Ireland's Prime Minister Leo Varadkar drew a quick wave of global condemnation after posting to X/Twitter stating that he was relieved to learn that Irish-Israeli girl Emily Hand had been "found" after being "lost."

X users were quick to point out that Hand had been taken captive by Hamas terrorists and not passively "lost." Irish X users clarified that the PM had likely been using a metaphor from the New Testament (Luke 15:24) and did not mean to cause offence or downplay the actions of Hamas.
