The Islamic Resistance in Iraq announced it carried out 11 operations against US occupation bases in Iraq and Syria yesterday, in response to the Israeli occupation's crimes against the people of Gaza.

The Iraqi Islamic Resistance revealed in a statement that it targeted American bases using dozens of rockets and drones, directly hitting the intended target.

In a statement on Telegram, a senior official in the Iraqi Hezbollah Brigades, Abu Ali Al-Askari, confirmed that the Resistance operations against the US occupation will continue until the last soldier is expelled from Iraq.

Abu Ali al-Askari explained that "yesterday's operations mark the start of a new phase of confrontations, and the coming days will determine the intensity of our response."

"Any foolishness from the American enemy will be met with severe retaliatory measures and an expansion of operations."

Al-Askari slams 'US stooges' in Iraq

Al-Askari opened up his statement by commending the fighters of the Iraqi Resistance who are racing to execute valiant operations against the US occupation sites in the country, saying that many in Iraq quiver with the onset of these operations as they fear for their bureaucratic privileges, which are conditioned upon the persistence of the occupation.

"If the Iraqi government wishes to negotiate with the [US] over their withdrawal from Iraq, [then be it] we will not stand in the way, even though we categorically believe that [negotiation] is but another US lie."

The Iraqi Resistance chief described the US embassy in Iraq as being a "den of espionage," which serves as an advanced base for organizing military and security operations. 

"Some peg their honor to this embassy. They advertise it as a diplomatic mission that must be protected, prioritizing its security and personal gains over their national interests. They willingly subordinate themselves to it to preserve their status, which will be gone as soon as the occupation is."

He also condemned the collusion of some officers with the American occupation, stressing that this collaboration would render them lackeys for the US occupation, which will not be tolerated by the honorable people of Iraq.
