Components and material for a huge bomb have been found in Northern Ireland, police revealed today. The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) said a major dissident republican bomb plot had been foiled after a lorry packed with material which could be used to build a 1,000lb – about 500kg – explosive device was found under a flyover in South Armagh. It was discovered on the A1 Newry road at Cloghogue, part of the upgraded carriageway between Dublin and Belfast. The vehicle had been there for several days.
