Abstract
There is provided a method performed by a first network node (101) for handling handover failures for a target cell (112), which target cell is applicable for handover of a wireless device (121) in a wireless communications network (100) from a source cell (111) to the target cell. The target cell is associated (202) with an indication indicating that the target cell is unsuitable for handover, when an amount of failed handovers from the source cell to the target cell exceeds (201) a failure threshold.
