Officers were pelted with fireworks and bricks in the Carlisle Circus area, in the north of the city.

Riots around the same location over recent nights have left more than 60 officers injured.

This morning, three men – aged 18, 19, and 20 – are expected to be brought before Belfast Magistrate’s Court, charged with riotous assembly.

While two of the men face further charges connected with assaulting police.
