An explosive device that detonated in a car outside the police station in Dunmurry was intended to kill officers, the chairman of the Northern Ireland Policing Board has said.
Brendan Mullan has condemned the incident.
“This explosive device was sent to kill officers and cause maximum harm in an attack which was in the heart of a residential area,” he said.
Meanwhile First Minister Michelle O’Neill said those behind the attack “speak for absolutely no-one”.
“They have no vision, no support, and have nothing to offer our society. Our communities deserve peace. No one is going to deny our young people and future generations that. We will keep progressing and we will keep moving forward to a better future. I have been in contact with local representatives to extend my solidarity and support to all those impacted.”
