The Islamic Resistance in Iraq has claimed responsibility for targeting the Harir US base in the Iraqi Kurdistan Region using two drones.
The Iraqi Islamic Resistance continues to target American bases in Iraq and Syria in conjunction with Operation Al-Aqsa Flood and the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip.
On Friday, the Resistance announced targeting the US occupation base, Kharab al-Jir, in northeastern Syria with a salvo of rockets, achieving direct hits.
Additionally, it declared hitting a vital site of the Israeli occupation in "Eilat" in support of Gaza, which has been facing continuous Israeli aggression for 29 days, and in response to the Israeli massacres against Palestinian civilians.
The Islamic Resistance in Iraq announced, at dawn on Friday, that it "will begin next week a new phase in confronting the enemies, in support of Palestine, and in revenge for the martyrs", stressing that it will be "tougher and broader against the enemy’s bases in the region."
On Thursday, the Resistance announced that it attacked a vital target for the Israeli occupation on the coast of the Dead Sea.
It indicated in a statement that the attack came in response to the massacres committed by the Israeli occupation against Palestinian civilians, including children, women, and the elderly.
The Islamic Resistance in Iraq also confirmed that it would continue to "strike the enemy's strongholds."
A couple of days ago, the Secretary-General of the Iraqi Kataib Hezbollah, Sheikh Akram al-Kaabi, said the faction had set its mind on liberating Iraq, utilizing military means. "This is settled," he sternly said.
Sheikh al-Kaabi promised that the movement would continue its armed struggle until the goal of expelling United States military forces from Iraq is achieved.
"We will not stop, we will not settle, we will not back out," the leader emphasized, promising greater action in the coming days.
The US set up its bases in Iraq following its invasion and occupation of the country in 2003. Although Washington has reduced its military presence in Iraq under the plight of the resistance, it still maintains tens of camps and two airbases in the country.
Amid the ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza, the Resistance in Iraq rose to the occasion and has been targeting US military bases in northeastern Syria and Iraq since October 13. The attacks come in opposition to the US-backed Israeli aggression on Gaza and in the context of expelling foreign forces from Iraq, which has suffered for more than 20 years from the US aggressive foreign policy in the Middle East.
