The Islamic Resistance in Iraq announced Saturday two drone strikes on a strategic target in the occupied city of Umm al-Rashrash, also known as Eilat. The operations, carried out in the early hours of Saturday, involved unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and targeted a "vital facility" within the occupied city.

The Iraqi Islamic Resistance has escalated its operations against the occupation, targeting military sites in the occupied territories in solidarity with the people of Palestine and Lebanon and in response to massacres committed by the occupying entity against civilians, including children, women, and the elderly.

The Islamic Resistance fighters launched another drone attack on a military target in the northern occupied Palestinian territories. Shortly afterward, there was a fourth drone strike, this time targeting a military site in the southern occupied territories.

Later on, the Islamic Resistance fighters carried out a fifth drone strike, once again targeting a military objective in the southern occupied territories. 

The Islamic Resistance stated that these operations were a direct response to recent Israeli actions, which have led to numerous civilian casualties among Palestinians and Lebanese, including children, women, and the elderly.

In the statement, the Resistance emphasized its solidarity with the Palestinian and Lebanese people and declared its commitment to intensifying operations against Israeli targets. "Our actions are a continuation of our path to resist occupation and defend our people in Palestine and Lebanon," the statement read.

The group's statement underscored a strategy of "increasingly frequent strikes" against Israeli strongholds, pledging to maintain a heightened level of pressure on what it identifies as enemy positions. 

On Thursday, the Islamic Resistance in Iraq announced that its fighters conducted three drone attacks against vital Israeli targets.

In three separate statements, the Iraqi Resistance said that its fighters launched drone attacks on Israeli targets. All three operations targeted vital Israeli sites in northern Israeli-occupied territories. 

Earlier on Wednesday night, the Resistance launched two drone attacks, the first of which targeted the city settlement of Eilat, in southern occupied Palestine. 

Sirens sounded the Eilat at 9:26 pm (local time) as Israeli air defenses attempted to down a one-way attack drone.
