Firefighters use water bombs on island blaze

A major wildfire has broken out on the Isle of Rum on the Inner Hebrides.

Fire crews used helicopters to water bomb the hillside as they tried to bring it under control.

The blaze started on Wednesday evening and quickly spread across 50 acres of the Black Cuillin of Rum.

Firefighters from Mallaig and Acharacle visited the island and said there was no risk to property or those living on the island.
