A number of police officers have been injured and several people have been arrested during fresh violence at a union flag protest in east Belfast.

A PSNI spokesman said officers have come under "sustained attack from crowds of up to 300 people using fireworks, bricks and petrol bombs".

The trouble broke out in Castlereagh Street and Templemore Avenue, close to where 10 officers were injured in rioting on Thursday night.

Motorists are asked to avoid the area.

A campaign of street demonstrations has been ongoing since Belfast City Council took a vote on 3 December which limited the number of days the union flag is flown at Belfast City Hall.

Some of the protests have resulted in violence.

To date, almost 40 police officers have been hurt, several politicians have received death threats and homes and property have been damaged.
