The Islamic Resistance in Iraq issued Saturday a statement saying its fighters attacked a US occupation forces base in Syria in continuation of its response to the US aggression on Iraq on Friday.

The Iraqi Resistance said its fighters launched drone strikes at the Kharab al-Jir base in Syria, possibly in response to the US aggression on Iraq overnight Friday.

The Iraqi al-Nujaba Resistance movement on Saturday condemned the US aggression on Iraq, saying the airstrikes were "yet another violation by the US occupation forces of Iraq's sovereignty and dignity, which martyred dozens of Iraqis."

"Let the US occupation and its sinister administration know that the Islamic Resistance will respond appropriately in the time and place it sees fit," al-Nujaba stressed,

The Iraqi movement went on to underline that it yielded surprises that would "harrow our enemies and delight our allies. We will not capitulate or back down."

Following the United States' wide aggression on areas in Iraq and Syria late Saturday, the Security and Defense Committee in the Iraqi parliament said that the US-led coalition forces present in the country are "destabilizing the situation," and called on the government to expedite the reaching of an agreement on their withdrawal.

According to CENTCOM, US forces struck more than 85 targets in Iraq and Syria with numerous aircraft, including long-range bombers that were said to have taken off from the United States.

Iraq government: US forces a source of instability

Separately, the Iraqi government issued a statement warning that the recent US attacks "place the security of Iraq and the region on the brink of the abyss, and contradicts efforts to consolidate stability."

"The presence of the international coalition, which has deviated from its assigned tasks and the mandate given to it, has become a cause for security threats and instability in our country, and is involving Iraq in regional and international conflicts."

Furthermore, it accused "the US of engaging in deception and distorting facts by claiming prior coordination [with Baghdad] before committing this aggression," labeling it a "false claim" aimed at "misleading the international public opinion and shirking legal responsibility for this unacceptable crime."

The government pledged to "exert all efforts required by national responsibility to protect the land of Iraq and the lives of its sons in the armed forces across all its branches."

Finally, it reiterated Iraq's refusal to be a "ground [for parties] to settle [their] scores."

The US attacks came in response to a Resistance operation that killed three US soldiers and wounded over 40 others in Jordan as regional escalations, the root cause of which are the US and its interventionist policies, in addition to its staunch ally, the Israeli occupation.
