Iraq resistance attacks Israel with advanced cruise missiles
The Islamic resistance in Iraq says it has targeted three areas in the heart of the Israeli-occupied territories using many advanced cruise missiles.
The umbrella group for Iraqi resistance fighters said in a statement that the fighters of the Islamic Resistance in Iraq on Tuesday "attacked targets in three areas in the heart of the entity, using a number of Al-Arqab advanced cruise missiles.”
The Iraqi resistance said that the operation was carried out in support of Palestinian and Lebanese people.
The strike was also in response to the massacres committed by the usurping Israeli regime against civilians, including women, children, and the elderly across the occupied territories.
In recent months, the group has performed many operations against US bases in Iraq and neighboring Syria over Washington’s unbridled support for Israel’s crimes in Gaza.
On Tuesday morning, the Iraq Resistance launched a series of rockets targeting a US base in the Iraqi capital, Baghdad.
Multiple Katyusha rockets were fired near Baghdad International Airport, two Iraqi military officials told Reuters.
Three rockets were fired at a base, housing US troops at Baghdad International Airport.
The Islamic Resistance in Iraq has been launching attacks on Israeli targets ever since the occupying regime started the genocidal war on Gaza in early October.
The resistance has also been hitting American military bases in Iraq and neighboring Syria in retaliation for Washington’s support for the Israeli genocide in Gaza.
Israel has been waging an atrocious onslaught against the Gaza Strip, targeting hospitals, residences, and houses of worship after Palestinian resistance movements launched a surprise attack, dubbed Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, on October 7.
At least 41,600 Palestinians have been killed, most of them women and children, and another 96,210 individuals have sustained injuries in Gaza so far.
Around 1.9 million people – about 9 in 10 of Gaza’s population – are estimated to have been internally displaced during the war as well.
