US President Joe Biden on Tuesday left Washington for Northern Ireland on a visit to mark the 25th anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement. The agreement, also known as the 1998 Belfast Agreement, ended the civil war between pro-union Protestants and Catholics supporting reunification with the Republic of Ireland.

Biden plans to travel Wednesday evening to the Irish capital, Dublin, where he will address the Irish Parliament. A photo showed four youths in Craigan - predominantly Irish nationalists - throwing Molotov cocktails at a police car that was covered in flames.
