Last week, we heard of the terrible murder of well-respected international journalist, Shireen Abu Akleh. This was a deliberate and targeted murder by Israeli occupation forces that violated international law. We did not see the opening of borders or the allocation of accommodation for Palestinian people fleeing conflict. We did not see Israel excluded from the Eurovision Song Contest along with Russia, despite its war crimes. We did not see the same media outcry regarding the Israeli occupation forces shocking attack at Shireen's funeral procession. This is not good enough. We need to do much more to assist and stand up for the people of Palestine, who are suffering under Israeli occupation.

Will the Taoiseach commit to treating all refugees fleeing war with the same compassion, and will he at least urge the United States' Government to end its $3.8 billion annual funding to the Israeli military and campaign against the EU support for the Israeli regime?

Deputy Pringle should acknowledge the European Union support of Palestine, which is very strong.

Does it equal the support for the Israelis?

I just note the partisan management of the presentation in terms of the European Union. The European Union is the biggest donor to Palestine, and it strongly supports the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, UNRWA, as does the Government, which is the most effective and important relief organisation for Palestinians. That all gets forgotten in the presentation.

Equally, Ireland has continued to meet its obligations in respect of refugees from all conflict areas, as it has done in the past, including Syria. The war in Ukraine is the worst historical humanitarian crisis since the Second World War. I am not saying that; the United Nations is saying it. Hence, the unprecedented nature of the effort that is being made.
