Irish officials working to ensure release of kidnapped Irish woman in Haiti, says Tánaiste

LAST UPDATE | 16 mins ago AN IRISHWOMAN IS among nine people kidnapped from an orphanage near the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince yesterday. The victims were taken from the Sainte-Helene orphanage in the commune of Kenscoff, about 10km southeast of the capital. Among them was Gena Heraty, an Irish missionary who oversees the orphanage – operated by the humanitarian organisation 'Nos Petits Freres et Soeurs' ('Our Little Brothers and Sisters'). Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs Simon Harris said that he has spoken to Heraty's family today. 'This morning, I had a good conversation with Gena's sister Noreen and I assured her that all is being done to ensure Gena's release,' he said in a statement 'My Department is in close contact with the Heraty family, local authorities and Nos Petits Frères et Sœurs, the organisation Gena works for. The country's two ambassadors are also in close contact. 'We will continue to leave no stone unturned to ensure Gena and her colleagues are released.' Kenscoff Mayor Masillon Jean said of the kidnapping, 'The attackers broke into the orphanage around 3:30am [local time] without opening fire,' calling it a 'planned act.' 'They broke through a wall to enter the property before heading to the building where the director was staying, leaving with nine hostages.' Advertisement No demands or ransom requests have been made, though Heraty called the organisation early Sunday to confirm she was among the kidnapped, a source close to the organisation told news organisation AFP. Heraty has lived in Haiti since 1993. Originally from Westport, Co Mayo, she graduated from UL with a BBS degree in 1991. 'My first job was as a volunteer with the Simon Community in Dublin' she recalled to University of Limerick, of which she is an alum, 'and that's where I really became interested in the overseas voluntary work of Our Little Brothers and Sisters charity'. What started as a six-month placement in Haiti in 1993 turned into a lifetime commitment led Heraty to dedicate herself to the orphanage which she now runs. It cares for up to 270 children. Her sister and brother-in-law are on the Faculty at the Kemmy Business School at UL. She is the latest foreign missionary to become the victim of kidnapping in Haiti. A spokesperson for the Department of Foreign Affairs said that the department is aware of the case and is proving consular assistance. In April 2021, two French priests were among ten people kidnapped in Croix des Bouquets before they were released nearly three weeks later. The same group behind that kidnapping, the '400 Mawazo' gang, took a group of 17 American and Canadian missionaries hostage six months later. Since the start of this year, Kenscoff has found itself in the crosshairs of the 'Viv Ansanm' ('Living Together') gang, which has already taken control of several other localities.

Man appears in court charged with vandalising two aircraft at RAF Brize Norton in ‘£7m Palestine Action attack'

Taxpayers likely to pick up bill for damage, court told IN THE DOCK Man appears in court charged with vandalising two aircraft at RAF Brize Norton in '£7m Palestine Action attack' A MAN has appeared in court charged with vandalising two aircraft at RAF Brize Norton in an alleged £7million attack by Palestine Action. Muhammad Umer Khalid, 22, was held after the base in Oxfordshire was targeted on June 20. 3 Muhammad Umer Khalid has been charged over the alleged attack on RAF Brize Norton Credit: ITV News Two Voyager planes suffered £7million worth of damage in the protest, which was claimed by group Palestine Action. The Government later moved to proscribe the group under anti-terror laws. Khalid appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court today charged with conspiracy to commit criminal damage. He is also accused of conspiracy to enter a prohibited place knowingly for purposes prejudicial to the safety or interests of the United Kingdom. The court was told the two jet engines had to be replaced following the demonstration at a cost of £2.5million each which is likely to be paid by the taxpayer. Fire extinguishers marked with the words Palestine Action and Palestinian flags were recovered at the scene, it was said. Prosecutor Peter Ratliff said the protesters used e-scooters to travel to the RAF base. They then allegedly sprayed a "significant quantity of red paint into the engine of each aircraft", he added. The court heard Khalid, who is a British citizen born in Manchester, was held at an address in Bedfordshire on Friday. Khalid waved and saluted towards friends and family in the public gallery as he was led away from dock, with some blowing kisses back in response. The group could then be heard chanting and waving Palestine flags outside the court after the hearing ended. Khalid was remanded into custody ahead of his next appearance at the Old Bailey on August 22. He is the fifth person to be charged in connection with the incident. Last month, Amy Gardiner-Gibson, 29, Jony Cink, 24, Daniel Jeronymides-Norie, 35, and Lewie Chiaramello, 22, appeared in court. They were remanded in custody ahead of a plea and trial preparation hearing at the Old Bailey on January 16, 2026. The Ministry of Defence had said at the time of the incident: "The UK's defence estate is vital to our national security and this government will not tolerate those who put that security at risk. "This Government is taking the strong step of proscribing Palestine Action due to its activities, which are a threat to our national security." 3 Two Voyager aircraft were damaged Credit: Unpixs
