Two weeks to the day since the riots that took over Dublin’s city centre on November 23rd, RTÉ’s Prime Time has released a special online edition, documenting in video a detailed timeline of that day, and shedding more light on how these riots developed across the afternoon.
With hours of CCTV and video footage, shared by those who were on the scene, analysed; this timeline shows how key events happened from 13:46, moments after the attack on Dublin’s Parnell Square, and ends at 21:38 bringing the viewer inside some of the premises under attack. Back outside viewers can witness the rioters take over O’Connell Bridge.
The video compiled and timecoded by RTÉ Prime Time also shows that looting and criminal damage happened in areas where Garda public order units had passed through.
Using bespoke online search systems to analyse social media activity, RTÉ Prime Time also compiled a picture of how sentiment developed online in relation to the attack.
The worst riots that Dublin has seen in decades, Dublin City Council estimates that between 17:45 and 22:45, almost €20m worth of damage was done in the area.
