Three people have died as a result of an explosion in Creeslough in County Donegal, gardainfo says:
Bishop of Raphoe, Alan McGuckian, told BBC News NI everyone in the county was "shocked and shaken beyond words".
"A lot of people are very seriously injured - we haven't heard numbers yet," he told BBC Radio Ulster's Evening Extra programme on Friday afternoon."There are three helicopters at the scene - we have the mountain rescue helicopter, we have the RNLI and we also have the army helicopter. The Shandon Hotel in Dunfanaghy said some of its team members have been "directly affected" by the incident.
"This happened at a time when the area would have been busy with the school run, people going in and out of the delicatessen and the hair salon on this site as well as the petrol station.""The community are rallying around obviously, helping to clear the rubble bit by bit, but the site itself is dangerous," he said.
