On Wednesday, the resistance said it launched a barrage of rockets on the US occupation base at al Omar oil field. 

Hashem al-Kindi, the head of the Naba Strategic Studies Group, told Al Mayadeen that "the Islamic Resistance in Iraq has carried out more than 70 strikes on American bases, and the escalation is ongoing."

He added that the Resistance in Iraq "used new weapons with long ranges, and it will also escalate by targeting Israel," confirming that it "can push the confrontation to ranges unknown to the enemy."

The Iraqi resistance has stated multiple times that it considers US occupation bases in Syria and Iraq as legitimate targets due to US complicity in the Gaza genocide and unwavering support to the Israeli regime. 

On a similar note, the Pentagon said in a statement that the rate of attacks carried out against US personnel in Iraq and Syria has increased by 45% in the past three weeks.
