BAGHDADkastkingsharky35000, Aug. 25 (Xinhua) -- The Islamic Resistance in Iraq, a Shiite militia group, announced on Sunday that it carried out a drone attack on a site in Haifa, northern Israel.
In a statement, the militia claimed its fighters targeted a "vital site" in Haifa early Sunday, stating the attack was made "in solidarity with the people of Gaza" and pledging to continue targeting "the enemy's strongholds." The statement did not specify details about the targeted site or any casualties.
Israeli authorities have yet to comment on the reported attack. Since the onset of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict on Oct. 7, 2023, the Islamic Resistance in Iraq has conducted several attacks on Israeli and U.S. targets in the region to demonstrate support for Palestinians in Gaza.■
