Ireland bans two Israeli ministers from entering country: Ministry

Ireland on Friday barred Israel’s national security minister and finance minister from entering the country over the war in Gaza. Justice Minister Jim O’Callaghan “has instructed immigration officers to refuse entry to Itamar Ben-Gvir — Minister for National Security of Israel, and Bezalel Smotrich, Minister of Finance of Israel — should they seek to enter the state,” said a justice ministry statement sent to AFP.
