Republican terrorists are plotting a campaign of violence to force migrants out og Ireland, intelligence officials have told The Mail on Sunday.
The plan by the New IRA – the successor organization to the Real IRA – comes in the wake of the disturbances on the streets of Northern Ireland in June following the stabbing of Stephen Oglivie, allegedly by Hadi Alodid, a Sudanese asylum-seeker.
Security sources say that the dissident republicans, who continue to fight for a “united Ireland”, are feeding off local community tensions on both sides of the border over a spike in cases of harassment, sexual assault and violence, which has been blamed on migrants.
Fears have been raised that the New IRA campaign could spark a new wave of migrants fleeing from Ireland into the UK, particularly via the land border with Northern Ireland.
In a video posted last week on a far-Right social media platform, an unidentified man warned that the IRA would threaten migrants with violence if they did not leave Ireland. “They will take control, and they will give an ultimatum, not to politicians but to the illegal migrants who are in the country,” he says.
