Nuova pipe bomb. Colpita abitazione a Coalisland
Pipe bomb attack at house in town
A pipe bomb has exploded behind a house in Coalisland in County Tyrone.
A man and a woman were in their home on Chestnut Hill in Brackaville when the device went off at about 2330 BST on Thursday.
Neither person was injured, but a number of windows were damaged. It was the fifth pipe bomb attack in the west of Northern Ireland this week.
On Wednesday night a pipe bomb exploded outside a house in Limavady, County Londonderry.
Another device went off outside a house in Londonderry’s Creggan area on Tuesday, while police blamed a “criminal gang” for two explosions early on Monday.
Responsibility for those attacks was claimed by a group calling itself Republican Action Against Drugs.
