RTÉFirefighters in Dublin brought another fire under control at a site in Coolock that was being renovated to accommodate asylum seekers.
Saturday was the third night in a row that the former Crown Paints factory on the Malahide Road in the city was on fire.
On Saturday, Dublin Fire Brigade was called to the site.
Two units tackled the blaze and An Garda SÃochána (Irish police) also attended.
The north side of the Malahide Road was closed off.
There have been a series of protests and also incidents of disorder at the site in recent days.
On Friday, riot police were deployed and An Garda SÃochána said officers were “subjected to both verbal and physical abuse including rocks, concrete bricks and other objects being thrown at them”.
As this intensified, gardaà said they were “required to use force to defend themselves while continuing to adopt a graduated approach to policing, with enforcement as a last resort.”
Three officers were injured and one was taken to hospital for treatment for facial injuries – all three are recovering and receiving welfare support.
