Easter Rising commemoration draws thousands in Dublin
Irish president lays wreath at spot where 15 rebels were executed before taking salute at GPO building
Thousands of people are attending the Irish government’s official commemoration in Dublin of the 1916 Easter Rising against British rule.
More than 3,500 members of Ireland’s defence forces paraded past the exact spot where a century ago the rebellion began – Dublin’s General Post Office (GPO).
In one of the first ceremonies, the Irish president, Michael Higgins, lay a wreath at the spot where 15 rebels were executed for their part in the rebellion. In a poignant ceremony at the Stonebreakers’ Yard in Dublin’s Kilmainham gaol, the president was flanked by a military guard of honour drawn from the defence forces cadet school.
