Mr Durkan said: “If these are viable devices, they are intended to damage or threaten.

“If they are not, then they are intended to disrupt and put people off their everyday business.

“Either way, we have streets cordoned off in two parts of the Waterside – with residents disrupted and many homes evacuated as a result.”
