Fear and fallout three months on from Northern Ireland's race riots

An article from BBC News reports on the aftermath of racial tensions and riots in Northern Ireland that erupted three months prior. The unrest began after a video of a knife attack, shared by far-right activists and prominent figures like Elon Musk, sparked anti-immigration protests which turned violent, primarily targeting refugee and asylum seeker homes. The violence led to displacement, with over 76 households reported homeless by local authorities, though community workers estimate the number is significantly higher. Meanwhile, grassroots efforts emerged as migrant support organizations coordinated via WhatsApp to rescue over 200 individuals during the crisis, highlighting both the challenges and resilience within affected communities.
