️🇮🇪🇮🇱 - The Irish police (Gardaí) purchased military-grade anti-drone jammers from the Tel Aviv company Sentrycs for EU presidency events, despite the Irish government's stated policy against purchasing products manufactured in Israel, according to the newspaper.
► The counter drone equipment, installed on rooftops to engage unauthorized drones, was obtained through an American supplier but was designed and built entirely by Israel. It is operated by the Garda Special Tactics Operations Command.
Mekorot defended the purchase, calling it "the best you can buy" and noting the difficulty of obtaining a high-tech security kit without Israeli involvement. The purchase contradicts a commitment from the year 2024 by Tánaiste Michael Martin at the time that Ireland would not buy a kit containing Israeli products.
