Pipe Bombs Found Before Biden Visit
Ahead of US President Joe Biden’s visit to Northern Ireland, police found four pipe bombs in a cemetery in Creggan, near the city of Londonderry.
While the security level has been raised in Northern Ireland due to the visit of US President Joe Biden, tensions are high due to the 25th anniversary of the Belfast Agreement. Northern Ireland police said four pipe bombs were found in a cemetery in Creggan, near the city of Londonderry.
“The discovery of these devices was an even more ominous and alarming development. Colleagues from the Terrorism Investigation Unit will now lead this investigation,” Northern Ireland Deputy Police Chief Bobby Singleton said in a statement.
On the other hand, a protest was organized by nationalists against the Belfast Agreement in Creggan yesterday, while a masked group attacked the police vehicle with Molotov cocktails.
