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.

Mohamed Charfi, Chairman of the Independent National Authority for Elections (ANIE), reported Saturday evening that the average turnout in the legislative elections reached 30.20 percent statewide.

Giving effect to policy in legislation, the results of the elections should be announced within 96 hours, according to Charfi, who added that the counting procedure will be "complicated" compared to previous elections.

The polling process in the Algerian legislative elections, which started on Saturday morning, ended after the president of the Independent Authority, at the request of the coordinator of the provincial delegation, pushed the closing hours of the polling stations until 8:00 p.m (Algeria’s Time).

Before the end of the voting, Al-Mayadeen’s reporter stated that the turnout at the polling stations improved in the last hours with the temperature dropping. As the voter turnout in the legislative elections has reached 7% in the first hours of voting, which is a considered a weak percentage, according to ANIE.

Tebboune went on to say that another date will be set for Municipal elections in Algeria.

These elections are considered the first since the popular movement that rose up in Algeria in 2019 to oppose former Algerian President Abdelaziz Bouteflika’s bid to run for a fifth term. After weeks of protests, Bouteflika's office announced that he has ended his 20-year rule.
