First Consignment: 01 – Airlift

In the summer of 1972, Libya’s Colonel Gaddafi made an approach to the Provisional IRA with an offer of weapons. This was to become the first modern weaponry the IRA got access to. The first shipment of arms landed in Ireland in late 1972, a shipment that few, even to this day, are aware of. More than fifty years after all of this took place we finally tell a story that has never been told before. In this first part of a two part documentary, we follow these weapons from their point of manufacture in Russia, through to their arrival on Irish soil. (Part 1 of 2) Narrated by Liam O’Brien and Conor Keane. Produced by Liam O’Brien. (2024)
