Iraqi resistance strikes target in Jordan Valley in fresh pro-Palestinian operation

Iraq’s Islamic Resistance, an umbrella group of anti-terror fighters, has struck a target lying in the Jordan Valley in a fresh pro-Palestinian operation.

The resistance released the information in a statement on Monday, saying it had carried out the operation using kamikaze drones earlier in the day.

The strike was conducted “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 statement read.

The resistance has been performing numerous such operations against sensitive targets lying across the occupied Palestinian territories since October 7 last year, when the Israeli regime began bringing the Gaza Strip under a genocidal war.

Its most recent operation of the type came on September 4, when it hit a strategic target in the port of Haifa in the northern part of the occupied territories with a squadron of kamikaze drones.

The brutal Israeli military onslaught against Gaza has so far claimed the lives of at least 41,206 Palestinians, most of them women and children.

Concluding the Monday statement, the resistance vowed to continue “striking the enemy's strongholds with increasing intensity.”

Since early August, the umbrella group has also stepped up its operations against United States-occupied bases across Iraq and neighboring Syria.

The operations have been seeking to convey its protest at Washington’s unquestioning political, military, and intelligence support for Tel Aviv’s atrocities against Palestinians.

Later in August, Harakat Hezbollah al-Nujaba, a component of the Iraqi coalition, claimed responsibility for an earlier strike against the US-occupied Ain al-Assad Airbase in western Iraq.

It also said it would launch further attacks that would “surprise” the enemy both inside and outside the Iraqi territory.
