BREAKING
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.
Sheikh Qassem: The government’s latest decision [on the disarmament of the Resistance] is non-charter-based, and if the government continues down this path, it is not faithful to Lebanon’s sovereignty.

  • Occupied territories severly damaged due to Palestinian resistance shelling.

Israeli Haaretz newspaper said that the Israeli Home Front Command commander Ori Gordin recommended Tuesday strengthening the iron windows in the fortified rooms in the Gaza envelope, increasing their thickness to 32 mm. According to a new intelligence report, it is expected that the capabilities of the weapons of the Palestinian organizations and factions are expected to develop, based on the lessons taught during the so-called operation "Guardians of the Wall".

Gordin clarified that the occupation's Home Front Command would draw up the map of homes facing the Gaza Strip and would determine which houses are under threat and need their fortified rooms' iron windows strengthened.

Gordin also noted that the government funds the fortified rooms that are in the settlements of the Gaza envelope, and it will have to decide whether or not it could afford to strengthen the windows.

Republican US Senator Lindsey Graham announced that "Israel" would request $1 billion in emergency military aid from the United States to replenish the Israeli army's ammunition stockpile following the aggression on Gaza.

According to Walla, Israeli officials confirmed Graham's words, saying that "Israel" needs aid to replenish its stockpile of bunker-buster missiles and precision-guided missiles for aircraft and replenish their stockpile of Iron Dome interceptor missiles.

The site also indicated that occupation Security Minister Benny Gantz would raise the topic of emergency military aid during his meeting with his US counterpart Secretary Loyd Austin and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan. He will also raise the topic of the JCPOA, the ceasefire with Gaza, rebuilding the Strip, and the situation in Syria and Lebanon.

According to Walla, the Israeli military aid request comes in light of several Democrat congressmen asking to review parts of the arm deals with "Israel" against the backdrop of harming the innocent people in Gaza.

The Joe Biden Administration had approved a $735 million arms sale to "Israel" in the wake of the war on Gaza, the bulk of the deal being "Joint Direct Attack Munitions," which are groups that convert the so-called unguided bombs into precision-guided missiles.
