Issuing a statement, the Iraqi Resistance group said that the anti-Zionist operations were carried out on a vital target in Ashkelon settlement, Ashkelon port, and another region in occupied Palestine.

The attack was conducted in response to the Israeli regime's unprecedented crimes against the Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip, according to the Resistance group.

Since the start of the al-Aqsa Storm operation on the 7th of last October, the occupied port of Eilat has been targeted several times by the Yemeni forces and the Islamic Resistance of Iraq to declare support for the oppressed people of Gaza.

Israel waged its brutal war on besieged Gaza on October 7 after Hamas carried out an unprecedented operation against the occupying entity in retaliation for its intensified atrocities against the Palestinian people.

Israel has imposed a complete siege on the densely populated territory, cutting off fuel, electricity, food, and water to the more than two million Palestinians living there.
