An Israeli-operated cargo plane flew through Irish sovereign airspace this year loaded with explosives on the way to the Israel Defense Forces, according to documents obtained by The Ditch.

An Israeli-operated cargo plane has flown through Irish sovereign airspace three times this year on its way to the US to collect Israel Defence Forces (IDF) weaponry.

The state is facilitating an Israeli cargo plane using Irish airspace to pick up Israel Defense Forces (IDF) weaponry from the United States.

The state has required engineers working on the mica scheme to submit draft reports and receive guidance from the Housing Agency before final reports are accepted. These reports have been crucial in affected homeowners being awarded grants they maintain are inadequate.

Engineers say the state’s standard for assessing mica redress grants – which is being used to downgrade affected homeowners to cheaper options – isn’t appropriate and isn’t grounded in science.
