Comprehensive Fiosrú and Garda investigations are urgently needed into the actions of private security and gardaí ending in Yves Sakila’s death. Video suggests excessive use of force. His family, friends and the Congolese and African communities need truth and justice to prevail.

Who fired the tomahawk missile at the school in Minab? @Stone_SkyNews asked the US Admiral in charge of the war. It's after Sky News reported from the Iranian city where more than 150 people, including 120 children, were killed in a strike on the first day of the war.

Thank you Mr Kapos.

The #Nakba is not history. It is continuing before our eyes today. For Palestinians, every day is Nakba Day. Today we stood in solidarity in Belfast. [pic @stu_bailie] @Belfast_IPSC

Racist violence ‘spiralling out of control’ as four race hate crimes a day reported to PSNI - @irish_news The number of race hate crimes being reported to the PSNI has reached unprecedented levels with new figures showing an average of four reported every day.

Ballymena riots: PSNI made no child exploitation referrals despite concerns @TheDetailTV PSNI also said individuals associated with paramilitary groups had been present during the disorder, although officers said it was unclear who was coordinating events thedetail.tv/articles/psni-…

PSNI did not refer a single child arrested during the Ballymena racist riots into the government mechanism to identify victims of child criminal exploitation. At the time, police said they had “absolutely” seen “people who were directing young people” to commit violence.

'Something fundamentally wrong' with legacy body Former police ombudsman Nuala O'Loan was speaking after a 'damning' review into the operation of the Independent Commission for Reconciliation and Information Recovery (ICRIR). bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Baroness O’Loan said the ICRIR was deliberately ‘set up to fail’ by the last government, which had limited its ability to carry out full investigations. ‘I think that the only answer is that the Labour government really should do what they said they would do and start again.’

TalkTV pays ‘substantial damages’ to NI drag act in defamation settlement linked to children’s story time row -@BelTel belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/northern-…

@TalkTV paying substantial damages & making a public apology to Marcus Hunter-Neill is a huge vindication against the smear campaign targeting drag performers and LGBTQ+ people. People spreading lies - and politicians jumping on the bandwagon - should reflect on the outcome 🌈📚

@AdamMcGibbon @EdinburghGreens @lornaslater Congratulations - what a result.

Much more to say later after some sleep - but its been a blast running @EdinburghGreens' 2026 Scottish Parliament campaign - @lornaslater makes history as the Greens' first Holyrood constituency seat. These people and many more - a dream team! 🥰

‘This is harming people’: GP urges politicians to make good on pledge over scandal of conversion therapy Doctor from Presbyterian background damning of church’s shortcomings when dealing with gay men @AmandaFBelfast belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/this-is-h… belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/this-is-h…

Disappointing day at the Supreme Court for victims; we now look to Parliament to defend their rights. However, as Prof McCrudden notes below, the Court has also confirmed Article 2, Windsor Framework is capable of direct effect in UK law to challenge diminution of rights in NI.

In an age of cowardice and calculated silence, Francesca Albanese speaks with moral clarity. As UN Special Rapporteur, she faces smears and intimidation, simply for insisting that Palestinian lives carry the same dignity and protections under international law as every other. 👏

Congratulations to Caolán Magee @caomag11 for winning the Gaby Rado Award for a new journalist at the #AmnestyMediaAwards for his international reporting for @AJEnglish, particularly from the Middle East. 👏
