Continuity IRA claim Armagh rocket attack on police

Republican terrorist group Continuity IRA have claimed responsibility for a rocket attack on police in North Armagh in the early hours of Saturday morning.

In a briefing given to the Guardian using a recognised code word, a spokesman for the Continuity Army Council of the IRA said their operatives had fired a rocket propelled grenade at a police patrol on Lake Road, between roundabouts one and two of Craigavon, shortly after midnight.
