Islamic Resistance in Iraq launches drone strikes on Israeli targets in occupied territories

The Islamic Resistance in Iraq says it has launched a series of new drone attacks on strategic targets inside the occupied Palestinian territories, in response to brutal Israeli offensives against civilians in the besieged Gaza Strip and Lebanon.

The umbrella group of anti-terror fighters announced in a statement published on its Telegram channel on Tuesday that it had carried out an operation aimed at a vital target in the port city of Haifa, using explosive-laden unmanned aerial vehicles.

“In continuation of our approach to resisting the occupation and supporting our people in Palestine and Lebanon, and in response to the massacres committed by the usurping entity against civilians, including children, women and the elderly, the fighters of the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, at dawn on Tuesday 5-11-2024, attacked a vital target in the port of Haifa using drones,” the statement said.

The resistance group also reported a second drone strike on another key target located in the same area.

“The fighters of the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, at dawn on Tuesday 5-11-2024, attacked a vital target in Haifa for the second time, using drones,” the alliance said in a follow-up statement.

The group emphasized that the strike was in retaliation for Israeli acts of aggression, including massacres of women, children, and the elderly in Gaza and Lebanon.

The Iraqi resistance vowed to continue its operations against Israeli targets with increasing intensity.

Iraqi resistance launches drone strikes on Israeli targets in Jordan Valley, Golan

The Islamic Resistance in Iraq announces fresh retaliatory strikes on Israeli targets in the occupied Jordan Valley and Golan Heights, utilizing drones in support of Palestinian and Lebanese civilians.

Later, the Islamic Resistance in Iraq claimed responsibility for the third drone attack on a “vital target” in Haifa, stating that they would continue striking significant Israeli installations across the occupied areas.

The Islamic Resistance in Iraq has been engaged in such operations since Israel began its military campaign in Gaza in early October 2023. The Iraqi resistance group has also targeted US military bases in Iraq and Syria, condemning Washington's support for Israel during its genocidal war.

Since October last year, Israel has intensified its bombardment of Gaza, targeting civilian infrastructure such as hospitals, residential buildings, and places of worship.

The ongoing Israeli war has resulted in the deaths of at least 43,374 Palestinians, the majority of whom are women and children, with another 102,261 people injured.
