Far-Right Incitement of Anti-Migrant Riot in Dublin
Far-right social media figures exploited an alleged sexual assault in Dublin to incite mass violence against asylum seekers and migrants.
A failed asylum seeker was accused of a sexual assault, which far-right agitators used as a pretext for violence. Protests and confrontations with police ensued, with up to 1,000 demonstrators surrounding the CityWest Hotel in Saggart, outside Dublin.
According to Irish broadcaster RTE, the first report of the incident at the CityWest Hotel was a social media post at 8:25 a.m. on Monday, which gained 136,000 views. By early afternoon, media reported that a man had been arrested for an alleged assault on a young girl.
