In support of Palestine

This comes after the Alwiyat al-Waad al-Haq (True Promise Brigades) who identify themselves as the "sons of the Arabian Peninsula" affirmed that "patience has limits in the face of what we are witnessing today against the Palestinian people," declaring that the group considers US bases in Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates "legitimate targets."

On the same note, the Iraqi Resistance announced earlier on Monday that it had targeted two US military occupation bases in Syria, the al-Omar Oilfield in Deir Ezzor, and the al-Shadadi base in the al-Hasakah countryside, eastern Syria.

According to the official statement, the bases were successfully hit with suicide drones noting "direct hits".

It is worth noting that this is not the first time the Iraqi Resistance has targeted US bases. Earlier on Wednesday, the Islamic Resistance in Iraq claimed responsibility for the attack on the US occupation's al-Tanf base in Syria and other US occupation bases near al-Rukban camp.

The Resistance group revealed that the offensives were carried out with drones that caused severe damage after they directly hit their targets. It also announced that its fighters conducted a drone strike on the US occupation's al-Malikiyah base in Syria.
