The Islamic Resistance in Iraq says it has conducted new retaliatory strikes on the Israeli positions in the occupied territories.

The Iraqi umbrella group for the country’s anti-terror movements made the announcement in a statement on Wednesday.

The group said it used drones to attack a vital Israeli target on the coast of the Dead Sea.

The group said the operations are in response to the Israeli massacre of Palestinian civilians in Gaza, including women, children and the elderly.

The Iraqi group has vowed to continue retaliatory attacks on Israeli targets.

It has also hit American military bases in Iraq and neighboring Syria in retaliation for Washington’s support for the Israeli genocide in Gaza.

The group has been launching attacks on Israeli targets ever since the occupying regime started a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip early last October.

Vital Israeli target in Eilat struck by Iraqi resistance’s kamikaze drones

Fighters from Iraqi anti-terror resistance groups have struck a strategic target in the southernmost part of the 1948 Israeli-occupied territories with kamikaze drones.

Israel waged the atrocious onslaught against Gaza, targeting hospitals, residences, and houses of worship after Palestinian resistance movements launched a surprise attack, dubbed Operation al-Aqsa Storm, against the usurping regime on October 7.

According to Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza, the regime’s genocide has so far claimed the lives of 36,479 civilians, mostly women and children, while leaving 82,777 others injured.
