Children will have surgery today

RTE is reporting this morning that the two children who were badly burned in a petrol bomb attack on Sunday in Pineview Gardens will undergo surgery today.


From RTENews:

Gardaí are investigating the cause of the fire. One line of inquiry is that the fire was started deliberately.

Niall McNamara, the father of the children, has said that someone had poured petrol into the back of the car and set it alight.

The operations will get underway at Our Lady's Hospital for Sick Children in Crumlin.
