Around a thousand protesters have taken part in a march demanding urgent Government action and sanctions against Israel in Dublin city centre.

Organised by the Dublin branch of the Ireland-Palestine Solidarity Campaign (IPSC), protesters assembled at Barnardo Square beside City Hall before marching to the Department of Foreign Affairs on St Stephen's Green.

The event featured a rally with guest speakers and live performances.

It is part of a coordinated weekend of regional protests across Ireland.

Among the campaign's primary demands for this mobilisation include enacting the Occupied Territories Bill, an immediate arms embargo and a halt to the US military use of Shannon Airport.

More protests are scheduled to take place across many towns and cities later and tomorrow.
