Some Co-op stores across Scotland's islands have been running low on fresh food supplies following a cyber attack on the company.

Co-op is the main retailer in Skye and pictures from its supermarket in Portree show row upon row of empty shelves. Shops in the Western Isles have also been affected.

The disruption comes after the company told the BBC on Friday the attack on its systems had resulted in "significant" amounts of customer data being stolen.
