Israeli media reports on Sunday suggested that there are estimations within "Israel" of the possibility of missile launches from Yemen and Iraq.

The missile launches come in light of paramount solidarity with the Palestinian people from Yemen and Iraq, with the support of Sanaa and Baghdad seeking to respond to the Israeli occupation for its crimes.

Earlier, Israeli media discussed an additional threat to "Israel" after Yemen's Ansar Allah movement announced its readiness to mobilize on the popular and military levels to practically and directly engage in upcoming confrontations.

This comes as Hezbollah increases its operations on Israeli military bases and outposts located on occupied Lebanese lands in support of Gaza, which is witnessing daily Israeli massacres. In its latest report, the Palestinian health ministry said that the total number of Martyrs in the Strip surpassed 4,200, including more than 1,700 children.

In the same context, the military spokesperson for the Iraqi Kataib Hezbollah, Jaafar al-Husseini, announced on Wednesday that the Iraqi Resistance has entered the battlefield as of today and is directing its strikes toward US bases.

Al-Husseini told Al Mayadeen that the Iraqi Resistance achieved today its first hits, confirming the continuation of its operations at a higher pace.

Sources in the Iraqi Islamic Resistance have also confirmed to Al Mayadeen on Wednesday that the Resistance in Iraq claimed responsibility for multiple operations targeting US forces located on Iraqi soil, vowing more operations.

Fighters of the Resistance Axis will go down in history: PFLP

The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) confirmed in a statement on Friday that the strikes delivered by the Resistance Axis against the Zionist-American aggression forces in all fields and arenas of confrontation are "the perfect response to the aggressor camp's persistence in a war of genocide and criminality against our nations."

In a statement, the Resistance group said, "The sacrifices made by Resistance fighters will go down in the history of our nation and the world. They are the ones who will create victory and defeat the alliance of aggression."

"The winds of fire are storming the Israeli occupation army at the hands of the heroes of Hezbollah in Lebanon since the beginning of the aggression, while the heroes of Resistance in Iraq have risen and opened the path of targeting the bases of the American occupation; the head of all evil and aggression."

Furthermore, the statement also highlighted that the missiles launched from Yemen reaffirmed all the meanings of the nation's unity and reflected the meaning of synergy between the oppressed and the Resistance forces against the invading colonizers.

It also stressed that "continuing to direct strikes against the interests and bases of the Americans and its Zionist agent is what protects our people, after the United States, the UK, and France have taken the Security Council and the United Nations institutions hostage to the will and policy of US-Zionist terrorism."

It emphasized that cohesion and rallying of nations around Palestine to protect its people, as well as unifying the acts of Resistance with those of Palestinians, will lead to the defeat of the occupation entity and "open the doors of victory and liberation."
