Firefighters continue to battle a wildfire near Glenshare Pass in Northern Ireland.

Drone footage, captured on June 27, shows billowing smoke rising above the hills in Sperrins.

The filmer writes: ''The hottest day ever recorded here in Northern Ireland and we had our biggest gorse fire in years.

''Multiple fires and smoke plumes extended across the Sperrins which made for a dramatic sight to everyone passing along the famous Glenshane Pass.''

The fire is around one mile in length and consists of five separate blazes, reports say.
