The umbrella group Islamic Resistance in Iraq said that it launched an “advanced cruise missile” at the Israeli city of Haifa. A long-range missile called al-Arqab was used to attack a “vital target in occupied Haifa” on an unspecified date, it said in a statement. There were no reports of anything being hit. The attack was in support of Palestinians and a response to “massacres” committed by Israel. The statement was accompanied by a short video showing the night-time launch of the missile.
