correspondent Phil Mackie reports from Ballymena, Northern Ireland following the country’s third night of disorder, which officials have described as racially-motivated.
Local residents said they had “barely slept” as a result of the disorder, while another local said the violence had been “simmering for a very long time”.
On Wednesday night in Larne, masked youths attacked a leisure centre and set it on fire.
The council said the council had been providing emergency shelter for families following the clashes earlier this week.
