The Secretary-General of the Iraqi Kataib Hezbollah, Abu Hussein al-Hamidawi, announced, on Saturday, a reduction in the pace of operations against the US occupation bases in the region, until the end of the declared truce that has been implemented between “Israel” and the Gaza Strip.

Al-Hamidawi said that the confrontations with the forces occupying Iraq will not stop until it is liberated, stressing that this is "a decision from which we [the Resistance in Iraq] will not deviate, no matter how heavy the sacrifices are."

In his statement, he called on Iraqis who remain confined to their homes to "join the ranks of the Resistance and liberate Iraq from the occupation."

Iraqi Resistance: Enemy to see blows until Palestine's liberation

Kataib Hezbollah, part of the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, affirmed its solidarity with the Gaza Strip and the Palestinian Resistance amid Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, stressing its commitment to direct strikes against the enemy, in response to the crimes of the Zionist-American aggression.

The Brigades said, in a statement, on Thursday, that the legendary steadfastness of the Palestinian people "in the face of the brutality of the Zionists, supported by the latest American military and intelligence machines, in addition to the support of England, France, and other Western countries, would not have been possible without their patience and belief in the necessity of regaining their rights stolen from the usurping entity."

Kataib Hezbollah also indicated that despite the Palestinians being exposed to various types of crimes and genocide, they "are still steadfast and seeking the liberation of their land and sanctities."

Moreover, the statement touched on the US involvement in the deprivation of the Palestinian people of their rights and freedom while also supporting the aggression against them, including but not limited to the besieging of cities, cutting off water, food, and medicine, the destruction of buildings, displacing civilians, storming and bombing mosques and hospitals, and killing women and children.

According to the statement, the US-Israeli war crimes "will not pass without deterrence and punishment," and pledged that "the enemy will receive from us the harshest blows" in any location possibly reached by the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, "until the liberation of the land of Palestine from the river to the sea."
