Twelfth 2025: Here are 35 images from 11th night bonfires in towns and cities across Northern Ireland

Last night effigies of migrants, the Irish rap group Kneecap, Irish flags and sectarian slogans topped loyalist bonfires in Northern Ireland.

The NIFRS said they dealt with a challenging night as bonfires were lit ahead of the July 12 celebrations.

Bonfires were burned at an estimated 300 locations in loyalist neighbourhoods on Thursday and Friday nights.
