La Provisional IRA (Irish Republican Army, Esercito Repubblicano Irlandese), in gaelico Oglaigh na hÉireann (che letteralmente significa Volontari d'Irlanda), è stata un'organizzazione paramilitare terroristica che si batteva per la fine della presenza britannica in Irlanda del Nord e la riunificazione con la Repubblica d'Irlanda (Éire).
