Two months later on 15 August the Omagh bombing caused by the Real IRA killed almost 30 people and injured over 250 more . The shock and outrage in Ireland and Britain over the human cost of the bomb was such that the Real IRA soon called a ceasefire and so did the INLA on 22 August 1998 bringing an end to their 24-year paramilitary campaign which killed over 100 people and injured hundreds more . Almost a year later , on 8 August 1999 , the INLA issued a statement saying : " There is no political or moral argument to justify a resumption of the campaign . "
