The Islamic Resistance in Iraq says it has stricken a target in the city of Umm Rashrash, also known as Eilat, in the southern part of Occupied Palestine in retaliation for Israel’s genocidal war in the besieged Gaza Strip.

Ansarullah's attacks reportedly cripple operations at the port of Eilat at the southern tip of the occupied Palestinian territories.

A senior Ansarullah official says Yemeni retaliatory operations will expand to hit depths of the Israeli-occupied territories if the Israeli genocidal war on the Gaza Strip does not stop.
