It follows the hijacking and burning of a bus earlier in the week.

The SDLP has condemned violence in west Belfast last night.

Police say disorder, involving both sides of the community, broke out in the Lanark Way area.

A rally against the post-Brexit Northern Ireland protocol turned violent as police were targeted with fireworks.

Items were burnt on the roads and missiles were thrown at officers and their vehicles.

It's after an attack saw a bus hijacked and set alight earlier in the week - also thought to be linked to Brexit negotiations.
