Iraqi resistance groups announced a series of long-range drone attacks on Israeli targets on Thursday, marking a significant escalation in regional hostilities.

The Iraqi factions reported that their fighters conducted seven separate attacks using one-way attack drones, targeting strategic sites in areas across Israeli-occupied territories from dawn until midnight.

According to statements from the resistance groups, two of the drone attacks targeted critical infrastructure in the occupied Syrian Golan Heights, while others were distributed across northern, central, and southern occupied territories. In a statement, they clarified that “northern occupied territories” refers to al-Jalil in northern occupied Palestine, where two key targets were hit, and that “southern occupied territories” refers to the occupied coastal area of Umm al-Rashrash (Eilat) on the Red Sea, where two additional attacks were conducted.

The Iraqi resistance factions underscored their commitment to increasing these operations in solidarity with Palestine and Lebanon. Late Thursday night, the resistance groups claimed responsibility for three further drone strikes on high-priority targets in southern Israel, activating Israeli air defenses over Eilat. Additional strikes targeted infrastructure in the Golan Heights.

The Iraqi groups reaffirmed that these actions are intended to support Palestinian and Lebanese resistance and have promised further escalation in the coming days. The Israeli occupation forces have yet to release a formal statement regarding the extent of damage or casualties following these attacks. (ILKHA)
