The group confirmed the attack as part of the second phase of Resistance operations against the occupation, supporting the people of Gaza in response to what they describe as "Zionist massacres against innocent Palestinian civilians."

The Resistance reported multiple drone strikes on the occupied city of Eilat over the past few days. The occupation army confirmed detecting several drones approaching from the east and south.

On May 16, the Islamic Resistance in Iraq targeted a strategic site in Umm al-Rashrash (Eilat) using drones. Additionally, the group claimed responsibility for a drone attack on the Haifa Oil Refinery on Thursday morning.

Earlier, on Wednesday, May 15, the Islamic Resistance in Iraq launched attacks on critical targets in the occupied Palestinian territories, including Wadi Areeha and the Nevatim airbase, located east of occupied Beer al-Sabe'.

These attacks mark an escalation in the Resistance's operations, highlighting ongoing tensions and the continued conflict in the region. (ILKHA)
