The Iraqi Resistance's response to any targeting of the country or use of its territory or airspace to strike Iran will not be limited to "Israel" but will extend to US bases and interests in Iraq and the region, warned the head of the Iraqi Hezbollah Brigades Security Bureau.

Abu Ali al-Askari indicated that the Iraqi Resistance will not start a war that involves the energy sector, but if it does break out, the world will lose 12 million barrels per day, "and this is what we will make sure of," he made it clear.

"This is what we will be taking care of, but only God knows what our brethren in Yemen will do in Bab al-Mandab and our brethren in Iran will do in the Strait of Hormuz," he further warned.

This comes as the Israeli occupation regime has threatened to respond to Iran's Operation True Promise II, which saw the Islamic Republic launching at least 200 ballistic missiles against Israeli military and intelligence facilities across the occupied Palestinian territories in retaliation for the Israeli assassination of Hamas political bureau chief Ismail Haniyeh, Hezbollah Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, and IRGC General Abbas Nilforoushan.

The missiles fired by the IRGC's Aerospace Force targeted strategic Israeli military sites, including three air bases in Tel Nof, Nevatim, and Hatzerim. 

The IRGC confirmed in a statement that the missile attacks targeted "three military bases" around Tel Aviv, as well as air and radar bases, adding that "90 percent" of the missiles "hit their targets."

According to the IRGC, the Nevatim base houses the F-35 fighter jets, while the Hatzerim base houses the F-15 fighter jets that were used to assassinate martyr Sayyed Nasrallah.

Satellite images published by the Associated Press (AP) showed the damage to the Nevatim base as a result of the Iranian strikes. The images, taken after the Iranian operation, show a large hole in the roof of a row of buildings near the main runway, while large pieces of debris can be seen scattered around the building.

The statement warned that if "Israel" acts in response to Operation True Promise II, "it will face violent consequences."

Although the Israeli occupation regime has threatened to respond, Iranian officials have warned that any further action would be met with a harsh, proportional, and calculated response from Tehran.

Al-Askari's statement also comes after the Israeli Channel 14 recently leaked an image revealing what it described as  "Israel's target list" of prominent regional leaders, which included Iraq's highest religious authority, Sayyed Ali al-Sistani, who was marked as a "legitimate target."

It is noteworthy that since the onset of the Israeli war on Gaza, the Islamic Resistance in Iraq has been engaged in the support front for the Palestinian people and their Resistance, so far launching numerous rocket and drone attacks on Israeli targets in occupied territories.

Most recently, the Israeli occupation military reported that two of its soldiers were killed and 24 others injured in a drone strike carried out from Iraq early a couple of days ago.

The Israeli military spokesperson announced, under the "permitted to publish" clause, that two soldiers from the Golani Brigade, Battalion 13, were killed when a drone launched from Iraq exploded in a military base in the Golan.

An investigation by the Israeli army revealed that the attack involved two explosive-laden drones launched from Iraq. One drone was intercepted by air defenses, while the second struck an army base in the northern Golan Heights a few minutes later, as per the army.
