A Shiite resistance movement fighting the Islamic State terrorist organization in Iraq says it has formed a brigade to liberate the Golan Heights from Israeli occupation.

Hezbollah al-Nujaba spokesperson Seyed Hashem al-Moussavi announced the establishment of the Golan Liberation Brigade on Wednesday, after what he called recent victories, quoted by the Iranian Fars News Agency. If the Syrian government requests, we are ready to take action to liberate Golan, he told FNA.

The groups leader, Sheikh Akram al-Kaabi said last month the presence of Hezbollah al-Nujaba in Syria was aimed at resisting the plot of the Islamic State (ISIS / Daesh) terrorist organization, which he claimed was implementing an Israeli-initiated road map under the supervision of the U.S., with the cooperation of Turkey and Arab states of the Persian Gulf in the region, according to Fars.

U.S. troops have been fighting alongside Iraqi soldiers and members of the Kurdish security forces and Shiite militia members to oust the Islamic State terrorist group from its stronghold in Mosul. A radical Shiite cleric called Moqtada al Sadr has called for American troops to leave Iraq, Fox News reported.
