Iraqi groups announced that they had targeted, using drones, a vital target in the port city of Eilat, south of Israel, and an Al Jazeera journalist said that sirens sounded in the city.
The “Islamic Resistance in Iraq”, in a statement on the Telegram platform, said that it “bombed a vital target in Umm al-Rashrash (Eilat) in our residential areas, using drones,” and vowed to keep on us hitting those strongholds, he said as enemies at an ever-increasing pace.
The attack comes a day after Lebanon’s Hezbollah Secretary-General, Hassan Nasrallah, was assassinated in an Israeli airstrike last Friday night, which also led to the killing of prominent party leaders and a commander in Iran’s Revolutionary Guard. .
The “Islamic Resistance in Iraq” includes groups, specifically the Hezbollah Brigades, Al-Nujaba Brigades, and the Sayyid Al-Shuhada Brigades, which are 3 groups targeted by sanctions the US.
Since last April, Israel has confirmed that several airstrikes took place from the east without pointing the finger at a specific party, saying that it stopped the drones outside the range- they have air.
