The Middle East conflict is escalating as Iranian-aligned forces intensify attacks on U.S. and Israeli targets. The Islamic Resistance in Iraq has released dramatic footage claiming a cruise missile strike on a U.S. “occupation base,” showing missiles tearing through the night sky in a coordinated assault. While the exact base remains unidentified and the United States has not confirmed the strike, Tehran’s network of allied militias — the so-called “Axis of Resistance” — is increasingly carrying out multi-front operations, signalling a dangerous new phase in the ongoing war.
