Gardaí are investigating the cause of a blaze in Co Donegal, part of which is used to house asylum-seekers.
The blaze happened overnight at the rear of a licensed premises on the main Street in Buncrana.
The fire broke out at around 1am and emergency services rushed to the scene.
All occupants of the building were safely evacuated.

They say the results of their investigation will determine the course of any other investigations.
