The Islamic Resistance in Iraq says it has stricken a target in the city of Umm Rashrash, also known as Eilat, in the southern part of Occupied Palestine in retaliation for Israel’s genocidal war in the besieged Gaza Strip.

“The fighters of Islamic Resistance in Iraq targeted a target in the occupied Umm Rashrash (Eilat) using the appropriate weapons,” the movement said in a statement on Friday. The attack comes “in support of our people in Gaza and in response to the massacres committed by the usurping entity against the civilian Palestinians.”

However, Israeli media reports claimed that Jordan foiled a drone attack launched by the Iraqi resistance forces on Umm Rashrash, as it intercepted the aircraft in its airspace.

Israel launched the war on Gaza on October 7 after the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas waged the surprise Operation Al-Aqsa Storm against the occupying entity in response to the Israeli regime’s decades-long violence against Palestinians.

Since the start of the offensive, the Tel Aviv regime has killed over 20,000 Palestinians and injured more than 52,600 others. Thousands more are also missing and presumed dead under the rubble in Gaza, which is under “complete siege” by Israel.

Meanwhile, anti-US sentiments are also running high across the region over Washington’s firm support for the Israeli onslaught against Palestinians in the besieged strip.

The Iraqi resistance forces have also targeted major US military bases in Syria and Iraq, where forces and trainers are stationed, warning the United States against funding and supporting Israeli war crimes against the Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip.

Since the onset of the war on October 7, the United States has backed Israel’s ferocious attacks on Palestinian territory as a means of “self-defense.” The United States, Israel’s biggest ally, has provided the regime with more arms and ammunition since then.

Washington has also vetoed United Nations Security Council resolutions that called on the occupying regime to cease its aggression.
