Iraqi Resistance Denies Responsibility for Drone Attacks on Saudi Arabia
The Iraqi Islamic Resistance has rejected Saudi Arabia's claims that drones used in attacks on the Kingdom were launched from Iraqi territory.
In a statement issued on July 27, 2026, the group denied the accusations and warned that any military action by Riyadh would be met with a 'harsh response.'
The Islamic Resistance stated that the claims are an attempt to deflect attention from Yemen's military operations against Saudi infrastructure.
Saudi Arabia's Ministry of Defense announced earlier on July 27, 2026, that its air defenses intercepted and destroyed several drones targeting oil facilities in the Eastern Province and Riyadh.
