ACC Ryan Henderson said: "It is in all of our interests and in the interests of justice that those responsible are dealt with."

"In releasing these images, I am asking the wider community to step forward and help us to identify these people," ACC Henderson told a press conference on Friday.

ACC Henderson said earlier in the week police had "no intelligence" about the coordination from loyalist paramilitary groups in the disorder, but now he is "absolutely sure" that "we have seen people associated with those groupings at protests and particularly at disorder and in the vicinity of it".

ACC Henderson said: "police came under significant and sustained attack from rioters. It was clear that those involved were intent on destroying homes and businesses within the town and on attacking police."

The home of a family with three children was set on fire in Coleraine on Thursday night, in what ACC Henderson called: "An awful, hate-motivated attack".
