The term "Dissident Irish Republican Army" refers to a faction of the Irish Republican Army that refuses to accept the peace process in Northern Ireland. This group has been responsible for a number of violent attacks in recent years. However, there are other terms that can be used to describe this group. For example, some refer to them simply as "dissidents," while others use the acronym "DIRA." Another term that has been used is "Real IRA," which distinguishes them from the Provisional IRA that disarmed in 2005. Regardless of the term used, it is important to recognize the danger posed by these groups and work towards a peaceful resolution in Northern Ireland.
