A court in Northern Ireland has ruled that a Protestant parade can proceed through a predominantly Catholic area, according to Sky News. Such marches have long been a source of tension in the region, with parades through contested neighbourhoods often prompting objections from residents and prompting a heavy police presence. The decision is likely to draw reaction from both unionist and nationalist communities.
