A commemoration has taken place in Dublin City to mark the 49th anniversary of the Dublin-Monaghan bombings.
It took place on Talbot Street at midday.
Thirty three people, and one unborn child, were killed on this day in 1974.
It was after three loyalist car bombs exploded almost simultaneously in Dublin.
A fourth bomb exploded in Monaghan shortly afterwards.
To the family and friends of those killed, and survivors of the Dublin & Monaghan bombings, I pay tribute to your strength and absolute commitment to finding the truth.
You’re not forgotten.
You’re not invisible.
My Government stands in solidarity with you. @JFForgotten pic.twitter.com/NWwda7wb5D— Micheál Martin (@MichealMartinTD) May 17, 2023
Cathaoirleach of Monaghan County Council, Seán Conlon, has called on the British and Irish Governments to find justice for the victims.
He said: "We must at every opportunity, and when we are busy building relationships across the Irish sea, we must never forget to take the opportunity.
"There are matters outstanding, no matter of all the glitz and glamour.
"The people of Dublin and Monaghan, and all the atrocities committed in direct collusion with British authorities, must be solved. "
