Description:
The Continuity Irish Republican Army (CIRA) is a radical terrorist group dedicated to removing British forces from Northern Ireland and unifying Ireland . 

Activities:
Bombings, assassinations, kidnappings, extortion, and robberies. Before its 1994 cease-fire, targets included senior British Government officials, British military and 
police in Northern Ireland, and Northern Irish Loyalist paramilitary groups. Since breaking its cease-fire in February 1996, IRA's operations have included bombing 
campaigns against train and subway stations and shoppping areas on mainland Britain, British military and Royal Ulster Constabulary targets in Northern Ireland, and 
a British military facility on the European Continent. The Council has claimed responsibility for attacks on the police and army and is suspected in a number of other 
sectarian attacks in Northern Ireland, including a car bomb attack in Markethill in September 1997. 

Strength:
Officially estimated at approximately one hundred in late 1997, plus several hundred sympathizers. The extent and professionalism of its campaign have both grown 
as the number of defectors from the IRA have increased. It is thought to be strongest in County Fermanagh and stronger in Derry than Belfast.
