Joe Cole reveals his Chelsea x Man United combined XI 👀

Óglaigh na hÉireann can confirm that a Polish member of IRISHPOLBATT has sustained minor injuries after their patrol was targeted by a roadside device which detonated as their vehicle passed it. Irish personnel of the Quick Reaction Force were launched immediately to secure the scene and the casualty was evacuated to UNP 2-45. The casualty was then brought from UNP 2-45 to a medical facility using the Irish armoured ambulance and medics. This incident highlights the professionalism, preparedness and training of our Army personnel deployed to UNIFIL, who continue to operate in a volatile region. All Irish personnel are well and accounted for. The Irish Defence Forces remains resolute in its commitment to UNIFIL and acting as the eyes and ears of the international community as the conflict continues.

Óglaigh na hÉireann notes with deep sadness the passing of Ronnie Delany, Olympic gold medallist and a true inspiration to generations. A member of the 28th Cadet Class in 1953, Ronnie maintained a lifelong connection with the Cadet School. In 2000, he presented a National Flag that had flown over the medal podium at the 1956 Melbourne Olympic Games, where he secured gold in the 1,500m. A symbol that continues to inspire Cadets to this day. That same flag, preserved for over four decades, now holds pride of place in the Cadets’ Mess, representing excellence, dedication and national pride. Ronnie Delany’s legacy endures not only in Irish sporting history, but within the spirit and ethos of our Cadets. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dílis.
