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.

Tropical Storm Idalia emerged in the Caribbean and affected southeastern Mexico with wind and rainfall. Reports anticipated that the storm could intensify into a hurricane before approaching Florida later in the week. While it's projected to avoid directly hitting Mexico, the storm is expected to traverse the Gulf of Mexico and is anticipated to make landfall in northwest Florida.

The US National Hurricane Center (NHC) cautioned about the growing threat of life-threatening storm surges and hurricane-level winds along Florida's west coast and Panhandle, starting as soon as Tuesday.

The NHC indicated a wide range of potential intensity for Idalia, with forecasts ranging from a weak hurricane to a major one before it reaches the northeast Gulf coast. According to NHC predictions, Idalia should reach Florida's shores by 7:00 am Wednesday, as shown in their projected path map.

The NHC also issued storm surge and hurricane watches for various sections of Florida's coastline, cautioning against flash flooding.

Furthermore, substantial rainfall is anticipated in parts of Mexico's eastern Yucatan and western Cuba.
