Who was murdered by the cursed terrorists."Her death has been described as "senseless and barbaric" by the Irish Premier Leo Varadkar. "As a nation we are united in mourning for Kim Damti.
" Tanaiste Micheal Martin said he had spoken with her family."It is with immense sadness that I learnt this evening that Kim Damti's death has been confirmed," he said.

The news that this hope has now been extinguished is devastating.
