Campaigners awarded peace prize
Campaigners who helped secure a global ban on cluster bombs have been awarded the Tipperary International Peace Prize.
Almost 100 countries signed a treaty outlawing the manufacture or use of the munitions last month.
It follows successful negotiations between delegations in Dublin in May.
The Cluster Munition Coalition is a global network which aims to end the harm caused by the weapons in 70 countries.
Previous recipients of the award include former world leaders Nelson Mandela, Mikhail Gorbachev, and Bill Clinton as well as assassinated Pakistani premier Benazir Bhutto.
