Police revealed on Wednesday that 38 people have now been charged to court in relation to disorder and in some cases, racist hate crimes, that occurred in Belfast last month.

Overall so far, there have also been 48 arrests.

On Wednesday afternoon, the PSNI announced that a 19-year-old man has now been charged with two counts of riot, arson, criminal damage and two counts of possession of an offensive weapon with intent to commit an indictable offence.

He is due before Belfast Magistrates Court on October 18.

A 17-year-old boy was charged with riot, two counts of arson and criminal damage and is due before Belfast Youth Court on October 14.

A 16-year-old boy was charged with riot and is due to appear before Belfast Youth Court on October 21.

As is usual procedure all charges will be reviewed by the PPS.

At the beginning of August, police dealt with nearly a week filled with riots, protests and attacks throughout the city.

Windows of houses were broken, cars and various objects were set on fire, and police officers were attacked with bricks and masonry by many masked assailants.

Disorder began on Saturday, August 3, after an anti-immigration protest involving 600 people formed in the City Hall area, and then dispersed into sporadic violence in parts of south Belfast, with further disorder reported in the Sandy Row area later that night.

Police said they also prevented attempts to march to the Belfast Islamic Centre.

Multiple UK towns and cities saw clashes between anti-immigration demonstrators and counter-protesters in the same week, after three girls were killed in a knife attack.

The victims were Bebe King, six, Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, and Alice Dasilva Aguiar, nine.

Axel Muganwa Rudakubana, 17, from Lancashire, is accused of the attack, but false claims spread online that the suspect was an asylum seeker who had arrived in the UK by boat.

The First and deputy First Ministers, alongside political representatives across Northern Ireland, have continued to condemn the attacks.

Earlier this month, the PSNI said it spent over £3.5m last month dealing with the race hate disorder across Northern Ireland, as police recorded more than 400 race hate crimes this year compared to last year.
