Iraqi resistance forces strike Zionist targets across Israel, monitor reports IDF killed them in Syria
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] The Islamic Resistance in Iraq kept up its strikes targeting Israeli targets in support of Gaza and Lebanon against the Zionist aggression.

The Iraqi resistance group announced on Monday a drone strike that was carried out against a vital target in Jordan Valley.

''The fighters of the Islamic Resistance in Iraq on Monday 14-10-2024, attacked a vital target in the Jordan Valley in our occupied lands using drones,'' the group said in a statement.

Drones from Iran-backed Iraqi group intercepted near Golan: Monitor

[Rudaw] Two Islamic Resistance in Iraq drones were intercepted by Israeli defense systems near the Golan Heights, a war monitor said on Monday, adding they entered Syrian airspace from Iraq.

"The Israeli air defences intercepted two drones belonging to the 'Islamic Resistance in Iraq' over the villages of al-Shajarah, and al-Qusayr area in al-Yarmouk Basin..." the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reported.

The area near the Golan Heights, amid the protracted Israel-Gaza war, has become a regular attack vector against Israel for Iran-backed groups like the Islamic Resistance in Iraq.

The Observatory added that the drones "entered from Syrian airspace coming from Iraq" and forces from the US-led international coalition against the Islamic State (ISIS) "were unable to intercept them" near the al-Tanf garrison at the trilateral border with Syria and Jordan.

On Sunday, an Islamic Resistance in Iraq drone launched from the "Syrian desert" attacked Israeli forces near the Golan Heights, reported SOHR which relies on a network of sources on the ground. It added that the forces in At-Tanf also "failed to block it."

The drone attacks come amid increased conflict between US-allied Israel and pro-Iran groups, primarily Hamas in Palestine and Hezbollah in Lebanon and Syria.
