On January 29, 1923, an anti-Treaty IRA campaign targeting political opponents commenced in Ireland. This campaign involved the systematic destruction of properties belonging to senators who supported the Anglo-Irish Treaty. Notable incidents included the burning down of the homes of the Earl of Mayo and Sir Horace Plunkett. This escalation of violence marked a significant phase in the Irish Civil War, highlighting the deep divisions and bitter conflict that followed the establishment of the Irish Free State. The actions aimed to undermine the authority of the new government and its supporters.
