Northern Ireland court allows Protestant march in Catholic area

Original: Northern Ireland court allows Protestant march in Catholic area, Sky News reports

A court in Northern Ireland has ruled that a Protestant parade can go ahead through a predominantly Catholic area, according to Sky News. The decision is drawing attention because such marches have long been a source of tension between the region's Protestant unionist and Catholic nationalist communities, and rulings on parade routes often spark protests and public debate.

Why now: Parades through divided neighbourhoods are a recurring flashpoint in Northern Ireland, so a court backing this route is contentious.
