March passes off peacefully in north Belfast

A controversial Orange Order march in the Ardoyne area of north Belfast has passed off peacefully this morning.

No music was played as more than 100 Orangemen and bandsmen paraded along the Ardoyne Road as part of their annual Twelfth of July celebrations.

Around 60 nationalist residents mounted a silent protest while the well-marshalled parade passed by.

The PSNI kept a low-key presence in case of any trouble, but the event passed off without incident.
