TEHRAN, Jan. 06 (MNA) – In a statement issued early Saturday, the Islamic Resistance in Iraq announced that it has targeted two US military bases inside Syria.

The Iraqi Resistance group targeted the US military bases in Syria's al-Tanf and al-Shaddadi regions.

On Friday, In the first military action in revenge for the martyrdom of this group's deputy at the hands of CENTCOM terrorists, the al-Nujaba movement targeted 4 US military bases in Iraq and Syria.

In the first field response to the assassination of the military vice-president of this movement, the Islamic Nujaba Movement hit the bases where the American invaders were stationed in Iraq and Syria.

"Al-Rukban" garrison and the base adjacent to the "Al-Omar" oil facilities in Syria, "Al-Tanf" base in the border triangle of Iraq, Syria, Jordan and "Harir" base in the Kurdistan region of Iraq are the four American bases that were attacked by al-Nujaba.

Iraqi Resistance groups have conducted similar attacks against US positions in Iraq and neighboring Syria ever since the Israeli regime began its war against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

The groups say their attacks are in retaliation for America’s support of the Israeli regime’s crimes against people in Gaza.  

After the martyrdom of Resistance commanders who led the anti-terrorism fight in Iraq and Syria, the Iraqi parliament approved a piece of legislation to call for the withdrawal of American troops from the country, a demand that the US troops have yet to meet.
