A garda operation is underway in North Cork as part of an investigation into ongoing feuds
Up to 60 gardai backed up by armed personnel as well as the air support unit have raided a number of houses in the Charleville area and seized guns and other weapons
The feuds have seen houses petrol bombed and a 12-year-old girl sustained a fractured skull during an attack on her home in Charleville last month
Today's garda operation is expected to continue for a number of hours
