Along with the dual nationals from Bolivia and Colombia. Think you can figure out why Israel would be taking steps to be even more evil in this case?

An estimated 8,000 foreign and dual nationals, and their immediate dependents, are trying to leave Gaza, a DFA spokeswoman said.

“The evacuations are being managed country by country on a phased basis, it will take some time for this process to be completed,” she said. “Irish citizens are not included in today’s list, but we continue to urgently seek to have Irish citizens included on the list in the coming days.

Maybe you should have mentioned this too?

Why aren't they on the list currently? What is stopping the process from being allowed for all citizens of other nations? Other than bloodlust, that is...

the Irish know how to fix this kind of situation. can't have them gettin out and ruining a perfectly good genocide ya know.

Israel keeps claiming that Hamas and Egypt are the reason foreign nationals aren't leaving, but this is yet another example of evidence against Israel. Ireland has been outspoken about its opinions as a nation and Israel isn't mature enough to deal with that. Reminds me that incident during the Eurovision held in Israel when a band was given shitty treatment and the worst plane seats for supporting Palestinians and raising the flag in during the contest itself.

I assume that they mean Colombia; those countries have cut diplomatic ties with Israel.
