Dissident threat level increases in No. Ireland
|
The threat from dissident republicans in Northern Ireland is higher than at any time since the Omagh bomb almost 12 years ago, according to police.
Senior police officers believe rival factions in the Real IRA and Continuity IRA have increased co-operation and stepped up recruitment. There is concern that they may try to disrupt the election campaign.
Security sources have told the BBC the dissident situation has "deteriorated significantly".
The threat posed by dissidents has been officially classified as "severe" for the past 14 months. The assessment was increased from "substantial" last February.
This means the security service MI5, which is responsible for gathering intelligence believes an attack is highly likely.
