Iran-backed Islamic Resistance in Iraq attacks southern Israeli border city of Eilat in response to the attack on military base in IraqEgyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry urged both Iran and Israel to exercise restraint amid high tensions in the Middle East. Iraq's Popular Mobilisation Forces later said its command post at Kalso military base about 50 km south of Baghdad was hit by a huge explosion, and two security sources said it resulted from an air strike.
