Court Permits Orange Order Parade Through Catholic Neighborhood for First Time in Decades

A court in Northern Ireland has granted permission for an Orange Order march to travel along a contentious route through a Catholic neighbourhood for the first time in almost three decades. The legal proceedings concluded early Sunday, as counter‑demonstrations emerged and police worked to separate the participants. The Drumcree dispute, originating in the mid‑1990s, involved riots, roadblocks and killings that jeopardised the region’s peace process. Reporting from Portadown, Hervé Amoric.
