“I’ll work for all of Israel, even those who hate me.”

The Iraqi resistance recently issued a statement detailing their latest action against the Israeli air base in Eilat. In their announcement, they cited their ongoing commitment to opposing the occupation by the Zionist regime, expressing solidarity with the residents of Gaza, and condemning the killing of Palestinian civilians. This strike marks the fourth assault conducted by the Iraqi resistance on occupied territories within a span of fewer than 12 hours, indicating a heightened level of activity and determination.
Earlier on Tuesday, the group had targeted the Israeli base named "Jonathan" in another drone strike, showcasing their persistence in confronting perceived aggressors. Accompanying their declaration, the umbrella group of resistance factions in Iraq also released video footage capturing the moment of their drone attack on the Zionist military's air base in the port of Eilat (Um al-Rasrash), situated south of occupied Palestine. This visual evidence serves to underscore the potency and precision of their actions.
The current escalation in attacks by regional resistance groups, including Iraq’s Islamic Resistance, underscores a broader trend of defiance against perceived injustices, particularly in the wake of the Israeli military's aggressive actions in Gaza. As such, these strikes represent a tangible expression of resistance against both Israeli and US interests in the region.
