Two machine guns and a quantity of ammunition have been seized in Dublin's north inner city.

They were discovered after gardaí searched a premise yesterday.

A 48-year-old man has been arrested and taken to Mountjoy Garda Station for questioning.

Assistant Commissioner John O'Driscoll says gardaí have an unrelenting determination to take lethal firearms off the streets of Ireland in its ongoing efforts to keep people safe.
