Politicians condemn arson attack on Armagh Orange hall

Unionist and nationalist politicians in the North are condemning a petrol bomb attack on a Protestant Orange hall.

After a relatively calm July 12th march, arsonists attacked the Kilmore Orange Hall last night near Lurgan in Co Armagh.

Police and fire crews were called to the scene just after 11pm.

The attack comes almost one week after Orangemen in nearby Portadown were barred for the ninth year running from marching down the nationalist Garvaghy Road.
