Ógra Shinn Féin National Weekend of Action for IRA POWs

Ógra Shinn Féin got active across Ireland in the past weekend to demand the immediate release of IRA Prisoners of War, some of whom qualify under the terms of the GFA for release and all because the leadership of Óglaidh na hÉireann formally called an end to their armed campaign over 3 years ago.

Leaflet drops, postering, information stalls, protests, vigils and public talks where organised throughout the 32 counties and the weekend of action was also used to highlight the plight of international prisoners in the Basque Country, Leonard Peltier, Miami 5 and Pól Brennan, who is currently fighting deportion from the US.

Other actions have taken place througout December, and more are scheduled to take place before Christmas.
