    jQuery(document).ready(function(){ cab.clickify(); }); Original Podcast with clickable words https://tinyurl.com/22u5rrxg Contact: irishlingos@gmail.com Six surfers rescued in Donegal. Seisear clárchéaslóirí tugtha slán i nDún na nGall. Rescue services rescued six people who were surfing off the west coast of Donegal yesterday evening. Thug na seirbhísí tarrthála slán seisear a bhí ag clárchéaslóireacht amach ó chósta thiar Dhún na nGall tráthnóna arú inné. The six were windsurfing around Broad Island off the Greenstone when the wind picked up (strengthened). Bhí an seisear ag clárchéaslóireacht thart ar an Oileán Leathan amach ón gCloch Ghlas nuair a neartaigh an ghaoth. They managed to land on the rocks and decided to wait there until it dried up. D’éirigh leo dul i dtír ar na carraigeacha agus shocraigh siad fanacht ansin nó go dtráfadh sé. However, they became cold over time, and called the rescue services in Malin Head at around 2 o’clock yesterday morning. Tháinig fuacht orthu le himeacht ama, áfach, agus chuir siad fios ar na seirbhísí tarrthála i gCionn Mhálanna ag thart ar 2 a chlog ar maidin inné. The Arranmore lifeboat was sent out to sea and it is said that its journey was difficult, with strong winds, heavy rain and the boats breaking in the stern. Cuireadh bád tarrthála Árainn Mhór chun na farraige agus deirtear gurbh achrannach an t-aistear a bhí aici, idir an ghaoth láidir, an bháisteach throm agus na hólaithe a bhí ag briseadh i ndeireadh an bháid. The boat’s crew found the six shortly afterwards, with the help of a boat crew from Bunbeg, and brought them to the mainland. Tháinig criú an bháid ar an seisear go gairid ina dhiaidh sin, le cabhair ó chriú báid as an mBun Beag, agus tugadh iad chun na míntíre. The six were medically assessed at a residence in Clough Glas, where they were confirmed to be in good health. Rinneadh measúnú leighis ar an seisear i dteach cónaithe sa Chloch Ghlas, áit ar deimhníodh go raibh siad ina sláinte. RTÉ News and Current Affairs Nuacht agus Cúrsaí Reatha RTÉ

    20260807_IRISH__dha_scaglann_ola_sa_ruis_ionsaithe_ag_an_ucrain

    jQuery(document).ready(function(){ cab.clickify(); }); Original Podcast with clickable words https://tinyurl.com/2dxvycyh Contact: irishlingos@gmail.com Two oil refineries in Russia attacked by Ukraine. Dhá scaglann ola sa Rúis ionsaithe ag an Úcráin. Two oil refineries in Russia were reportedly damaged in drone attacks carried out by Ukrainian military forces overnight. Tuairiscítear go ndearnadh damáiste do dhá scaglann ola sa Rúis in ionsaithe drón a rinne fórsaí míleata na hÚcráine orthu i gcaitheamh na hoíche. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that two refineries in Bashkortostan in southern Russia and in Yaroslavl northeast of Moscow were attacked. Thug Uachtarán na hÚcráine Volodymyr Zelensky le fios gur ionsaíodh an dá scaglann i mBaiscíria i ndeisceart na Rúise agus in Yaroslavl soir ó thuaidh ó Mhoscó. According to authorities in Yaroslavl, nearly 100 drones were intercepted before they reached the refinery, but debris from the drones caused damage to the site. Dar leis na húdaráis in Yaroslavl gur idircheapadh beagnach 100 drón sular bhain siad an scaglann amach ach go ndearna smionagar ó na dróin damáiste don áit. Zelensky said that the Russians are financing the war in Ukraine with proceeds from the oil sector and that the damage caused by the attacks on the two refineries was a thorn in their side. Dúirt Zelensky go maoiníonn na Rúisigh an cogadh san Úcráin le fáltas ón earnáil ola agus gur dris chosáin acu an díobháil a rinne na hionsaithe don dá scaglann. Zelensky also claimed that Ukraine shot down drones with military boats and other vessels belonging to Russia in the Black Sea. Mhaígh Zelensky freisin gur scaoil an Úcráin dróin le báid mhíleata agus le soithigh eile leis an Rúis sa Mhuir Dhubh. It is understood that the other vessels were tankers carrying oil for illegal sale on the international market. Tuigtear gur tancaeir a bhí sna soithigh eile a bhí ag iompar ola lena dhíol go neamhdhleathach ar an margadh idirnáisiúnta. In Ukraine, eleven people were reportedly killed in attacks carried out by Russians on various parts of the country. San Úcráin, tuairiscítear gur maraíodh aon duine dhéag in ionsaithe a rinne na Rúisigh ar áiteanna éagsúla sa tír. RTÉ News and Current Affairs Nuacht agus Cúrsaí Reatha RTÉ

Dóchas go mbeidh síneadh leis an sos lámhaigh sa Mheánoirthear. There is now strong hope that the ceasefire between the United States and Iran will be extended. Tá dóchas láidir anois ann go gcuirfear síneadh leis an sos lámhaigh idir na Stáit Aontaithe agus an Iaráin. It is said that the new ceasefire will last 60 days and that the Strait of Hormuz will be reopened so that ships can bring goods and oil from Asian countries to Western countries more easily. Deirtear go mbeidh fad 60 lá ag an sos lámhaigh nua agus go n-osclófar Caolas Hormuz in athuair le go mbeidh longa in ann earraí agus ola a thabhairt ó thíortha san Áis chuig tíortha an Iarthair ar bhealach níos scafánta. However, neither US President Donald Trump nor Iranian leaders have given their blessing to any new agreement yet. Níl a bheannacht tugtha áfach ag Uachtarán Mheiriceá Donald Trump ná ag ceannairí na hIaráine d’aon chomhaontú nua go fóill.

    20260530_IRISH__ionsai_ar_ionad_stiurtha_dron_i_ndeisceart_na_hiaraine

    jQuery(document).ready(function(){ cab.clickify(); }); Original Podcast with clickable words https://tinyurl.com/2ba7sqej Contact: irishlingos@gmail.com Attack on a drone control center in southern Iran. Ionsaí ar ionad stiúrtha drón i ndeisceart na hIaráine. A US government spokesman has confirmed that the American air force attacked a drone control center belonging to Iranian military forces in the Strait of Hormuz overnight. Tá sé deimhnithe ag urlabhraí ó Rialtas na Stát Aontaithe gur ionsaigh aerfhórsa Mheiriceá ionad stiúrtha drón le fórsaí míleata na hIaráine i gCaolas Hormuz i gcaitheamh na hoíche. The spokesman said the Americans also shot down four drones when they attacked the base in the port of Bandar Abbas. Dúirt an t-urlabhraí gur chuir na Meiriceánaigh ceithre dhrón go talamh chomh maith nuair a d’ionsaigh siad an bhunáit i gcalafort Bandar Abbas. In retaliation, as they themselves said, Iranian forces attacked a military base belonging to the United States. Ina éiric sin, mar a dúirt siad féin, d’ionsaigh fórsaí na hIaráine bunáit mhíleata leis na Stáit Aontaithe. Although the Iranians did not say which base was attacked, authorities in Kuwait have indicated that several missiles and drones were fired at that country. Cé nach ndúirt na hIaránaigh cén bhunáit go baileach (which base exactly) a ionsaíodh, tá sé tugtha le fios ag na húdaráis i gCuáit gur scaoileadh roinnt diúracán agus drón leis an tír sin. Officially, a ceasefire has been in place in the region since the beginning of April, but it is unclear what direction it is heading – whether it will be consolidated or fall apart – especially since US President Donald Trump has often and simultaneously played both sides of the fence in relation to it. Go hoifigiúil, tá sos comhraic i bhfeidhm sa réigiún ó thús an Aibreáin ach níl sé soiléir cén treo atá faoi – an ndaingneofar é nó an dtitfidh sé as a chéile – go háirithe ó tá an dá phort ag Uachtarán Mheiriceá Donald Trump go minic agus ag an am céanna i ndáil leis. The price of oil has risen again on international markets in light of the latest attacks after falling 5% yesterday. Tá praghas ola ardaithe arís ar na margaí idirnáisiúnta i bhfianaise na n-ionsaithe is deireanaí tar eis dó titim 5 faoin gcéad inné. RTÉ News and Current Affairs Nuacht agus Cúrsaí Reatha RTÉ

    20260522_IRISH__ardu_14%_ar_an_lion_daoine_difhostaithe_o_thus_na_bliana

    jQuery(document).ready(function(){ cab.clickify(); }); Original Podcast with clickable words https://tinyurl.com/yl4lp9em Contact: irishlingos@gmail.com A 14% increase in the number of unemployed people since the beginning of the year. Ardú 14 faoin gcéad ar an líon daoine dífhostaithe ó thús na bliana. The number of people unemployed in the State increased by more than 14% in the first quarter of the year compared to the same quarter last year, according to new figures from the Central Statistics Office. Tháinig ardú de bhreis agus 14 faoin gcéad ar an líon daoine a bhí dífhostaithe sa Stát sa chéad ráithe den bhliain i gcomparáid leis an ráithe chéanna anuraidh, de réir figiúirí nua ón bPríomh-Oifig Staidrimh. 141,800 people were unemployed in the first three months of 2026, an increase of 17,600 from last year, and brings the unemployment rate to 4.9%. 141,800 duine a bhí dífhostaithe sa chéad trí mhí de 2026, sin ardú de 17,600 ó anuraidh, agus fágann sé gur 4.9 faoin gcéad atá sa ráta dífhostaíochta. More than any other sector, the information and communications sector saw the largest drop in employment – 20,300 fewer than last year, a drop of 10.7%. Thar aon earnáil eile, ba san earnáil faisnéise agus cumarsáide bhí an titim ba mhó sa líon fostaithe – 20,300 níos lú ná anuraidh, ar titim de 10.7 faoin gcéad é sin. 80% of those people were programmers and consultants, according to the figures. Ríomhchláraitheoirí agus comhairleoirí ab ea 80 faoin gcéad de na daoine sin, de réir na bhfigiúirí. Conversely, the number of people employed also increased in the first quarter of the year. Os a choinne sin, tháinig ardú chomh maith ar an líon daoine a bhí fostaithe sa chéad ráithe den bhliain. It was a very small increase, 400 people, and it leaves 2,794,500 people employed in the State in the first three months of 2026. Ardú an-bheag a bhí ann, 400 duine, agus fágann sé go raibh 2,794,500 duine fostaithe sa Stát sa chéad trí mhí de 2026. Since it is such a small increase, statisticians do not include it as a percentage. Ós ardú chomh beag sin é, más ea, ní áiríonn lucht staidrimh é go céatadánach.

    20260520_IRISH__gan_aon_sceala_fos_o_ghniomhaithe_ata_togtha_ag_forsai_iosrael

    jQuery(document).ready(function(){ cab.clickify(); }); Original Podcast with clickable words https://tinyurl.com/27mnh3du Contact: irishlingos@gmail.com No news yet from activists captured by Israeli forces. Gan aon scéala fós ó ghníomhaithe atá tógtha ag fórsaí Iosrael. It is understood that no one in this country has received any news from any of the activists from a humanitarian aid flotilla detained by Israeli military forces in the Mediterranean. Tuigtear nach bhfuil scéala faighte ag aon duine sa tír seo ó aon duine de na gníomhaithe ó loingeas cabhrach daonnúla atá faoi choinneáil ag fórsaí míleata Iosrael sa Mheánmhuir. The Israelis intercepted over twenty boats from the aid fleet in the eastern Mediterranean yesterday and have taken the approximately 400 people who were on board those boats. Tháinig na hIosraelaigh roimh os cionn dhá scór bád ón loingeas cabhrach in oirthear na Meánmhara inné agus tá an tuairim is 400 duine a bhí ar bord na mbád sin tógtha acu. It seems that ten more boats are still heading towards Gaza. Is cosúil go bhfuil deich mbád eile ag tabhairt aghaidh ar Gaza i gcónaí. A number of Irish citizens are part of the fleet and Dr. Margaret Connolly, sister of the late President Catherine Connolly, is one of those captured by the Israelis. Tá roinnt saoránach de chuid na hÉireann páirteach sa loingeas agus tá an Dr Margaret Connolly, deirfiúr leis an Uacharán Catherine Connolly, ar dhuine den dream a ghabh na hIosraelaigh. Taoiseach Micheál Martin has condemned the Israelis’ actions in international waters and has called for the immediate release of the hostages. Tá a bhfui déanta ag na hIosraelaigh in uiscí idirnáisiúnta cáinte ag an Taoiseach Micheál Martin agus d’éiligh sé na géibheannaigh a scaoileadh saor láithreach. The vessel closest to Gaza, the Sirius, was 145 nautical miles from its destination, according to the group in Ireland to which the activists are affiliated. An soitheach ba ghaire do Gaza, an Sirius, bhí sí 145 muirmhíle ó cheann scríbe, dar leis an ngrúpa in Éirinn a bhfuil na gníomhaithe bainteach leis. In a statement, Israel’s foreign ministry said that no one would (not) be allowed to breach the naval blockade they are imposing on Gaza, which the Israelis say is a “legal” blockade. I ráiteas, dúirt roinn gnóthaí eachtracha Iosrael nach gceadófaí d’aon dream an léigear mara atá siad a dhéanamh ar Gaza a shárú, ar léigear “dleathach” é, dar leis na hIosraelaigh. The Israeli navy has a habit of taking people they capture to the port of Ashdod in Israel and deporting them from the country shortly thereafter. Tá sé de nós ag cabhlach Iosrael daoine a thógann siad a thabhairt go calafort Aisdeod in Iosrael agus iad a dhíbirt as an tír go gairid ina dhiaidh sin.

    jQuery(document).ready(function(){ cab.clickify(); }); Original Podcast with clickable words https://tinyurl.com/25revzkx Contact: irishlingos@gmail.com Hantavirus: experts optimistic there won’t be another outbreak. Hantaivíreas: saineolaithe dóchasach nach mbeidh ráig eile ann. The World Health Organization has confirmed that nine people have the virus and two others are showing symptoms of the disease. Tá sé dearbhaithe ag an Eagraíocht Dhomhanda Sláinte go bhfuil an hantaivíreas ar naonúr agus go bhfuil siomptóim an ghalair ar bheirt eile. It is understood that all eleven of these cases are related to the cruise ship Hondius which had an outbreak of the disease. Tuigtear go mbaineann gach aon cheann den aon chás déag sin leis an long chrúsála an Hondius a raibh ráig den ghalar uirthi. The head of the World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, said that unfortunately this is not the end of the story and that it is likely that more passengers from that ship will become ill in the coming days. Ceannaire na hEagraíochta Domhanda Sláinte, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, dúirt sé nach é sin deireadh an scéil ar an drochuair agus gurb é is dóichí go n-éireoidh tuilleadh paisinéirí ón long sin tinn sna laethanta amach romhainn. On the contrary, he said, there is currently no likelihood of an outbreak of the disease anywhere else. Os a choinne sin, arsa sé, níl aon chosúlacht ar an scéal faoi láthair go mbeidh ráig den ghalar in aon áit eile. On the other hand, however, he said, another outbreak cannot be ruled out because the anti-virus is a virus that lies dormant for a while before reaching a peak of development. Os a choinne sin arís, áfach, a dúirt sé, ní féidir ráig eile a chur as an áireamh mar gur vireas é an hantaivíreas a tholgann faoi go ceann scaithimh sula dtagann barr forbartha air. The World Health Organization advises people with the disease to quarantine for six weeks and Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said that most of the countries involved are currently adhering to that advice. Comhairlíonn an Eagraíocht Dhomhanda Sláinte do dhaoine a bhfuil an galar orthu coraintín sé seachtaine a dhéanamh agus dúirt Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus go bhfuil bunáite na dtíortha atá i gceist an uair seo ag cloí leis an gcomhairle sin. The head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the United States, Jay Bhattacharya, said, however, that the same advice might not be applied in that country. An té atá i gceannas ar an Lárionad um Ghalair a Chosc agus a Rialú sna Stáit Aontaithe, Jay Bhattacharya, dúirt seisean, ámh, go mb’fhéidir nach gcuirfí an chomhairle chéanna i bhfeidhm sa tír sin. Two Irish women were among the passengers aboard the Hondius. Bhí beirt bhan as Éirinn i measc na bpaisinéirí a bhí ar bord an Hondius. They are now at home and are said to be in good health. Tá siad sa bhaile anois agus deirtear go bhfuil siad i ndea-shláinte. RTÉ News and Current Affairs Nuacht agus Cúrsaí Reatha RTÉ

    20260429_IRISH__athru_aeraide:_an_eoraip_is_treine_ata_ag_teamh

    jQuery(document).ready(function(){ cab.clickify(); }); Original Podcast with clickable words https://tinyurl.com/23m9ybod Contact: irishlingos@gmail.com Climate change: Europe is warming the most. Athrú aeráide: an Eoraip is tréine atá ag téamh. Europe is warming, or being warmed by humans, more than any other continent on the planet, says a new international report on climate change. Is í an Eoraip thar aon ilchríoch eile den chruinne is tréine atá ag téamh, nó á téamh ag an duine, a deirtear i dtuarascáil nua idirnáisiúnta faoi athrú aeráide. Every decade for thirty years, Europe has seen an average temperature increase of 0.56 degrees, a rate that is twice as strong as the rest of the world. Gach deich mbliana le tríocha bliain, bhí meánardú de 0.56 céim ar an teocht san Eoraip, ráta atá dhá oiread níos tréine ná an chuid eile den domhan. This means that the temperature in Europe increased by 1.68 degrees during those years. Fágann sin gur ardú de 1.68 céim a tháinig ar an teocht san Eoraip i gcaitheamh na mblianta sin. However, temperatures are rising even faster in the Arctic region – 0.75 degrees every decade. Is tréine fós atá an teocht ag ardú i réigiún an Artaigh, áfach – 0.75 céim gach deich mbliana. The result of this catastrophic change is warmer air, warmer seas, melting ice, drier land, the destruction of nature and the disappearance of all the shadows on which all beings live. Is é an toradh atá ar an athrú tubaisteach seo aer níos teo, farraigí níos teo, leá oighir, talamh níos tirime, scriosadh dúlra agus dul i léig gach aon cheann de scátha a chéile a maireann gach aon neach orthu. The details are in the annual report published by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts and the World Meteorological Organization. Tá na mionsonraí sa tuarascáil bhliantúil a d’fhoilsigh an Lárionad Eorpach do Réamhaisnéisí Aimsire Meánraoin agus an Eagraíocht Dhomhanda Meitéareolaíochta. In addition to the report’s doomsday predictions, it also highlights the positive side of the situation. Chomh maith le tuar tubaiste na tuarascála, tarraingítear aird ann ar an gcor dearfach. The progress made in Europe regarding renewable energy is said to be a hopeful forecast. Tuar dóchais, a deirtear, is ea an dul chun cinn atá déanta san Eoraip maidir le fuinneamh in- athnuaite. In 2025, 46.4% of Europe’s electricity supply will be generated from renewable sources. In 2025, is ó fhoinsí in-athnuaite a gineadh 46.4 faoin gcéad de sholáthar leictreachais na hEorpa. These sources were mainly wind, water and sun. Gaoth, uisce agus grian is mó a bhí sna foinsí sin. 27.5% of electricity supply was generated from fossil fuels, a significant decrease over thirty years. Ó bhreoslaí iontaise a gineadh 27.5 faoin gcéad den soláthar leictreachais, ar laghdú suntasach é sin le tríocha bliain. RTÉ News and Current Affairs Nuacht agus Cúrsaí Reatha RTÉ
