Police in the Republic of Ireland have removed fuel protesters from various sites, including O'Connell Street in Dublin and Galway port, due to ongoing blockades over rising fuel costs linked to the US-Israel war with Iran. The protests have lasted six days, causing fuel shortages across the country. Gardaí have enforced clearances at critical infrastructure to ensure fuel supply for emergency services. Taoiseach Micheál Martin warned of severe consequences if blockades continue, while opposition leader Mary Lou McDonald urged the government to negotiate with protesters.
