BREAKING
Russian Ministry of Defense: 37 Ukrainian drones destroyed in 4 hours over regions of Russia and the Black Sea.
Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.

The leaders of more than 100 countries, which hold more than 85 percent of the world's forests, will sign the Glasgow Leaders' Declaration on Forest and Land Use at the 26th UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP26) in Glasgow on Tuesday, according to the UK Prime Minister's office.

The United Kingdom's Prime Minister will host a COP26 Forests and Land Use event at the COP26 summit, which is being held from October 31 to November 12 to bring parties together to accelerate action toward the goals of the Paris Agreement and the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change.

“In the biggest step forward in protecting the world's forests in a generation, more than 100 leaders will commit to halt and reverse forest loss and land degradation by 2030 at an event convened by the Prime Minister at COP26 today. The pledge is backed by almost $19.2 billion in public and private funding,” the press release added.

According to the press release, halting and reversing deforestation is "one of the most important things the world can do to limit catastrophic global warming," adding that "23 percent of global emissions come from land-use activity, such as logging, deforestation, and farming."

Key Players in COP26

The different interests of the 197 members of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change make establishing a consensus on the next actions to combat global warming a difficult task. Here are some of the major players in the COP26.
