Belfast

A Belfast court has issued an injunction halting a decision that would have allowed the Orange Order to march along the Garvaghy Road in Portadown, a route long at the centre of disputes between the loyal order and nationalist residents. The ruling stops the parade proceeding while legal challenges are considered. The Garvaghy Road has historically been one of Northern Ireland's most contentious parade routes, and the decision is drawing attention from communities and commentators on both sides.
