From Times Wire Reports

The Ulster Freedom Fighters, Northern Ireland’s largest pro-British paramilitary group, backed off its threat to end its self-imposed cease-fire, saying it was committed to protecting Protestant homes but would find a peaceful way to do so. The group had threatened to shoot anyone found attacking Protestants in Belfast. Despite the threat, the group hasn’t been linked to any violence. The reversal came after appeals from its own political wing, the Ulster Democratic Party.
