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.

Iran's Arabic-language television network Al Alam reported on Friday that the Iranian Foreign Ministry summoned the Danish ambassador in Tehran over the recent attempted knife attack on the Iranian ambassador in Copenhagen.

On the other hand, the Danish ambassador to Iran apologized today, stressing that "security measures will be strengthened after this incident."

Last Friday, the Danish police arrested a 32-year-old man after he entered the premises of the Iranian embassy in Copenhagen while carrying a knife, according to reports.

Prior to the police's arrival, the man threatened the embassy's staff and damaged their vehicles in the parking lot.

"Unfortunately, despite the previous official warnings, the Danish police arrived at the embassy with delay," said Tehran's ambassador to Denmark, Afsaneh Nadipour.

Following the incident, Iran's Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian, while on a phone call with Nadipoor, criticized the Danish police over its lax security standards around Tehran's Embassy, and he summoned the Danish Danish ambassador in Tehran for clarifications over the incidents.

Iran-phobia has been on the rise since western media violently dehumanized Iran's reputation after accusing it of an incident it wasn't responsible for: the death of Mahsa Amini. 

The manipulation of human rights in Western media has long been used to push for an agenda of regime change, and the demonization of Iran is built on narratives of human rights violations.

On October 2nd, a spokesperson for the Iranian Parliament Nizamuddin Mousavi said that some 45,000 people from foreign organizations, intelligence services, and terrorist groups formed networks across the country, some of whom have been arrested.

On October 3rd, the leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Sayyed Ali Khamenei,  accused the US and 'Israel' of planning and standing behind the riots. “I say explicitly that these riots and this insecurity were a design by the US and the occupying, fake Zionist regime [Israel] and those who are paid by them, and some traitorous Iranians abroad helped them,” Khamenei told the graduating cadets at a police university in Tehran.

Meanwhile, Iran is pushing ahead to further its diplomatic ties with regional powers as President Ebrahim Raisi stated on Tuesday that Iran is ready to use its diverse and effective capacities to solve regional and global issues.
