The ongoing fuel protests and their impacts dominate Irish front pages on Friday morning.

The Irish Times lead with the war in the Middle East, the Government potentially engaging with fuel protesters, and a charity for the blind sending a businessman on a cruise.

The Irish Examiner lead with emergency services vehicles being low on fuel thanks to the fuel protests, Tipperary assault victim Scarlett Faulkner's life support being turned off, and Netanyahu seeking talks with Beirut as the death toll rises.

The Echo, The Herald, Irish Independent, Irish Daily Mail, Irish Daily Mirror and Irish Daily Star all lead with the fuel protests and the impacts they are having around the country.

 

Belfast Telegraph lead with Northern Ireland's Economy Minister U-turning on a decision not to attend an economic forum hosted by China after lobbying from the country's consulate in Belfast.
