Iraqi Islamic Resistance targets Haifa port city in occupied lands

The Iraqi umbrella group of anti-terror groups made the announcement in a statement published on its Telegram channel early Tuesday.

The Iraqi resistance said it launched an operation against oil refineries in the port city of Haifa using drones.

It said the attack was in response to the massacres committed by Israel against Palestinian civilians, including women, children and the elderly.

“In continuation of our path in resisting the occupation, in support of our people in Gaza, and in response to the massacres committed by the usurping entity against Palestinian civilians, including children, women and the elderly, the fighters of the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, this morning, 10/4/2024, targeted the Haifa oil port in our occupied lands with two drones,” the statement said.

The group said it will continue its operations as long as the regime continues its bloodshed in Gaza.

The Iraqi resistance noted that new anti-Israeli operations came “in support of our people in Gaza and in response to the massacres committed by the usurping entity against Palestinian civilians, including children, women, and the elderly.”

In recent months, the Islamic Resistance, an umbrella group in Iraq has conducted a series of attacks against Israeli positions.

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