Belfast and wider Ulster are experiencing severe violent unrest, with fires and destruction reported across the region. The situation appears to be escalating, though specific triggers or groups involved have not yet been confirmed. The unrest adds to the political pressure on UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who is already facing leadership challenges.
