BAGHDAD, May 5 (Xinhua) -- A Shiite militia in Iraq on Sunday claimed responsibility for an attack with a cruise missile on Haifa Port in Israel.
The militia, known as the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, said in an online statement that its fighters launched an attack on Saturday afternoon with a long-range al-Arqab upgraded cruise missile on Haifa Port in northern Israel.
The statement provided no additional details about the specific location targeted or any resulting casualties.
It stressed that the attacks were carried out "in solidarity with the people of Gaza," and the militia pledged to persist in targeting "the enemy's strongholds."
Since the outbreak of the Gaza conflict on Oct. 7, 2023, the Islamic Resistance in Iraq has launched multiple attacks on Israeli and U.S. bases in the region. Enditem
