I welcome the Taoiseach's strong condemnation. I agree that all hostages should be released immediately. I also welcome his condemnation of air strikes. However, I asked the Taoiseach about the issue at hand, which is that parts of fighter jets are being transported illegally through Irish airspace to Israel. These fighter jets are then being used to drop bombs on people in Gaza through the air strikes which the Taoiseach has rightly condemned. These are bombs on men, women and children, on paramedics and on aid workers. Is the Government investigating the reports which have been published about our airspace being used for the illegal transport of munitions to Israel? Will it act to stop these illegal transports of munitions to Israel?
