- Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Defence Forces (17 Oct 2024)
Matt Carthy: I want to put on the record of this House the universal sentiment of the Irish people that we are incredibly and rightfully proud of the men and women of the Irish Defence Forces who are serving with distinction in Lebanon as part of the UNIFIL peacekeeping mission.

Micheál Martin: It is a very serious situation. It is incomprehensible that Israel or the IDF would put UN peacekeepers generally in harm's way and in some incidents, as the Deputy outlined, UN peacekeepers were injured as a result of such activity.
