Close to 100 members of the Galway Masjid Maryam mosque were left terrified after rocks were thrown through the windows, during prayer on Monday evening.Imam Ibrahim Ahmad Noonan says the building was vandalized, during Ramadan, as revenge for the London Islamic State attack on Saturday.
The attack on the Galway mosque took place at 11.20pm, as the community gathered for evening prayers breaking their daily fast during the holy period of Ramadan, when the mosque would be particularly busy. No one was injured.
The Galway mosque attack Imam Noonan said “Last night, during the time of prayer and actually as we prayed, rocks smashed through the windows. He told the Irish Times “I was leading the prayers when we heard an extremely loud bang and obviously we were in the middle of the prayers so continued on but there were one or two people who left the prayers to see what the bang was.”
