The Iran-backed Islamic Resistance in Iraq takes responsibility for the drone attack on Eilat.
The group claims to have launched drones at a “vital target” in Israel’s southernmost city.
One drone was intercepted by a Navy warship, while the second struck Eilat’s port, injuring a 68-year-old and a 28-year-old.
Both men are listed in good condition and did not require hospitalization, Magen David Adom says.
