Young people in Derry have been urged not to burn Union and other loyalist flags at an annual bonfire later this month.
The pyre, which is being built in the Creggan estate, is expected to be torched on August 15 to mark the Catholic Feast of the Assumption.
It is understood that young people from several parts of Derry have been involved in helping to build the bonfire in the staunchly republican area.
Some of those involved in building the pyre have posted pictures of loyalist flags and other emblems, including poppy wreaths and TUV elections posters online in recent weeks.
One loyalist flag put on display makes a reference to a Co Derry town along with the message "thanks Coleraine for the flags", while another shows poppy wreaths and a Union flags along with the words "thanks for the poppies and the flags Limavady tonight".
It is understood these will be placed on the bonfire and burnt on Augusts 15.

Residents voice concern over Derry bonfire
The development comes just weeks after it emerged that a controversial bonfire in the Bogside area of Derry has been called off.
The Meenan Square pyre, which in the past attracted large crowds, previously came in for criticism after flags, wreaths and other images were placed on it.
The Republican Socialist Youth Movement (RYSM) said on social media that the event will no longer be held after bonfire builders consulted local residents.
Graffiti later appeared near the bonfire site stating the RYSM had "nothing to do with Bog bonfire."
Concerns have also been raised by residents over a planned August 15 pyre in the Galliagh area of Derry.
In 2012 the removal of material at a bonfire site in the district sparked three nights of rioting.
There was widespread criticism last month over the burning of flags and effigies on Eleventh Night bonfires.
In recent years huge efforts have been made to reduce anti-internment and August 15 pyres in nationalist across the north.
SDLP assembly member Mark H Durkan said it is "disappointing that this is happening, great efforts have been made right across the city in communities to eradicate bonfires".
"However, it's not unsurprising in respect to displays of hate that were paraded all over the media and reported on for the July bonfires that some young people in nationalist areas will respond accordingly," he added.
The MLA urged those behind the bonfire not to burn flags or emblems.
"I think it's important that we engage with these young people and hear what they are saying and where they are coming from and try to explain the offence that this can cause to so many people and the hurt," he said.
