Iranian-backed militias in Iraq have threatened to attack U.S. facilities there because of American support for Israel.
The Islamic Resistance in Iraq, an umbrella group of Iranian-backed militias, issued a statement afterward claiming responsibility for the two attacks and saying it “heralds more operations” against the “American occupation.”
But Iranian-backed militias in Iraq have also threatened to attack U.S. facilities over American support for Israel. “These evil people must leave the country. Otherwise, they will taste the fire of hell in this world before the afterlife,” the statement said. The government of the semi-autonomous Kurdish region in northern Iraq said an intercepted drone crashed in an open area near the village of Batas.
“Geographically, obviously, they are several steps removed, so they’re not going to be the first to react” and are likely to serve in a supporting role, she said.
