Cork Shows Solidarity With Orlando Victims
The national flag will fly at half mast today in memory of the victims of the Orlando nightclub shooting.
A Book of Condolence will also be opened this morning in City Hall.
So far 49 people have died, but it is feared this number may increase, as many of those injured are described as critical.
Corks LGBT community are organising a vigil in Daunt's Square on Wednesday at 6.30pm to show solidarity with those who lost their lives in the attack.
The Book of Condolences will be available for signing for the next two weeks.
