A far-right group calling itself the Irish Defence Army planned to firebomb the Maryam Mosque on Monivea Road, Galway, between 4 and 5 November 2025. Gardaí foiled the plot when a drugs unit stopped a car in Portlaoise, Co Laois, on 4 November 2025 and found pipe bomb components, weapons and a group manifesto. Garrett Pollock, 36, from Co Down; Karolis Peckauskas, 39, a Lithuanian national from Co Louth; and Darren Gorman, 34, from Co Laois, pleaded guilty at the Special Criminal Court in June 2026, while co-accused Charles Flynn, 35, from Co Limerick, remains charged.
