Twenty-four Romanian men were removed from Ireland on a charter flight, according to officials. The men were detained under immigration rules and were transported back to Romania. The deportation was confirmed by Jim O’Callaghan, a government spokesperson.

The group was identified as being in breach of immigration laws, and their removal was part of a coordinated effort to address illegal immigration. The flight departed from Dublin Airport, with officials confirming the men were processed through the immigration system. No further details were provided on the reasons for their detention or the duration of their stay in Ireland.

This follows a recent increase in the number of deportations from Ireland, as authorities continue to tighten border controls. The government has been under pressure to address concerns over illegal immigration, particularly from Eastern European countries. The deportation of the Romanian men is part of a broader strategy to enforce immigration laws and reduce the number of unauthorized arrivals.
