dissident republican group has threatened to kill police officers and says it will oppose the Queen's first visit to the Republic of Ireland.
In a statement, a masked member of the Real IRA told a crowd in a Londonderry cemetery: "The Queen of England is wanted for war crimes in Ireland and not wanted on Irish soil."
He added that the police were "as liable for execution as anyone regardless of their religion, cultural background or motivation".
The rally was reported to have been organised by the 32 County Sovereignty Movement to mark the anniversary of the 1916 Easter Rising.
The statement read: "Despite the best efforts of the media, big business and other power blocks to portray this visit as acceptable, we clearly state that the Irish people will not capitulate.
"The Queen of England is wanted for war crimes in Ireland and not wanted on Irish soil.
"We will do our best to ensure she and the gombeen class that act as her cheerleaders get that message."
