OSINT Summary: Dissident republican groups merge in Northern Ireland

By Matt Henman

7/27/2012

In a statement sent to UK newspaper The Guardian on 26 July, several dissident republican organisations stated that they had merged "within a unified structure, under a single leadership, subservient to the constitution of the Irish Republican Army [IRA]". The statement was signed in the name of the "IRA Army Council".

The statement said that armed struggle against the "British military presence in our country... [and] their armed militias" would continue until the "establishment of a free and independent [unified] Ireland", along with the "dismantling of British political interference in our country".
