Iraqi armed group claims attack on occupied Golan Heights

The Islamic Resistance in Iraq, an umbrella group of Iran-backed armed groups, said it attacked a “vital target” in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights using drones. Israeli media reported sirens at the Kidmat Tsvi settlement in the occupied Golan Heights at the time of the attack.

The Islamic Resistance in Iraq has stepped up attacks targeting Israel as the Israeli military intensifies its assault on Gaza and Lebanon. The group has also launched rockets and drone attacks at US forces in Iraq and Syria as part of its campaign.


Iraqi armed group claims third attack on Israel

The Islamic Resistance in Iraq said it launched drone attacks on a “vital target” in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights and the Red Sea port city of Eilat. The statements marked the third time the Iran-backed group claimed attacks on Israel today.

Earlier, the group said it had attacked Israeli positions in the occupied Golan Heights. For its part, the Israeli military said it intercepted an “unmanned aircraft that made its way from the east”. It said the drone did not cross into Israeli territory.




Houthis hold exercises to drill defence against potential invasion

The Houthis in Yemen have held exercises to simulate defence against waves of attacks coming from land, sea and air.

The group’s armed forces released images from tactical military manoeuvres on Yemen’s western coasts, saying their moves continue to be “in support of the Palestinian and Lebanese peoples”.

Houthi soldiers trained for responding to “large-scale offensive operations launched by hostile forces through four virtual enemy offensive waves on Yemeni territory, with the full participation of enemy ships and naval warships” in different environments, the group said, adding that they also drilled defending a village against an aerial attack.
