The Islamic Resistance in Iraq says it has conducted 27 separate operations against US bases across Iraq and the broader region within a 24-hour period.

In a series of statements released via official channels, the umbrella group of resistance factions reported that the wave of attacks involved the deployment of dozens of missiles and long-range drones.

The group characterized the operations as a direct response to the presence of occupation forces in West Asia.

The most recent strikes occurred at dawn on Thursday, when the group reportedly utilized an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to hit a "vital target" in Jordan.

Shortly thereafter, a separate drone strike was claimed against a similar target in Duhok, located in the Kurdistan region of northern Iraq.
