Iraqi fighters strike 5 ‘israeli’ targets in support of war-hit Gazans
The fighters enlisted with Iraq’s Islamic Resistance umbrella anti-terror group have struck five Israeli targets in support of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, who are enduring a genocidal war by the occupying entity.
The resistance announced the developments in two statements in early Tuesday.
The statements said the strikes had come in continuation of “our approach 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 group said it had deployed “appropriate weapons” against the targets that included the “Asqalan oil port” in the central part of the occupied territories, and the “Hatzerim Airbase” in the city of Beersheba in the south-central part of the territories.
The resistance concluded the statements by pledging to keep up its strikes as long as the regime sustained the war.
The Israeli regime launched the war against Gaza on October 7 following Operation Al-Aqsa Storm by the territory’s resistance groups into the occupied territories.
More than 33,200 Palestinians, mostly women and children, have been killed in the brutal military onslaught so far.
The Iraqi fighters have been conducting numerous operations against targets lying throughout the occupied territories ever since the onset of the warfare.
Most recently, carrying out three anti-Israeli operations, targeting two barracks and a military base in Syria’s Tel Aviv-occupied Golan Heights and the occupied territories.
