Taoiseach Simon Harris pays tribute to the 10 people who lost their lives on this day two years ago in the Creeslough tragedy.
“My thoughts are with the Creeslough community today, particularly those who were injured in the devastating explosion and the families and friends of the 10 people who lost their lives.
The people of Donegal and indeed the entire country will never forget the shock and sadness that emerged on what can only be described as one of the darkest days for our country.
We also remember the rescue workers responding that day and in the aftermath and the whole community coming together to support each other.
The second anniversary today serves as a poignant reminder of the fragility of life.
Ar dheis Dé go raibh a n-anamacha dílse.”
