Creeslough garda probe "one of the biggest ever" as detectives interview people abroad

Detectives investigating the cause of the Creeslough explosion which claimed ten lives have travelled as far as Spain and England to interview people in relation to the blast.

The tiny County Donegal village is trying its best to find some form or normality as it prepares for the festive season.

The village's main N56 road outside the Applegreen Service Station at the centre of the investigation only recently reopened on November 17 after the horrific blast on the afternoon of Friday, October 7.

Local businesses have reopened and a new shop comprised of prefabs has also opened next door to St Michael's Church which replaces the service station which housed the only other other shop in the village.

But behind the scenes one of the most intense Garda investigations is taking place to find answers as to what caused the blast.
