“Weekly ‘firebomb’ drone drops into Dublin prison yard 'stopped overnight' thanks to new state-of-the-art wire mesh.”
“The Irish Mirror has learned that the Irish Prison Service constructed the new wire mesh over the D Yard of Mountjoy Prison after cunning criminals managed to set fire to packages that were dropped from drones and repeatedly burned through the old net on a weekly basis.
The construction of the new material, which sources say is far more impenetrable, is believed to have stopped a major crime gang’s ability to drop drugs and mobile phones into the yard overnight.

Sources say the drone problem had become so bad that a Dublin based gang was managing to have packages dropped into the yard on a weekly basis – meaning potentially thousands of euro worth of illicit items were making their way into the prison.
Sources say the new netting has stopped the gang in their tracks overnight – and joint cooperation with Gardaí – who carried out raids this week, has left the gang reeling.“
