  "headline": "New IRA Believed Responsible for Car Bomb Attack Outside Belfast Police Station with Two Babies Evacuated",
  "description": "On the night of April 26, 2026, at approximately 10:50 PM local time, a car bomb detonated outside a police station in Dunmurry, southwest of Belfast, Northern Ireland. The device, described as a 'gas cylinder-type device', was placed in a hijacked delivery driver's car and driven to the location. Emergency services evacuated nearby residents including two babies before the explosion, which scattered debris across the street. Police believe the New IRA, a dissident republican paramilitary group opposed to British presence in Northern Ireland and the 1998 peace agreement, is behind this attack. This incident follows a recent failed bombing attempt outside a police station in Lurgan for which the New IRA claimed responsibility. The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) has launched an attempted murder investigation. Senior officials including Deputy Chief Constable Bobby Singleton condemned the attack highlighting ongoing paramilitary murderous intent and capability. Political leaders from Sinn Fein and the Democratic Unionist Party also denounced the attack, emphasizing the need for peace and rule of law.",

  "summary_extended": "At around 10:50 PM local time on April 26, 2026, a car bomb exploded outside a police station in Dunmurry, southwest Belfast. The explosive was a gas cylinder-type device placed in a delivery driver's hijacked vehicle. Police and fire crews responded promptly, evacuating residents including two babies prior to detonation, and extinguishing the fire afterwards. The Police Service of Northern Ireland's terrorism unit is investigating the incident as attempted murder. Deputy Chief Constable Bobby Singleton identified the New IRA as the likely perpetrators, citing similarities to a recent failed bombing attempt in Lurgan which was claimed by the group. The New IRA, a dissident republican paramilitary organization opposing the 1998 peace deal and British presence in Northern Ireland, has a history of violent attacks including the 2019 murder of journalist Lyra McKee. Political leaders across Northern Ireland condemned the attack; Sinn Fein's First Minister Michelle O'Neill and Democratic Unionist Party leader Gavin Robinson called for peace and law enforcement response. The incident underscores the persistent threat and capability of paramilitary groups in the region.",
