Police issue firebomb warning
Flats where devices were found
Devices were found at flats in a nationalist estate
Police have issued a warning to shopowners across Northern Ireland about possible incendiary devices.

They said members of the business community should be on the alert for potential firebombs being left in their premises.

A PSNI spokesman said shopkeepers in counties Londonderry, Fermanagh, Antrim and Tyrone should be particularly vigilant.

The appeal, made on Saturday, follows the discovery of a bomb-making operation in Strabane, County Tyrone on Wednesday.

Detectives said they found six live incendiary devices at a flat at Lisnafin Park.

A 37-year-old man faces three charges connected to the discovery of the firebombs.
