An Iranian flag that has appeared on the Camlough Road beside Derrybeg in Newry has been claimed by the Republican Party Saoradh.
In a statement from their website a spokesperson said:
“Saoradh activists in Newry have raised the flag of the Islamic Republic of Iran in a public act of solidarity, expressing support for the Iranian people and government as they defend themselves against ongoing Israeli aggression. This symbolic gesture reflects our broader commitment to standing with nations and movements resisting Zionist colonial expansionism and Western imperialism.”
“In a further act of solidarity Saoradh have delivered a statement to the Iranian Embassy in Dublin expressing our support without apology of the right of Iran and the wider Axis of Resistance to defend itself.”
