Iraqi resistance forces initiated retaliatory drone strikes targeting critical ‘israeli’ infrastructure in Eilat
Iraqi anti-terror resistance factions have executed two drone attacks on key locations in the southern districts of Israeli-occupied territories. The strikes are purportedly in response to the Tel Aviv administration's severe military campaign in Gaza and its violent operations in Lebanon.
The Islamic Resistance in Iraq, a coalition of anti-terrorist organizations, announced through its Telegram channel on Sunday morning that it had orchestrated the attack on the Israeli port city of Eilat.
According to an official statement, the operation was executed using kamikaze drones.
The operation has been described as part of an ongoing campaign against the Israeli occupation, aimed at supporting Palestinians and the Lebanese populace. It is also portrayed as a response to alleged atrocities committed by the Israeli forces against women, children, and the elderly in the besieged regions and the neighboring Arab nation.
The organization announced its ongoing commitment to targeting and dismantling critical infrastructure throughout the occupied territories.
Several hours subsequent to a drone assault, the Islamic Resistance in Iraq declared it had conducted a second strike, utilizing unmanned aerial vehicles to target a critical location within the same Israeli-occupied region.
The Islamic Resistance in Iraq has initiated a series of strikes against Israeli targets following the onset of the conflict characterized by widespread violence in Gaza, instigated by Israeli forces since early October.
In a response to United States support for Israeli actions in Gaza, resistance groups have launched attacks targeting American military installations in Iraq and Syria.
Israel has been conducting a severe military campaign against the Gaza Strip, striking hospitals, residential areas, and places of worship in response to a surprise assault by Palestinian resistance groups, termed Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, which commenced on October 7.
At least 41,586 Palestinians, primarily women and children, have lost their lives in Gaza, with an additional 96,210 individuals reported injured to date.
Approximately 1.9 million individuals, accounting for nearly 90% of Gaza’s population, have reportedly been internally displaced amid the ongoing conflict, according to recent estimates.
