Óglaigh na hÉireann (Real IRA splinter group) (original) (raw)

Óglaigh na hÉireann (pronounced [ˈoːɡl̪ˠiː n̪ˠə ˈheːɾʲən̪ˠ]; ONH) was the title taken by a small dissident Irish republican paramilitary group that took part in the dissident Irish Republican campaign. The organisation started carrying out attacks around 2009 and was formed after a split within the Real IRA, led by Seamus McGrane. The group called a ceasefire in January 2018. However, a group of members formed the new group Irish Republican Movement and threatened to continue to fight what they call Crown Forces.
