The Irish Republican Army have threatened more attacks on the crown forces after a volunteer appeared at an Easter Rising commemoration in Derry City Cemetery on easter monday organised by the 32 County Sovereignty Movement and read a statement from “the leadership of Óglaigh na h’Éireann”.
The IRA volunteer, dressed in a dark raincoat and black balaclava, appeared from the crowd towards the end of the commemoration to the applause of the several hundred people in attendance.
The masked volunteer stated “the IRA will continue to attack Crown force personnel and their installations as well as British interests and infrastructure,”and he also said the IRA would work with other dissident republican groups.
He continued by saying that “Republican unity remains a key objective and we will work closely with other organisations, and that “continued divisions within republicanism only serve the interests of our enemies,”.
The masked man also claimed there is only one IRA and that “the challenge for republicans remains the removal of the British presence and violation of our sovereignty. The Irish Republican Army will continue to challenge this violation.
“There is only Irish Republican Army and it is present in this cemetery today,” he said.
His speech was greeted with loud applause and cheering from the crowd.
