Group staging sunrise-to-sunset action wants Bill passed ‘as per the original text’
A sunrise-to-sunset protest outside Leinster House is urging the Irish government to fast-track the Occupied Territories Bill, aimed at banning trade in goods from Israeli-occupied Palestinian territories. Protesters criticize government inaction on the bill, originally introduced in 2018, despite international rulings against the occupation. The government acknowledges "major legal issues" requiring significant amendments, delaying the bill's progress.
