"A number of residents, including two babies, were being taken to safety by officers when the device exploded, engulfing the vehicle in flames and sending debris in all directions."
"What this type of device may have lacked in terms of its sophistication and scale, it more than made up for in its reckless unpredictability."
A car exploded outside Dunmurry police station in Belfast, believed to be linked to the New IRA and treated as attempted murder. The vehicle was hijacked and a gas cylinder device was placed inside. Residents, including babies, were evacuated, and no injuries occurred. Police acted swiftly to protect the community. The incident mirrors a previous attack where a delivery driver was forced to transport a device that failed to detonate. Officials emphasize the ongoing threat from paramilitary groups in the region.
