Victims of the Omagh bombing, the single deadliest atrocity of the Northern Ireland Troubles, are to take centre stage at the public inquiry which reopens on Tuesday.
The car bomb attack that ripped through the town on 15 August 1998, killing 29 people and unborn twins, was carried out by the Real IRA less than three months after voters on both sides of the border had said yes in a referendum on the Good Friday peace deal. The dead included children and victims from both sides of the Irish border, and from England and Spain.
