JUDY WOODRUFF, CNN ANCHOR: Two separate bombings in Northern Ireland are sparking fears of a new round of violence. One bomb exploded in a Protestant section of Belfast and the other destroyed a van in nearby Bangor. Neil Connery reports.</s>NEIL CONNERY, ITN REPORTER (voice-over): Three men were inside the transit van when the bomb exploded. They were driving along Bangor's High Street, when the device went off beneath the driver's seat. The driver, who was head of security at a local nightclub, was badly injured. It's believed he'd been threatened by drug dealers linked to the loyalist volunteer force. An army technical team moved in to check the van, using a robot, before the area was declared safe. It's not clear if the attack is linked to the loyalist feud. But last night's explosion on Belfast's Shankhill Road was. No one was injured, but the bomb destroyed the offices of a loyalist prisoner's group. The organization helps former prisoners linked to the Ulster Freedom Fighters. That paramilitary group has been feuding with the Ulster volunteer force, who are thought to be responsible.</s>RONNIE FLANAGAN, CHIEF CONSTABLE: The truth is, this is a societal problem, this is a community ripping itself apart, and we can only do so much, we can only provide protection, but society has to grip this problem.</s>CONNERY: More proof of that came when police put on display mortars and parts of pipe bombs they found in the offices bombed last night. Both sides in this feud Remain determined as ever. In the past month, three people have been murdered, nearly 200 families forced from their homes. The violence of the past 24 hours makes further retaliation almost inevitable. Neil Connery, ITN, Belfast.
