As the offensive in Gaza continues to intensify, more and more Irish people are taking to the streets to make their views known.

One such protest took place yesterday at the Department of Foreign Affairs.

Following an unscheduled march down Grafton Street, it made its way to the Dáil on Kildare Street for speeches and a reading of the names of the dead.

It also included what is being billed as 'a mass die-in' - which saw all the participants lie down in front of the Dail.
