The Irish Republican Army (IRA), and derived names, are names used by various terrorist organisations in Ireland throughout the 20th and the 21st century, claiming all Ireland should be a single republic, independent from British rule. They also have a political party front, Sinn Féin, which has a considerable standing in Northern Ireland.

The IRA have been responsible for appalling atrocities and murders of civilians, Members of Parliament, police, and military, killing over 1800 people.[1]
