—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇪 NEW: An Irish man broke into Shannon Airport, getting on top of an American C-130 cargo plane and smashing it with a hammer

Edit THERE IS VIDEO!

Video in https://t.me/DDGeopolitics/181680

The man was arrested by Gardaí and the Armed Support Unit.

Shannon has been used as a key US military transit hub throughout the Iran war, despite the Irish government's insistence it is not being used for war operations.

Edit 2

The guy was able to take the aircraft out of service by damaging the fuselage!

Ireland just continuously manages to produce some of the most based people in Western Europe I swear.

Hope we get more based people in the rest of Europe and possibly the USA. This type of sabotage can save countless lives in West Asia.
