Battle continued on the streets of Dublin, particularly around the O’Connell Street hotels, after the surrender of the Four Courts. Free State forces bombed the buildings; most IRA evacuated and escaped, leaving behind a small number of men who later surrendered on 5th July. Both sides suffered heavy casualties, and there was a high number of civilian deaths.
