NEW MURALS HAVE appeared in Belfast as Loyalist and Republican groups take rival positions of support for Israel and Palestine.
The first Belfast mural about the Gaza conflict was painted on the Falls Road last week.
It called for the “immediate expulsion of all Israeli diplomats from Éire”.
Three new pro Palestine murals have appeared since then, the most controversial of which is on the Falls Road.
It shows the Irish flag and the Palestine flag and states: “Oppression breeds resistance”.
Israeli flags can also be seen in Cluan Place, Belfast.
The United Nations OCHA is reporting that 1,784 people have been killed so far in the conflict.
Sixty-seven Israelis and 1,717 Palestinians.
It was reported today that a child was killed and 30 people wounded in an Israeli air strike on a refugee camp in Gaza City – just minutes into an Israeli-declared truce.
