Read about the incredible life and influence of Irish priest Hugh O'Flaherty who saved over 6,500 allied soldiers and Jews during WWII. O'Flaherty was born #onthisday in 1898.
Every evening Fr Hugh O'Flaherty stood on the steps of St Peter's Basilica in view of armed German soldiers, making himself available to Jews, dissidents, deserters & Allied soldiers. More than 4,000 escaped with his help. He was born #OTD 1898. dib.ie/biography/oflaherty-h… #DIBLives

The world has been changed by this unjustified war on #Ukraine.
It’s people have shown such courage, in the face of great loss of life and destruction.
Ireland’s humanitarian response will not be found wanting.
The EU is unified and further sanctions will hit Russia hard.
