A number of premises earmarked as asylum seeker accommodation have been targeted recently.
Caution is being urged after social media posts have made threats to "light up" a midlands barracks providing asylum-seeker accommodation.
Columb Barracks has become the target of recent online threats, following a spate of arson attacks against premises across the country.
Justice Minister Helen McEntee has said the attacks are nothing short of "absolutely deplorable," after a number of buildings earmarked as accommodation for refugees or asylum seekers were targeted.
Green Party Councillor, Hazel Smyth, says she's concerned we could see a similar incident in the former barracks:
