"As journalists we are on the front lines
and when we fail to hold the line
the people we serve
lose their rights
their freedoms
their lives
So we are jailed, killed, silenced...
Keep doing, keep going...

Remembering those killed in the IRA bomb in Enniskillen on this day in 1987, and the many others whose lives were changed forever. Thinking of the victims, their families and all those injured or traumatised, and remembering the courage shown by Fermanagh people in the aftermath.

Six out of seven journalist killings worldwide are not brought to justice.
According to @UNESCO's latest report, the global impunity rate increased by one percentage point to 86% in 2026, interrupting a long-term decline from 95% in 2012, largely due to escalating conflicts.
Ending impunity is essential to protecting journalists, safeguarding #PressFreedom and ensuring the public's right to information.

Hoy Cantabria honra a 80 mártires del siglo XX, cuyo testimonio de fe y perdón merece nuestro respeto y reconocimiento.
Su memoria nos recuerda que ninguna ideología ni diferencia puede justificar la violencia.
Paz, libertad y convivencia. Ese es su legado.

My Dad was only 20 years old when was killed in Normandy in August 1944 two months before I was born.
He was younger than three of my grandchildren are now.
He has always been a hero to me.

For more than 80 years, the @UN Charter has helped to prevent a third world war.
It lays down the same rule for everyone: to respect the sovereignty, territorial integrity & political independence of every State.
No exceptions.
No double standards.
Because that is what peace is: power subject to the law.

Statement on the sentencing of Joshua Wong
from the foreign ministries of Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
What a travesty of Justice:
You sentence Joshua Wong to 10 more years in prison when he's 2 months away from being released.

Fond memories of Eamonn’s lopsided grin, improbable surprises and big red book … seemed a genuinely nice guy
#OnThisDay 5 November 1987
The broadcaster #EamonnAndrews died aged 64. A sports commentator and then host of a myriad of different shows, including Today, Crackerjack and What's My Line, it is probably as host of This Is Your Life that he is best remembered.
