Thank you to everyone who came out to Doonbeg from near and far, including Donegal and the Aran Islands. Every kite we put in the air was flown in solidarity with the children of Gaza, carrying a message of love and support from Ireland. Thank you all for standing with us. 🪁🇵🇸☘️

We came together again in Doonbeg for a kite flying day beside Trump Hotel. With kites now banned in Gaza, flying them this year felt more important than ever. Proud that we were also able to raise some funds for a great cause. @neartnur 🪁❤️ 🇵🇸

On new Year's Eve 2024 all the Clare solidarity groups came together to show our support for Dr Hussam Abu Safiyah

I can't believe we are still here in July 2026 asking for his release from imminent death.

We ask all our leaders to speak up and put pressure on for his release

Eisteacht were delighted to be asked to perform last night at the @clare_ipsc public meeting where the amazing @lubnahshomali spoke and answered questions.

We were so grateful to Lubnah for her time and advocacy.

We marched in #solidarity with Palestine again yesterday as part of the Ennis, County Clare #stpatricksday parade.
(Three different angles in this video)

Shout out to @dr.christina_geniusjuniors for the extra footage as we didn't think to record much of anything ourselves!

Thank you @nenaghfriendspalestine and Hunger for justice group for inviting us to sing at the presentation last night.

We were so honoured to sing and be part of your fantastic event.

To see almost 250k being handed out to so many different charities was amazing.

Hearing each group's story and words of resilience was humbling.

We gathered for a powerful conversation on Ireland’s neutrality and the triple lock.
We began with beautiful songs that set the tone for reflection and solidarity.
The discussion that followed explored the triple lock and the importance of protecting our long-standing policy of neutrality.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined, sang, and spoke for peace.
