YouTube Description
as posted by the channelProtests erupted in Northern Ireland yesterday after graphic footage of a stabbing attack in the capital, Belfast, was shared widely online. A Sudanese man has been charged with attempted murder following the attack. Right-wing commentators and online critics, including billionaire Elon Musk, posted about the attack and called for protests hours before the violence erupted, with riots forcing some to flee their homes.
Politicians called for calm after a video of the attack circulated on social media. Northern Ireland’s first minister, Michelle O’Neill, said that “groups of masked men” were “burning families out of their homes” and called it, “outright thuggery.” And she warned that there were “dangerous attempts” to exploit the stabbing attack.
