Traveller rights groups have said they "stand in solidarity with the innocent victims" of the escalating family feud, which has seen numerous violent scenes on the streets of Cork in recent days. 

The Cork Traveller Visibility Group (TVG) and the Cork Traveller Women’s Network (CTWN) spoke out on Wednesday after the second major incident of violent disorder in the city since Monday linked to the feuding parties.
