Significant turnout at rally against links between University of Galway and Israeli IT

There was a significant turnout at a rally at University of Galway this afternoon, protesting the links between it and an Israeli IT.

The university is co-ordinating an EU funded research project on seawater, and one of the participants is Technion, based in Northern Israel.

But students says this rows back on the recommendations made by a university-commissioned report last year on links with Israeli institutions.

When asked for a statement, the University of Galway said the research project is under review.
