An anti-migrant protest on O'Connell Street has led to traffic being blocked while Dublin Bus is re-routed.

A number of buses have been blocked due to protesters gathering on the street.

Protesters have signs relating to Monday's knife attack in Belfast, while others are carrying tricolours. Others have claimed the protest is against the EU Migration Pact, but there appears to be little organisation to it.

There is a large Garda presence near the Spire and the GPO where the protestes first congregated.

Luas Green Line Services are operating with delays due to the Dublin city centre protest.
