The Islamic Resistance in Iraq launched a series of one-way attack drones at vital Israeli targets in the occupied northern and southern territories.
The announcement made at dawn on Thursday comes after the group revealed that its fighters launched drones at an Israeli target in occupied Umm al-Rashrash (Eilat) in southern occupied Palestine, on the Red Sea’s coast.
While Israeli air defenses were activated over Eilat on Wednesday night, with footage showing an interceptor missile being fired, the military later acknowledged that the drone never actually entered their occupied territory.

Undeterred, the Iraqi Resistance vowed to continue its campaign, stating that the operations were in support of the Palestinian and Lebanese people. True to their word, the group launched another set of drones at northern occupied targets later on Thursday morning.
