The Islamic Resistance in Iraq yesterday claimed responsibility for a drone attack on a “vital site” in northern Israel’s port city of Haifa a day earlier.

The attack was executed on Tuesday evening “in support of our people in Gaza, and in response to the massacres committed by the usurping entity [Israel] against Palestinian civilians, including children, women and the elderly,” the group said in a statement, pledging to continue targeting “the enemy’s strongholds”.

Israel has not commented on the group’s claim.
