The unrest started in Belfast on Saturday following an anti-immigration demonstration and violent protests have continued for several days.
The Stormont Executive and Assembly have been recalled following rioting in Belfast which police say involves 'a paramilitary element'. Members of the Legislative Assembly will meet later to discuss a motion condemning 'criminal damage and targeting of businesses in recent days'. The Police Service of Northern Ireland came under sustained attack from petrol bombs, masonry and bricks in the city on Monday night.
Assistant Chief Constable Melanie Jones said: 'I have no doubt there is a paramilitary element to this, but I am not in a position to say that this is the main organiser or orchestrator of these events.' Political leaders have been calling for calm. Northern Ireland Secretary Hilary Benn said: 'The violence which has sowed fear in local communities and damaged businesses is totally unacceptable.
