Rt Hon Theresa Villiers said:

To place explosives on a residential street with the intention to kill and maim is a sickening act. There is no possible justification to imperil life in this way. Those responsible are reckless and criminal and they will be condemned by everyone who wants a positive future for Northern Ireland.
