"A missile fired at Poland is believed to be from Russia".

"Is éadóigh gur ón Rúis a scaoileadh diúracán leis an bPolainn".

The President of the United States, Joe Biden, has indicated that the missile that exploded in a village in eastern Poland yesterday evening and killed two people was apparently not fired from Russia.

Tá sé tugtha le fios ag Uacharán na Stát Aontaithe Joe Biden gur cosúil nach ón Rúis a scaoileadh an diúracán a phléasc i sráidbhaile in oirthear na Polainne tráthnóna inné agus ar maraíodh beirt dá bharr.

The story of the explosion was communicated to President Biden at a summit meeting of the leaders of the G20 countries - apart from Russia - which is taking place in Bali, Indonesia.

Cuireadh an scéal faoin bpléasc in iúl don Uachtarán Biden ag cruinniú mullaigh de cheannairí thíortha an G20 - seachas an Rúis - atá ar siúl i mBailí san Indinéis.

After some of the leaders consulted together in a sub-meeting and discussed the information that existed at the time, President Biden said that the missile was fired from Russia.

Tar éis do chuid de na ceannairí dul i gcomhairle le chéile i bhfochruinniú agus an fhaisnéis a bhí ann ag an am a phlé, dúirt an tUachtarán Biden gur éadóigh gur ón Rúis a scaoileadh an diúracán.

He indicated that the United States and other countries would help the Polish Government to investigate and substantiate the fatal incident.

Thug sé le fios go gcuideodh na Stáit Aontaithe agus tíortha eile le Rialtas na Polainne an eachtra mharfach a fhiosrú agus a chur le bonn.

It was reported yesterday evening that two farm workers were killed when the missile exploded south of the village of Przewodów about ten kilometers from the border with Ukraine.

Tuairiscíodh trathnóna inné gur maraíodh beirt oibrithe feirme nuair a phléasc an diúracán i ndeas do shráidbhaile Przewodów thart ar dheich gciliméadar ón teorainn leis an Úcráin.

The Associated Press news agency reported at the time - citing an American intelligence officer as their authority - that it was a Russian missile.

Thuairiscigh áisíneacht nuachta an Associated Press ag an am - agus oifigeach faisnéise Meiriceánach tugtha mar údarás acu - gur diúracán Rúiseach a bhí ann.

Poland is a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (ECAT) and the Polish Government has announced that the country's military forces are on standby in view of what happened yesterday, whatever or whoever it was.

Ballstát d'Eagraíocht Chonradh an Atlantaigh Thuaidh (ECAT) is ea an Pholainn agus tá sé fógartha ag Rialtas na Polainne go bhfuil fórsaí míleata na tíre ar fuireachas i bhfianaise ar tharla inné, cibé rud nó dream ba shiocair leis.

G20: world leaders no word on the war in Ukraine.

G20: ceannairí domhanda ar aon fhocal faoin gcogadh san Úcráin.

At the G20 summit in Bali, Indonesia, international leaders are joining together to urge Russia to end the war in Ukraine.

Ag cruinniú mullaigh thíortha an G20 i mBailí san Indinéis, tá ceannairí idirnáisiúnta ag dul i bpáirt le chéile chun tathant ar an Rúis deireadh a chur leis an gcogadh san Úcráin.

In a draft statement, to which Russia's own name has been added, the leaders draw attention to the damage that has been done (in Ukraine and around the world) since Russia invaded Ukraine eight months ago.

I ndréachtráiteas, a bhfuil ainm na Rúise féin curtha leis, tarraingíonn na ceannairi aird ar an damáiste atá déanta (san Úcráin agus ar fud an domhain) ó rinne an Rúis ionradh ar an Úcráin ocht mí ó shin.

The statement also claims that the bases of the G20 countries are clean against invasion.

Maítear sa ráiteas freisin go bhfuil bunáite thíortha an G20 glan in éadan an ionraidh.

In that regard, the statement bluntly states that there is no acceptance of a threat by any country to use nuclear weapons.

Ina cheann sin, deirtear go neamhbhalbh sa ráiteas nach bhfuil aon ghlacadh le bagairt ó aon tír airm núicléacha a úsáid.

That's a subtle reference - but a clear reference nonetheless - to Russian President Vladimir Putin who has recently made a semi-hidden - but also a clear reference - to nuclear weapons.

Sin tagairt chaolchúiseach - ach tagairt shoiléir mar sin féin - d'Uachtarán na Rúise Vladimir Putin a bhfuil tagairt leathcheilte - ach tagairt shoiléir chomh maith - déanta aige d'airm núicléacha le gairid.

Vladimir Putin is not present at the summit but Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov is there instead.

Níl Vladimir Putin i láthair ag an gcruinniú mullaigh ach tá Aire Gnóthaí Eachtracha na Rúise Sergei Lavrov ann ina ionad.

Sergei Lavrov had to endure a strong address from the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky at the meeting last night.

B'éigean do Sergei Lavrov aitheasc láidir ó Uachtarán na hÚcráine Volodymyr Zelensky a fhulaingt ag an gcruinnú aréir.

Speaking by video link, Volodymyr Zelensky appealed to G20 leaders - including US President Joe Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping - to agree with the Russians to pull out of Ukraine.

Ag labhairt dó ar nasc físe, d'achaingh Volodymyr Zelensky ar cheannairí an G20 - Uachtarán na Stát Aontaithe Joe Biden agus Uachtarán na Síne Xi Jinping ina measc - d'achaingh sé orthu tuineadh leis na Rúisigh tarraingt amach as an Úcráin.

By the way, it is reported that Sergei Lavrov was hospitalized twice since his arrival in Bali, but no official information has been given about that.

Tuairiscítear dála an scéil gur cuireadh Sergei Lavrov in ospidéal dhá uair ó tháinig sé go Bailí ach níl aon eolas oifigiúil tugtha faoi sin.

The leaders of the G20 are of one mind about the economic damage that the war in Ukraine has done to every country in the world.

Tá ceannairí an G20 ar aon aigne faoin dochar eacnamaíochta atá déanta ag an gcogadh san Úcráin do gach tír ar domhan.

Food and fuel have been severely depleted since the start of the war and leaders are looking at introducing policies to ease the crisis, the most urgent of which is ending the evil in Ukraine at the moment.

Tá bia agus breosla daoirsithe as cuimse ó thús an chogaidh agus tá na ceannairí ag breathnú ar bheartais a thabhairt isteach leis an ngéarchéim a mhaolú, arb é deireadh a chur leis an olc san Úcráin an ceann is práinní faoi láthair.

Bird Flu on a farm in County Monaghan.

Fliú na nÉan ar fheirm i gContaeMhuineachán.

Tests carried out on a turkey farm in County Monaghan show that some of the birds there have contracted the H5N1 or Bird Flu.

Léiríonn tástálacha atá déanta ar fheirm turcaithe i gContaeMhuineachán go bhfuil an H5N1 nó Fliú na nÉan tolgtha ag roinnt de na héanacha ansin.

A 3 kilometer protection zone has been implemented around the farm.

Tá zón cosanta 3 chíleaméadar curtha i bhfeidhm timpeall ar an bhfeirm.

The farm is close to the border, so the Northern Ireland Department of Agriculture and the Department of Agriculture here are working hand in hand to ensure that this acid does not spread.

Tá an fheirm gar don teorainn, mar sin tá Roinn Talmhaíochta Thuaisceart Éireann agus an Roinn Talmhaíochta anseo ag obair as lámha a chéile lena chinntiú nach scaipeann an aicíd seo.

Up to 3,000 turkeys were tested on the farm this weekend and traces of the flu were found in several of them.

Cuireadh tástáil ar suas le 3,000 turcaí ar an fheirm an deireadh seachtaine seo agus fuarthas rian den fliú i roinnt díobh.

They were all being prepared for the Christmas market.

Bhí siad ar fad á réiteach do mhargadh na Nollag.

However, the entire number must now be disposed of.

Caithfear fáil réidh leis an líon iomlán anois áfach.

Boy convicted in the murder of Uransetseg Tserendorj.

Buachaill ciontaithe i ndúnmharú Uransetseg Tserendorj.

At the Central Criminal Court, a sixteen-year-old boy was found guilty of murdering a 49-year-old woman in Dublin city center last year.

Sa Phríomh-Chúirt Choiriúil, fuarthas ciontach buachaill sé bliana déag d'aois i ndúnmharú mná 49 bliain i lár Bhaile Átha Cliath anuraidh.

The young man, who cannot be named because of his age, was convicted of the murder of Uransetseg Tserendorj in the north of the city on 29 January 2021 while she was on her way home from work.

Ciontaíodh an t- ógánach, nach féidir a ainmniú mar gheall ar a aois, i ndúnmharú Uransetseg Tserendorj i dtuaisceart na cathrach ar an 29 Eanair 2021 agus í ar a bealach abhaile ón obair.

The boy pleaded not guilty to the woman's murder but guilty to manslaughter.

Phléadáil an buachaill neamhchiontach i ndúnmharú na mná ach ciontach ina dúnorgain.

The trial revealed that he admitted to the Gardai that he had robbed her and stabbed her on a walkway between George's Dock and Custom House Quay.

Tugadh le fios sa triail gur admhaigh sé do na Gardaí gur robáil sé í agus gur sháigh sé í ar shiúlán idir Duga Sheoirse agus Cé Theach an Chustaim.

She was said to have been seriously injured and died in hospital nine days after the attack.

Dúradh gur gortaíodh go han-dona í agus gur bhásaigh sí san ospidéal naoi lá i ndiaidh an ionsaithe.

Prosecution counsel Seán Gillane had told the jurors at the start of the trial that they needed to assess the defendant's state of mind when he stabbed the woman.

Bhí sé ráite ag abhcóide an ionchúisimh Seán Gillane leis na giúróirí i dtús na trialach go gcaithfidís measúnú a dhéanamh ar mheon aigne an chúisí nuair a sháigh sé an bhean.

He told them that the boy was fourteen years old at the time and that was also relevant.

Dúirt sé leo go raibh an buachaill ceithre bliana déag ag an am agus gur bhain sé sin le hábhar chomh maith.

It was also revealed in the trial that the boy's parents were heroin addicts and that he himself was an addict when he was born as a result.

Tugadh le fios sa triail freisin gur andúiligh hearóine a bhí i dtuisimitheoirí an bhuachalla agus go raibh sé féin ina andúileach nuair a saolaíodh é dá dheasca sin.

It was his grandmother who trained him, it was said.

Ba í a sheanmháthair a d'oil é, a dúradh.

When the boy was twelve, he started taking drugs himself and resorted to auctioneering to pay for the crack, it was said.

Nuair a bhí an buachaill dhá bhliain déag, thosaigh sé ag glacadh drugaí é féin agus chuaigh sé i muinín na ropaireachta le híoc as an gcraos, a dúradh.

Urantsetseg Tserendorj, who was called Urna by her family and friends, was of Mongolian origin.

Ba de bhunadh na Mongóile í Urantsetseg Tserendorj, ar thug a daoine muinteartha agus a cairde Urna uirthi.

Her husband came to Ireland fifteen years ago and she followed him nine months later.

Tháing a fear céile go hÉirinn cúig bliana déag ó shin agus lean sí é naoi mí ina dhiaidh sin.

They both worked as cleaners, and had a son and a daughter.

Bhí an bheirt acu ag obair mar ghlantóirí, agus bhí mac agus iníon acu.

Inquiry about a video of a bus being driven on a public footpath.

Fiosrúchán faoi fhíseán de bhus á thiomáint ar chosán poiblí.

Bus Átha Cliath has confirmed that the company is conducting an investigation into allegations that a bus was driven on a public footpath and in a cycle lane between Rathfarnán and Tirányur in the south of the city yesterday.

Tá sé deimhnithe ag Bus Átha Cliath go bhfuil fiosrúchán ar bun ag an gcomhlacht faoi líomhaintí gur tiomáineadh bus ar chosán poiblí agus i lána rothar idir Ráth Fearnáin agus Tír an Iúir i ndeisceart na cathrach arú inné.

A video of the incident was taken and published on social media.

Glacadh físeán den eachtra agus foilsíodh é ar na meáin shóisialta.

A spokesperson from Dublin Bus said that the matter "is being investigated and will be investigated in detail."

Dúirt urlabhraí ó Bhus Átha Cliath go bhfuil an scéal "á fhiosrú agus go bhfiosrófar go mion é."

It appears that the bus was driven on the footpath and in the cycle lane, if true, with the intention of overtaking other vehicles.

Dealraíonn sé gur le dúil feithiclí eile a scoitheadh a tiomáineadh an bus ar an gcosán agus sa lána rothar, más fíor.

The matter was mentioned at a meeting of the Dublin City Transport and Traffic Committee last night.

Luadh an scéal ag cruinniú de Choiste Iompair agus Tráchta Chathair Bhaile Átha Cliath aréir.

Councilor Keith Connolly from Fianna Fáil said in the meeting that the Garda Síochána should investigate the situation.

Dúirt an Comhairleoir Keith Connolly ó Fhianna Fáil sa chruinniú gur chóir don Gharda Síochána an scéal a fhiosrú.

Speaking to RTÉ this morning, Keith Connolly said that what had happened was cause for concern and that it was a very serious matter.

Ag labhairt dó le RTÉ ar maidin inniu, dúirt Keith Connolly gur údar imní a bhí sa mhéid a tharla agus gur scéal an-tromchúiseach a bhí ann.

Minister of State for Transport Hildegarde Naughton has since confirmed that the content of the video is being investigated by Gardai.

Tá sé dearbhaithe ag an Aire Stáit sa Roinn Iompair Hildegarde Naughton ó shin go bhfuil ábhar an fhíseáin á fhiosrú ag na Gardaí.

Líomhaintí déanta ag 233 duine in aghaidh Ord an Spioraid Naoimh.

Gardai are investigating allegations of child abuse made against 77 priests from the Order of the Holy Spirit.

Tá líomhaintí faoi mhí-úsáid leanaí atá déanta in aghaidh 77 sagart ó Ord an Spioraid Naoimh á bhfiosrú ag na Gardaí.

The abuse allegedly went on for half a century.

Líomhnaítear go raibh an mhí-úsáid ar bun i gcaitheamh leathchéad bliain.

Detectives from the Sex Crime Management Unit are investigating the allegations.

Bleachtairí ón Aonad Bainistíochta um Choireanna Gnéis atá ag fiosrú na líomhaintí.

That unit is part of the Garda Síochána's National Bureau of Defense Services.

Is cuid de Bhiúró Náisiúnta an Gharda Síochána um Sheirbhísí Cosanta an t-aonad sin.

The Order of the Holy Spirit has revealed that over 233 people have made allegations against specific people from the order in Ireland and abroad.

Tá sé tugtha le fios ag Ord an Spioraid Naoimh go bhfuil líomaintí déanta ag os cionn 233 duine in aghaidh daoine faoi leith ón ord in Éirinn agus thar lear.

57 of those cases relate to Blackrock College in Williamstown, Co Dublin, it was said.

Baineann 57 de na cásanna sin le Coláiste na Carraige Duibhe i mBaile Liam, Co Átha Cliath, a dúradh.

Black Rock College has apologized to former students who suffered sexual abuse at the school.

Tá leithscéal gafa ag Coláiste na Carraige Duibhe le hiardhaltaí a d'fhulaing mí-úsáid ghnéis sa scoil.

The school is deeply ashamed and sorry for what happened, said principal Alan MacGinty in a letter he sent to parents.

Cúis mhór náire agus aiféala don scoil ar tharla, a dúirt an príomhoide Alan MacGinty i litir a sheol sé chuig tuismitheoirí.

The letter also contained a statement from Father Martin Kelly, Provincial of the Order of the Holy Spirit in Ireland.

Bhí ráiteas sa litir freisin ón Athair Martin Kelly, Proibhinseal Ord an Spioraid Naoimh in Éirinn.

Father Kelly asked for forgiveness on behalf of the order for those who suffered abuse.

D'iarr an tAthair Kelly a phardún thar ceann an oird ar an dream a d'fhulaing mí-úsáid.

He promised that the members of the order would do everything they could to help those people and to ensure that students in the order's schools would always be safe in the future.

Gheall sé go ndéanfadh lucht an oird gach arbh fhéidir leo le cabhrú leis na daoine sin agus lena chinntiú go mbeadh daltaí i scoileanna an oird sábháilte choíche feasta.

"Climate change sharpening people towards each other" - Taoiseach.

"Athrú aeráide ag géarú daoine chun a chéile" - Taoiseach.

Taoiseach Micheál Martin has promised that Ireland will do everything it can to ensure that the World is sustainable.

Tá sé geallta ag an Taoiseach Micheál Martin go ndéanfaidh Éire gach ar féidir léi lena chinntiú go mbeidh an Domhan inmharthana.

The Taoiseach made this promise in the address he gave at the international climate change summit taking place in Sharm el-Sheikh in Egypt.

Thug an Taoiseach an gealltanas seo san aitheasc a thug sé ag an gcruinniú mullaigh idirnáisiúnta maidir leis an athrú aeráide atá ar siúl in Sharm el-Sheikh san Éigipt.

Countries that have signed the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change are participating in the summit called COP27.

Tíortha a shínigh Creat-Choinbhinsiún na Náisiún Aontaithe maidir leis an Athrú Aeráide atá páirteach sa chruinniú mullaigh dá ngairmtear COP27.

Micheál Martin also promised in his address that the Irish Government would contribute €10 million to the international fund that has been set up to help vulnerable communities around the world who are greatly affected by climate change.

Gheall Micheál Martin freisin ina aitheasc go gcuirfeadh Rialtas na hÉireann €10 milliún sa chiste idirnáisiúnta atá bunaithe le teacht i gcabhair ar phobail leochaileacha ar fud an domhain a bhfuil an t-athrú aeráide ag dul i gcion go mór orthu.

He said that climate change is pushing people closer together and that communities are competing with each other for scarce resources.

Dúirt sé go bhfuil an t-athrú aeráide ag géarú daoine chun a chéile agus go bhfuil pobail in iomaíocht a chéile d'acmhainní atá gann.

It is contributing to the instability and misery of people around the globe, he said.

Tá sé ag cur le héagobhsaíocht agus le hainnise daoine ar fud na cruinne, ar sé.

If the current leaders do not face the crisis, said the Taoiseach, the rising generation and the generations to come will not forgive them, they will never forgive them.

Mura rachaidh na ceannairí atá ann anois i ndréim leis an ngéarchéim, a dúirt an Taoiseach, ní mhaithfidh an ghlúin atá ag éirí aníos ná na glúine atá le teacht, ní mhaithfidh siad dóibh é go brách.

He pointed out that it is necessary to do more without space in a situation where people will not be deafened by talk that is just talk and will not be bored by words without action.

Thug sé le fios gur den riachtanas é tuilleadh a dhéanamh gan spás i riocht nach mbeidh daoine bodhraithe ag caint nach bhfuil ann ach caint agus nach mbeidh siad leamh de bhriathra gan bheart.

On the contrary, the Taoiseach drew attention to a positive aspect of the forecast of the United Nations in relation to climate change.

Os a choinne sin, tharraing an Taoiseach aird ar ghné bhreacdhearfach de réamhaisnéis na Náisiún Aonaithe maidir leis an athrú aeráide.

According to that forecast, gas emissions will continue to increase from now until 2030 but will remain stable thereafter.

De réir na réamhaisnéise sin, beidh astaíochtaí gáis ag méadú i gcónaí as seo go 2030 ach fanfaidh siad socair ina dhiaidh sin.

This is progress, says Micheál Martin, although it is not enough.

Seo dul chun cinn, arsa Micheál Martin, cé nach leor é.

In relation to Ireland, he informed the audience that this country has a legal obligation to reduce gas emissions by 51% by 2030, and said that legally enforceable emission limits have been set for all sectors of the national economy.

I dtaca le hÉirinn de, chuir sé in iúl don lucht éisteachta go bhfuil dualgas dlíthiúil ar an tír seo astaíochtaí gáis a laghd...

One month today is the date of the great tragedy in Craoslach.

Mí sa lá inniu dáta na tragóide móire sa Chraoslach.

It was exactly a month today that the great tragedy occurred that the community of Craoslach in County Donegal and indeed the community of Ireland in general, will not forget for a long time.

Mí díreach sa lá inniu a tharla an tragóid mhór nach ndéanfaidh an pobal sa Chraoslach i gContaeDhún na nGall ná go deimhin pobal na hÉireann i gcoitinne, dearmad air go ceann i bhfad.

Ten people were killed as a result of the explosion in the Applegreen area of the town.

Maraíodh deichniúr de thoradh na pléisce in ionad Applegreen ar an bhaile.

It's another difficult week for the community of Craoslaigh and the commemorative Masses of the month of the people who were killed take place throughout this week.

Seachtain dheacair eile atá inti do phobal an Chraoslaigh agus Aifrinn chuimhneacháin míosa na ndaoine a maraíodh ar siúl i gcaitheamh na seachtaine seo uilig.

The Priest of Croslaigh Father John Joe Duffy said that the community is still suffering and that families who have lost a family member need space and time.

Dúirt Sagart an Chraoslaigh an tAthair, John Joe Duffy go bhfuil an pobal go fóill ag fulaingt agus go bhfuil spás agus am de dhíth ar theaghlaigh a chaill ball clainne.

The road through that town is still closed as inquiries are still ongoing in relation to the horrific incident that happened on Friday 7 October 2022.

Tá an bóthar thríd an bhaile sin fós dúnta mar go bhfuil fiosrúcháin fós ar bun maidir leis an eachtra uafáis a tharla ar an Aoine , an 7Deireadh Fómhair 2022.

Twitter workers in Ireland let go.

Oibrithe Twitter in Éirinn scaoilte chun bealaigh.

Twitter has let go of some of its employees in Ireland.

Tá Twitter tar éis cuid dá bhfostaithe in Éirinn a scaoileadh chun bealaigh.

An email was sent this morning to certain workers in Dublin, in which they were informed that they are facing redundancy.

Cuireadh ríomhphost ar maidin chuig oibrithe áirithe i mBaile Átha Cliath, inar cuireadh in iúl dóibh go bhfuil iomarcaíocht i ndán dóibh.

The company's office in the capital is temporarily closed and workers are not allowed to enter it.

Tá oifig an chomhlachta sa phríomhchathair dúnta go sealadach agus níl cead ag oibrithe dul isteach inti.

Such an announcement was expected after the new owner, Elon Musk, took control of Twitter.

Bhí súil lena leithéid d'fhógra, i ndiaidh don úinéir nua, Elon Musk, smacht a ghlacadh ar Twitter.

Management had already said that workers would be informed by 09:00 today (or 16:00 Irish time) of cuts.

Bhí sé ráite chean féin ag an mbainistíocht go gcuirfí oibrithe ar an eolas faoi 09:00 inniu am Mheirceá (nó 16:00 am na hÉireann) maidir le ciorruithe.

Twitter employed approximately 500 people in Dublin.

Bhí thart ar 500 duine fostaithe ag Twitter i mBaile Átha Cliath.

"I woke up this morning to the news that I was no longer employed by the company", wrote one former Irish employee on Twitter.

"Dhúísigh mé ar maidin don scéal nach raibh mé fostaithe sa chomhlacht níos mó", a scríobh iarfhostaí Éireannach amháin ar Twitter.

It is understood that employees facing redundancy have been locked out of the company's email system, and other internal systems.

Tuigtear go bhfuil fostaithe a bhfuil iomarcaíocht i ndán dóibh glasáilte amach as córas ríomhphoist an chomhlachta, agus as córais inmheánacha eile.

It is not yet clear how many workers have been let go from the Dublin office.

Ní léir go fóill cé mhéad oibrí a scaoileadh chun bealaigh ón oifig i mBaile Átha Cliath.

But Twitter is understood to be planning to cut 50% of its workforce worldwide.

Ach tuigtear go bhfuil sé i gceist ag Twitter 50 faoin gcéad dá bhfórsa oibre a chiorrú ar fud an domhain.

Tech industry experts say cuts are to be made to specific teams, rather than geographically.

Deir saineolaithe ón tionscal teicneolaíochta go bhfuil ciorruithe le déanamh ar fhoirne ar leith, seachas le bheith déanta ar bhonn tíreolaíochta.
