Iraqi Resistance Attack Four Military Targets In Israel (Videos)

The Islamic Resistance in Iraq (IRI), an umbrella group of Iran-backed armed factions, carried out four attacks against military targets in Israel on November 6 and 7.

In separate statements, the group said it launched suicide drones at military targets in the occupied Syrian Golan Heights, the Jordan Valley and in the south of Israel, without providing any further details.

The attacks were carried out “in response to the massacres committed by the usurping entity [Israel] against civilians, including children, women, and the elderly” in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon, the group said, vowing that “operations against enemy strongholds will continue at an increasing pace.”

Video footage released by the group showed the launch of what appears to be four Iranian-made Shahed-101 suicide drones. This type is said to have a range of 900 kilometers and a cruising speed of 120 kilometers per hour with a warhead weighing eight kilograms.

On November 6, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) announced that a drone launched at Israel from “the east,” the code for Iraq, was intercepted. The drone was shot down by the Israeli Air Force before entering Israeli airspace, according to the military.

The IDF didn’t report the interception of any other drone from Iraq on November 6 or 7. However, there were reports of warning sirens going off in different parts of the country.

The IRI began carrying out attacks against Israel as well as against United States forces in Iraq and neighboring Syria last October in response to the Israeli all-out war on Gaza.

In September, the group escalated its attacks against Israel in response to Israel’s ongoing aerial campaign and ground operations against Hezbollah in Lebanon.

The IRI’s attacks are becoming more and more effective, with Hebrew media acknowledging damage and casualties more than once over the last few weeks. Recent reports suggest that the IDF may be planning a direct attack against Iraq in response.
