Another two men have been arrested by detectives investigating the killing of journalist Lyra McKee, police in Northern Ireland have said.
The men, aged 44 and 53, were arrested in the Derry area on Friday morning under the Terrorism Act.
Ms McKee, 29, was shot dead on 18 April 2019 as she observed rioting in the Creggan area.
She was standing near a police vehicle when she was hit by a bullet fired by a masked gunman toward officers.
The suspects have been taken to the Police Service of Northern Ireland’s Serious Crime Suite at Musgrave police station in Belfast for interviews.
It follows a further two arrests of two men, aged 24 and 29, on 22 September.
Three men have already been charged with the murder of Ms McKee and another four have been charged with rioting and associated offences.
The extremist group that styles itself the New IRA has previously claimed it was responsible for killing the Belfast journalist and author.
