Bullets used to kill British soldiers 'similar to those used in IRA attacks'

Bullets fired in a terrorist gun attack that killed two British soldiers were of a make and date similar to those used in Provisional IRA shootings, a court has heard today.

One of the two guns used in the ambush in which English sappers Mark Quinsey, 23, and Patrick Azimkar, 21, were murdered was also used in two previous gun attacks on police stations in the North, a firearms expert told Antrim Crown Court.
