The Islamic Resistance in Iraq 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.

The Resistance confirmed targeting the Ain al-Assad airbase, which hosts US forces in western Iraq, with two armed drones.

Earlier today, the US base of Harir in northern Iraq also came under attack with drones, the responsibility of which was also claimed by the Iraqi Resistance.

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."

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.

Pentagon confirms 56 attacks on US troops in Iraq, Syria since Oct.17

On Tuesday, the Pentagon reported 56 incidents of targets on US troops in Iraq and Syria since October 17.

Sabrina Singh, the Deputy Press Secretary of the Pentagon, informed journalists that out of the 59 US personnel who sustained injuries, 32 were categorized with non-serious injuries, while the remaining 27 individuals suffered from traumatic brain injury (TBI).

On November 8, in response to American aggression, the Yemeni Armed Forces shot down a US MQ-9 Reaper drone near the Yemeni Coast. The drone was reportedly surveilling Yemen when the Yemeni Armed Forces shot it down.

Since the drone was shot down, the US has not responded, and the Yemeni Armed Forces have threatened to act against Israeli ships in the Red Sea.

Singh was questioned by a reporter regarding the absence of a response from the US military and whether this silence was encouraging further assertive actions from the Yemeni Armed Forces.

"I wouldn’t say that it’s inviting more aggressive or further response from the Houthis. We’ve seen the Houthis do this before," Singh said, adding "We’ve seen one of our MQ-9s shot down before in the past. I’m not saying that we’re not going to respond. We always reserve the right to respond at a time and place of our choosing."
