Continued clashes in Northern Ireland

2012-09-05 26

Police in Northern Ireland have battled protestors for a third night running.

Protestants say a parade held by local area Catholics is a provcation, especially because, they say many of their own planned parades have been cancelled or diverted.

The tension comes in a still deeply divided area of Belfast, where Catholic nationalists and Protestant unionists live in close proximity to one another.

Al Jazeera's Simon McGregor Wood reports from North Belfast.
