that is, patients at risk of death - waited, on average, for 26 minutes for an ambulance.

Anuraidh, bhí othair i gCatagóir 1 - is é sin, othair atá i mbaol báis - ag fanacht, ar an meán, ar feadh 26 noiméad ar otharcharr.

In the west of the country last year, one person in that category waited for 22 hours.

In iarthar na tíre anuraidh, bhí duine amháin sa gcatagóir sin ag fanacht ar feadh 22 uair.

And at the beginning of 2023, someone in the south of the country was waiting thirteen hours.

Agus ag tús 2023, bhí duine i ndeisceart na tíre ag fanacht trí huaire déag.

Newly published figures show that 890 people died last year while waiting for an ambulance - 294 in Leinster; 306 people in the south of the country and 290 people in the west of the country.

Léirítear sna figiúirí nuafhoilsithe go bhfuair 890 duine bás anuraidh le linn dóibh a bheith ag fanacht ar otharcharr - 294 duine i gCúige Laighean; 306 duine i ndeisceart na tíre agus 290 duine in iarthar na tíre.

Last year, in the case of 34% of cases, it took more than an hour before the patient was transferred into the care of the hospital from the ambulance, due to overcrowding in the hospitals.

Anuraidh, i gcás 34 faoin gcéad de chásanna, ghlac sé breis agus uair a chloig sula raibh an t-othar aistrithe isteach faoi chúram an ospidéil ón lucht otharcharr, de bharr róphlódaithe sna hospidéil.

Pedar Toiblin, leader of Auntú, received these figures about parliamentary issues.

Fuair Peadar Toiblín, ceannaire Aontú, na figiúirí seo faoi cheisteanna parlaiminte.

In response to the questions put to them, the National Ambulance Service - which is under the command of the Health Service Executive - said that they have 280 ambulances in their fleet.

Mar fhreagra ar na ceisteanna a cuireadh faoina bráid dúirt an tSeirbhís Náisiúnta Otharcharr - atá faoi cheannasaíocht Fheidhmeannacht na Seirbhíse Sláinte - go bhfuil 280 otharcharr sa bhflít acu.

They said that so far this year, 72% of ambulances have cleared out of their hospitals within an hour of landing with a patient on board.

Dúirt siad gur go dtí seo i mbliana, go bhfuil 72 faoin gcéad d'otharchairr glanta amach óna hospidéil taobh istigh d'uair a chloig dóibh a bheith tuirlingthe le hothar ar bord.

In the west of the country last year, one person in that category waited 22 hours for an ambulance

In iarthar na tíre anuraidh, bhí duine amháin sa gcatagóir sin ag fanacht ar feadh 22 uair ar otharcharr

Proposed change to the three-day waiting period in abortion cases.

Athrú molta ar an tréimhse feithimh trí lá i gcásanna ginmhillte.

It has been recommended in a review of abortion services in this country that the government should amend the waiting period in question.

Tá sé molta in athbhreithniú atá déanta ar sheirbhísí ginmhillte sa tír seo gur chóir don rialtas leasú a dhéanamh ar an tréimhse feithimh atá i gceist.

As things currently stand, pregnant women who wish to have an abortion have to go to their doctor twice: they go the first time to express their decision and then, they have to wait three days before returning they to take the medicine.

Faoi mar a sheasann cúrsaí faoi láthair, caithfidh mná atá ag iompar clainne agus ar mhian leo ginmhilleadh a fháil dul ag a ndochtúir faoi dhó: téann siad an chéad uair chun a gcinneadh a chur in iúl agus ansin, caithfidh siad fanacht trí lá sula bhfilleann siad leis an leigheas a ghlacadh.

The report recommends that doctors should continue to recommend women to wait three days, but that the decision about the waiting period should be left to the women themselves rather than being mandatory.

Moltar sa tuarascáil gur chóir go leanfaidh dochtúirí ar aghaidh ag moladh do mhná fanacht trí lá, ach gur chóir an cinneadh faoin tréimhse feithimh a fhágáil faoina mná iad féin seachas é a bheith éigeantach.

The review group compiled the report under the direction of barrister Marie O'Shea and it is understood that the Minister for Health, Stephen Donnelly, will present the recommendations to cabinet next week.

Chuir an grúpa abhbhreithnithe an tuarascáil le chéile faoi stiúir an abhcóide Marie O'Shea agus tuigtear go gcuirfidh an tAire Sláinte, Stephen Donnelly, na moltaí faoi bhráid na comhaireachta an tseachtain seo chugainn.

It also recommends that amendments be made to some of the abortion legislation.

Moltar ann freisin leasuithe a dhéanamh ar chuid den reachtaíocht ginmhillte.

As things currently stand, a doctor who does not strictly adhere to the legislation on abortion can be sentenced to up to fourteen years in prison.

Faoi mar a sheasann cúrsaí faoi láthair, is féidir suas le ceithre bliana déag príosúin a ghearradh ar dhochtúir nach gcloíann go docht leis an reachtaíocht ar ghinmhilleadh.

The review recommends the abolition of criminal charges against doctors.

Moltar san athbhreithniú deireadh a chur le cúiseanna coiriúla i gcoinne dochtúirí.

Another proposed change is to amend the legislation as it relates to fatal fetal abnormality.

Athrú eile atá molta ná leasú a dhéanamh ar an reachtaíocht faoi mar a bhaineann sí le mínormáltacht mharfach féatais.

As things currently stand, pregnant women who wish to have an abortion have to see their doctor twice

Faoi mar a sheasann cúrsaí faoi láthair, caithfidh mná atá ag iompar clainne agus ar mhian leo ginmhilleadh a fháil dul ag a ndochtúir faoi dhó

85 people killed in a massacre in the capital of Yemen.

85 duine maraithe in ollbhrútam i bpríomhchathair Éimin.

It is reported that over forty people were killed when they fell into each other's heads while charity workers were handing out donations to a large crowd in Yemen's capital, Sana'a.

Tuairiscítear gur maraíodh os cionn ceithre scór duine nuair a thit siad i mullach a chéile agus sintíúis láimhe á roinnt ag lucht carthanachta ar shlua mór i bpríomhchathair Éimin, Sana.

At least 85 people were killed and over 300 were injured in the stampede, according to the authorities in the city.

Maraíodh 85 duine ar a laghad agus gortaíodh barr ar 300 sa bhrútam, dar leis na húdaráis sa chathair.

It seems that the money was being distributed to the crowd under the roof of a school when the disaster occurred.

Is cosúil gur faoi dhíon scoile a bhí an t-airgead á dháileadh ar an slua nuair a tharla an tubaiste.

Women and children were among the dead, it was said.

Bhí mná agus páistí i measc na marbh, a dúradh.

It was revealed that merchants in the area were distributing money to the poor, which is an important tradition in Islam during the Ramadan festival, when an unexpected thunderstorm caused panic in the crowd.

Tugadh le fios go raibh ceannaithe sa cheantar ag dáileadh airgid ar na boicht, ar traidisiún tábhachtach é in Ioslam aimsir na féile Ramadan, nuair a chuir fothrom gan choinne scaoll sa phlód.

Some of them tried to leave the school but it appears that they knocked each other down and trampled each other in the skirmish.

D'fhéach cuid acu imeacht as an scoil ach dealraítear gur leag siad a chéile agus gur shatail siad ar a chéile sa scrimisc.

It was said that the merchants have been arrested and are being questioned by the police about what happened.

Dúradh go bhfuil na ceannaithe gafa agus á gceistiú ag na póilíní faoinar thit amach.

Life is in turmoil in Yemen due to the civil war that has been going on in the country for almost ten years.

Tá an saol ina chíor thuathail in Éimin de bharr an chogaidh chathartha atá ar bun sa tír le beagnach deich mbliana.

According to the United Nations, society there is barely functioning and 22 million people – two thirds of the population – are extremely poor and in need of foreign aid.

Dar leis na Náisiúin Aontaithe gur ar éigean atá an tsochaí ansin ag feidhmiú agus go bhfuil 22 milliún duine – dhá thrian den daonra – go bhfuil siad fíorbhocht agus i ngátar fóirithinte ón iasacht.

Man sentenced to 40 years in prison for murdering a Garda.

Príosún 40 bliain gearrtha ar fhear faoi Gharda a dhúnmharú.

At the Central Criminal Court, Stephen Silver was sentenced to 40 years in prison last month in the murder of Detective-Garda Colm Horkan in Co Roscommon almost three years ago.

Sa Phríomh-Chúirt Choiriúil, gearradh téarma príosúin 40 bliain ar Stephen Silver a ciontaíodh an mhí seo caite i ndúnmharú breithe báis an Bhleachtaire- Gharda Colm Horkan i gCo Ros Comáin beagnach trí bliana ó shin.

Stephen Silver, aged 46, from Bealeas in Co Mayo, admitted killing Garda Horkan, aged 49, in Castlerea in June 2020.

D'admhaigh Stephen Silver, 46 bliain d'aois, as Béal Easa i gCo Mhaigh Eo, gur mharaigh sé an Garda Horkan, a bhí 49 bliain, sa Chaisleán Riabhach i mí an Mheithimh 2020.

Rather than murder, however, he pleaded guilty to manslaughter due to diminished responsibility.

Seachas dúnmharú, áfach, phléadáil sé ciontach i ndúnorgain mar gheall ar fhreagracht laghdaithe.

It was said during the trial that Stephen Silver was suffering from mental illness but the task of the jury was to judge his state of mind at the time he killed Colm Horkan.

Dúradh le linn na trialach go raibh meabhairghalar ag dul do Stephen Silver ach gurbh é an cúram a bhí ar an ngiúiré breith a thabhairt ar a mheon aigne ag an am a mharaigh sé Colm Horkan.

Finally, the jurors unanimously convicted him of murdering an Garda Síochána acting in the course of his duty.

Ar deireadh, chiontaigh na giúróirí é d'aon ghuth i nGarda Síochána a bhí ag gníomhú i gcúrsa a dhualgais a dhúnmharú.

The family of Garda Horkan gave victim impact statements in court today.

Thug teaghlach an Gharda Horkan ráitis tionchair íospartach sa chúirt inniu.

His sister Deirdre said that "this act of terror" could never be forgiven for Stephen Silver and that she hoped he would remember that every evening when his cell door was locked.

Dúirt a dheirfiúr Deirdre nach bhféadfaí "an gníomh éigiallta seo" a mhaitheamh do Stephen Silver go brách agus go raibh súil aici go gcuimhneodh sé air sin gach tráthnóna a chuirfí glas ar dhoras a chillín.

Colm was a gentleman and everyone's friend, she said.

Fear uasal agus úillín óir gach duine ab ea Colm, arsa sí.

His father Marty revealed that he was very homesick for his son and that the counseling he had received had not helped him get through it.

Thug a athair Marty le fios go raibh an-chumha air i ndiaidh a mhic agus nár chuidigh an chomhairleoireacht a bhí faighte aige leis teacht tríd.

He was very proud of his son, he said, especially when he heard stories about how humble he was when helping people.

Bhí sé an-bhródúil as a mhac, a dúirt sé, go háirithe nuair a chuala sé scéalta faoi chomh humhal agus a bhí sé agus é ag cuidiú le daoine.

His brother Dermot said it would never happen again but it was a source of comfort for the family that he was in the company of their late mother and sister.

Dúirt a dheartháir Dermot nach mbeadh a leithéid arís ann ach gur údar sóláis don teaghlach go raibh sé i gcuideachta a máthar agus a ndeirféar nach maireann.

Colm Horkan was killed when Stephen Silver fired eleven bullets near Castlereagh Garda Station shortly before midnight on 17 June 2020.

Maraíodh Colm Horkan nuair a scaoil Stephen Silver aon philéar déag leis i ndeas do Stáisiún Gardaí an Chaisleáin Riabhaigh go gairid roimh an meán oíche ar an 17 Meitheamh 2020.

He was on patrol alone in town and got out of his unmarked car to talk to Stephen Silver.

Bhí sé ar patról ina aonar ar an mbaile agus tháinig sé amach as a charr gan mharcáil le labhairt le Stephen Silver.

The two men got into a fight and Stephen Silver managed to wrestle Garda Horkan's gun from him.

Chuaigh an bheirt fhear i ngleic le chéile agus d'éirigh le Stephen Silver an gunna a bhí ...

Hutch found not guilty of murdering David Byrne.

Hutch faighte neamhchiontach i ndúnmharú David Byrne.

In the Special Criminal Court, Gerard Hutch from Dublin was found not guilty of the murder of David Byrne who was shot in the Regency Hotel in Finbury in north Dublin seven years ago.

Sa Chúirt Choiriúil Speisialta, fuarthas neamhchiontach Gerard Hutch as Baile Átha Cliath i ndúmharú David Byrne a lámhachadh in Óstán an Regency i bhFionnbhrú i dtuaisceart Bhaile Átha Cliath seacht mbliana ó shin.

The murder involved a feud between the Hutch and Kinahan crime gangs that resulted in the killing of eighteen people.

Bhain an dúnmharú le himreas idir dhronga coireachta Hutch agus Kinahan ar maraíodh ocht nduine dhéag dá bharr.

It was claimed by the prosecution that Gerard Hutch was one of two men dressed as Gardaí who shot David Byrne in the hotel reception room on 5 February 2016.

Bhí sé á mhaíomh ag an ionchúiseamh go raibh Gerard Hutch ar dhuine de bheirt a bhí gléasta mar Ghardaí agus a lámhach David Byrne i bhforsheomra fáiltithe an óstáin ar an 5 Feabhra 2016.

However, the judges said that although some of the evidence in the trial suggested that Gerard Hutch may have given his blessing to the shooting attack, it could not be said that he himself was the member or personally involved.

Dúirt na breithiúna, áfach, cé gur thug cuid den fhianaise sa triail le tuiscint go mb'fhéidir gur thug Gerard Hutch a bheannacht don ionsaí lámhaigh, nárbh in le rá go raibh sé féin ar an mball ná páirteach ann go pearsanta.

In fact, said the judges, everything happened in the hotel at lightning speed that day and the signs of the attackers - as security cameras show them - do not match the signs of Gerard Hutch who was over half a century old at the time.

Go deimhin, arsa na breithiúna, is ar luas lasrach a tharla gach rud san óstán an lá úd agus ní thagann comharthaí sóirt na n-ionsaitheoirí – de réir mar a léiríonn ceamaraí slándála iad – ní thagann siad le comharthaí sóirt Gerard Hutch a bhí os cionn leathchéad bliain d'aois ag an am.

Earlier in court, two other men were convicted of helping a criminal organization to murder David Byrne by providing vehicles.

Níos túisce sa chúirt, ciontaíodh beirt fhear eile i gcabhrú le heagraíocht choireachta David Byrne a dhúnmharú trí fheithicilí a chur fáil.

They are Paul Murphy, a 61-year-old taxi driver, from Cherry Avenue, Swords and Jason Bonney, a 52-year-old builder, from Drumwood, Portmarnock.

Sin iad Paul Murphy, tiománaí tacsaí 61 bliain, as Ascaill na Silíní, Sord agus Jason Bonney, tógálaí 52 bliain, as Coill Dhroimní, Port Mearnóg.

The court ruled that Paul Murphy was one of the people who took David Byrne's killer from the scene shortly after the attack.

Rialaigh an chúirt go raibh Paul Murphy ar dhuine de na daoine a thug an dream a mharaigh David Byrne ón láthair go gairid i ndiaidh an ionsaithe.

Jason Bonney was convicted of taking one of the killers – the late Kevin Murray – from the scene of the attack in his car.

Ciontaíodh Jason Bonney i nduine de na marfóirí – Kevin Murray nach maireann – a thabhairt ó láthair an ionsaithe ina ghluaisteán.

The judges cast great doubt on some of the evidence given by Paul Murphy and Jason Bonney - and on some of the evidence given on their behalf - about what they were doing on 5 February 2016.

Chaith na breithiúna amhras mór ar chuid den fhianaise a thug Paul Murphy agus Jason Bonney – agus ar chuid den fhianaise a tugadh ar a son – faoina raibh á dheánamh acu ar an 5 Feabhra 2016.

They also cast doubt on much of the evidence given by former Sinn Féin councilor Jonathan Dowdall against Gerard Hutch.

Chaith siad amhras freisin ar chuid mhór den fhianaise a thug iarchomhairleoir de chuid Shinn Féin Jonathan Dowdall in aghaidh Gerard Hutch.
