An Iraqi Resistance faction has pledged thousands of its fighters to support the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah, following the treacherous Israeli terror attacks on Lebanon. 

The Secretary-General of Iraqi Kataib Sayyed al-Shuhada, Abu Alaa al-Walai, said that thousands of Iraqis will be "fully mobilized" if ordered by Hezbollah's Secretary-General, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah. 

"We, dear Abu Hadi, with our resistance, weapons, wealth, and lives, are soldiers fully mobilized under your command," the leader of the Iraqi Resistance faction wrote in a letter sent to Hezbolah's chief on Wednesday. 

"If you have lost a thousand martyrs, we will provide you with one hundred thousand heroes. And Allah is witness to what we say," al-Walai wrote. 

The official emphasized unity between the different peoples of the Axis of Resistance in his letter, saying that a "torrent" of Iraqi fighters was ready to fill the frontlines in Lebanon if needed.

Resistance maintains readiness to face Israeli aggression

Sayyed Nasrallah spoke on Thursday to confirm that the Islamic Resistance maintains its battlefield capabilities, as Lebanese Resistance fighters executed 17 operations against Israeli military targets throughout the day. The damage resulting from one of these operations, which targeted a military site in the Israeli Metulla settlement, was described as "enormous" by a local Israeli official. 

Despite nearly 3,000 injuries recorded across Lebanon as a result of "Israel's" detonation of explosive-laden wireless communication devices and the martyrdom of 39 Resistance fighters under different conditions in the past few days, Hezbollah continues to maintain its operational capabilities. Additionally, more than 52 Israeli air raids were launched on Lebanon on Thursday night, supposedly targeting Hezbollah's rocket launchers. 

The next morning Hezbollah fired more than 150 rockets at Israeli targets, according to the Israeli military command.
