A golf course owned by US President Donald Trump in the Republic of Ireland has been damaged by vandals.<\/p>\n

Garda\u00ed (Irish police) are investigating after what is described as “criminal damage” was caused to the Trump International Golf Links Ireland in Doonbeg, County Clare.<\/p>\n

BBC News NI understands that the damage was confined to the course, and it included graffiti linked to the Israel-Gaza conflict in the Middle East.<\/p>\n

The graffiti is believed to have been in support of Palestine and critical of the US president.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Garda\u00ed are appealing for witnesses, and in particular those who were in the area from around teatime on Wednesday until midnight.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
