The infamous Omagh bombing had only happened 14 days prior to this news report. It features relatives of some of who had been killed, meeting in the town centre for a demonstration urging politicians for a genuine agreement for peace. 

Michael Gallagher, who lost his son in the incident, speaks of how "many party leaders came to my house and told me how sorry they were" however, he puts forward, that "if you really are as sorry as you say, do something about this". 

The organiser of the rally - Geraldine Keys - speaks of how, despite the poor turnout, they are not disheartened and have received support from others who were unable to make the event.

The Omagh bombing was a car bombing on 15 August 1998 in the town of Omagh, County Tyrone, Northern Ireland. 

It was carried out by a group calling themselves the Real Irish Republican Army, a Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA) splinter group who opposed the IRA's ceasefire and the Good Friday Agreement. The bombing killed 29 people and injured some 220 others - making it the deadliest single incident of the Troubles in Northern Ireland.

Telephoned warnings had been sent almost 40 minutes beforehand but were inaccurate, and police had inadvertently moved people toward the bomb.
