Crews tackle gorse fire on Belfast's Cave Hill

Firefighters are tackling a gorse fire on Cave Hill in north Belfast.

The Northern Ireland Fire and Rescue Service said two fire engines were dealing with the blaze and the incident was ongoing.

Officials said there was no risk to life or property, but people are being asked to avoid the area and nearby residents should keep their doors and windows closed.

Crews will remain in the area overnight to monitor and assess the situation.

Last month, firefighters battled several gorse fires across Northern Ireland, including ones on the Mourne Mountains and Cave Hill.
