Description

property attack by Official IRA members in 1972

The British Embassy in Dublin at 39 Merrion Square was destroyed by arson on 2 February 1972. This occurred during demonstrations outside the chancery by a large crowd, due to their outrage and animosity against the British government following the Bloody Sunday massacre in Derry on 30 January 1972, when the British Army's Parachute Regiment shot dead 14 unarmed Catholic civilians during a civil rights demonstration.
