This video documents a public demonstration near the Citywest Hotel in west Dublin, which is used for refugee and asylum-seeker accommodation under Ireland’s IPAS system.
The gathering formed part of the wider debate on immigration, community safety and State housing policy. Garda units attended to maintain order and manage the crowd. Parts of the demonstration became chaotic and were later described by some outlets as a riot
The footage shows the scene as it unfolded, including Garda response measures and moments of high tension. The purpose of this video is documentation — not endorsement — to provide an accurate record of events in Ireland’s capital.
Reporters from several outlets, including Rebel News and GB News, were present to cover the demonstration.
