    Soldiers in County Antrim have come under fire during a gun attack at an Army base.

    Unconfirmed reports said one person was feared dead and five others wounded, but it is not clear if they were civilians or military personnel.

    Shots were fired at the Massereene Army base in Antrim, 16 miles north of Belfast, at 2140 GMT.

    A spokesperson for the Ministry of Defence described the shooting as a "drive-by" attack.

    Urgh. Was listening to an interview with Hugh Orde yesterday where he said they were expecting a surge in activity from dissident republicans. I hope we're just seeing the actions of a lone nutter and not a return to the bad ole days :(

    In the last few days there has been words mentioned in the media elsewhere that dissident republicans were still out there and still a danger.


    Far as I'm concerned they, the dissident's can sod off!
    99.9% of this country - the whole country has moved on and ONLY wants peace.
    Sod off you utter murdering scum.

    I apologise to the forum for the strong sentiment - it's something I feel strongly about.

    It's amazing how relatively quickly I'd grown accustomed to not seeing breaking news stories represented by your thread title OP. Hopefully it's not a sign of things to come, I don't ever want to become desensitized by stories such as this again.

    Does anyone here remember how the news stories a few years back had devolved into formula.

    [A man or X amount of Men] were [killed wounded or a combination] in [location in the North] [Loyalist/Republican group or nobody] has claimed responsibility.
