“Officers attended the scene, along with colleagues from the Northern Ireland Ambulance Service, who took the woman on to hospital for treatment to her injuries.
“There were a number of people in the property at the time of the attack, including another woman and a man, along with a number of children.
“A significant amount of damage was caused to the interior of the house, with numerous items smashed before the men made off.
“We believe the suspects turned right after leaving the house and then ran down an alleyway beside the next-door property.”
The PSNI said it was a “very distressing incident” for all concerned.
