The Iraqi resistance said it launched an operation against Ovda air base south of the occupied Palestinian territories on Monday.

The Islamic Resistance in Iraq has said it carried out a strike on the Palestinian territories occupied by Israel.

The Iraqi umbrella group of anti-terror groups announced in a statement published on its Telegram channel on Friday.

The Iraqi resistance said it launched an operation against Ovda air base south of the occupied Palestinian territories on Monday.

“In continuation of our path in resisting the occupation, in support of our people in Gaza, and in response to the massacres committed by the usurping entity against Palestinian civilians, including children, women and the elderly, the fighters of the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, on Monday, 15/4/2024, targeted the Zionist entity’s ‘Ovda’ Air Base in our occupied territories with drones,” said the statement.

It said the attack was in response to the massacres committed by Israel against Palestinian civilians, including women, children and the elderly.

The group said it will continue its operations against Israeli targets.

The coalition has been staging many such attacks on Israeli targets since the occupying regime launched a genocidal war on Gaza in October.

Israeli military aircraft have struck positions in Syria’s southwestern provinces of Daraa and As-Suwayda as well as neighboring Iraq.

The regime began the war on October 7 after Gaza’s resistance groups carried out a retaliatory operation against the usurping entity.

Since the start of the offensive, the Tel Aviv regime has killed more than 34,000 Palestinians, most of them women and children.

Iraq’s Islamic Resistance has been conducting numerous operations against targets lying throughout the occupied territories ever since the onset of the warfare.
