Dublin Fire Brigade Are Tackling A Massive Fire Beside The Airport Right Now

Dublin Fire Brigade are currently tackling an enormous blaze at a recycling plant beside Dublin Airport.

There are eight units at the scene of the St Margaret's/Sandyhill plant in the north of the capital. 

An aerial ladder and foam unit are in attendance and the fire brigade are getting increased water supply from Fingal County Council. 

The huge fire can be seen from all over the city, and the pictures are pretty startling.
