Iraqi resistance hit Eilat port

TEHRAN (defapress) - In an early Monday statement, the group, which is an umbrella for Iraq’s anti-terror fighters, said it has launched a drone strike on a vital Israeli target in the occupied port city of Umm al-Rashrash, also known as Eilat.

The Islamic Resistance in Iraq said the new operation came “in continuation of our path of resisting the occupation, in support of our people in Gaza, and response to the massacres committed by the usurping entity against Palestinian civilians, including children, women, and the elderly.”

The Iraqi resistance emphasized that its fighters would continue to target the Israeli regime’s strongholds in support of the Palestinian people.

During the past months, the Iraqi resistance has launched multiple attacks on Israel’s vital targets both in Eilat and the port city of Haifa, including the latter’s airport and oil refinery.
