IRA

In a statement given to The Irish News, the New IRA said it offered its “full and sincere apologies” to the family and friends of Northern Irish journalist Lyra McKee. They added that new guidelines will be issued regarding the behaviour of their "volunteers" when "engaging the enemy". The 29-year-old was observing riots in Londonderry on April 18 when she was fatally shot.
Forty-six years after she was killed, the first person to be charged over her death will appear in court.
