Belfast Scrap Yard Fire Finally Out | Belfast News
Description
A massive two-night fire at Belfast’s Clearway Disposals scrap yard—home to 4,500 tons of scrapped cars—was finally extinguished after 50+ firefighters battled flames visible across the city. Investigators suspect a lithium battery sparked the blaze, which marks the third major fire at this site since 2021. Authorities are now calling for a full probe by the Northern Ireland Environment Agency, while emergency crews—including harbor tugs and Sky Watch NI—worked tirelessly to contain the inferno. The fire was officially declared out just after midnight Friday.
