Dublin, Ireland — Friday, Nov 13, 2026. Shortly after 2:20 p.m. Irish time, Gardaí were called to an office building on Merrion Square North. Army bomb disposal — the Defence Forces Explosive Ordnance Disposal team — made safe a device that Gardaí called “crude but viable.” Nearby buildings were evacuated, and a security cordon stayed in place for hours; the area was later reopened. The square is next to the National Gallery of Ireland, where Taoiseach Micheál Martin hosted a dinner for European leaders on Thursday night after the European Political Community summit. Gardaí have said the National Gallery itself was not the target and was not evacuated. Nobody was reported hurt. A Garda investigation is under way. No suspect or motive has been announced. The Irish Times reports that, on examination, the device was made of fireworks components and an accelerant in a bottle. That description was not in the official Garda statement, and it has not been independently confirmed. Online posts naming specific people should be ignored. Presenter is AI-generated.
