Shankill bombing: Wreaths laid to remember victims

Nine Protestant civilians were killed in the IRA bomb attack

Wreaths have been laid at the site of a bombing in Belfast which killed nine protestant civilians and an IRA bomber 25 years ago.

The attack took place in Frizzell's fish shop on the Shankill Road on 23 October 1993.

On Saturday, a parade of football teams, including that of one victim, made its way from Highfield to the scene of the bombing.

The event is one of many taking place ahead of Tuesday's anniversary.
