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.

The Lebanese Ministry of Health announced in its daily report on Sunday that the toll from the Israeli aggression on Lebanon has risen to 2,986 martyrs and 13,402 wounded. These figures are non-final as the aggression continues unabated.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent in South Lebanon reported on Sunday evening that Israeli warplanes conducted a drone strike on Marj Harouf and Arab Salim in the Nabatieh district. Additionally, airstrikes were carried out targeting the city of Nabatieh as well.

Prior to that, an Israeli drone executed a guided missile strike targeting a car near a Lebanese army checkpoint in the town of Bait Yahoun, in the Bint Jbeil district. A drone also targeted a house in the town of Shaqra within the same district.

Israeli aggression continues across South Lebanon 

On Sunday afternoon, Israeli warplanes renewed their airstrikes, targeting the area around the Government Hospital in the town of Tebnin in the Bint Jbeil district for the third time.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent in South Lebanon reported that five martyrs, including two children, were recovered from under the targeted building in the Wata al-Khiam area. Efforts to clear the rubble, which requires heavy machinery, are still ongoing.

The Lebanese Red Cross plans to pursue to recover the remaining bodies from Wata al-Khiam tomorrow. This operation is complicated by difficult weather conditions and the need for heavy equipment, as there are still 16 bodies trapped under the rubble.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that upon arriving in the Wata al-Khiam area, it became evident that "there were no longer any Israeli soldiers present there."

Israeli warplanes conducted a raid on the town of Zawtar al-Sharqiya in the Nabatieh district, along with additional strikes on the towns of Siddiqin, Rashknanay, Dhour al-Bayadh, Haris, Burj al-Shamali, and al-Bazouriyeh. They also targeted an area between Qana and Ramadiyeh. Meanwhile, an Israeli drone launched an attack on a park in Tyre City, near the Tyre Rest House.

In parallel, Al Mayadeen's camera captured the destruction wrought by the Israeli aggression on Haret Saida, located in Southern Lebanon.

Additionally, a fourth raid targeted the al-Lakkis family neighborhood inside the city of Baalbek.

The Israeli air force also carried out a series of raids in the west, center, and south of the city of Baalbek in eastern Lebanon.

Al Mayadeen's camera captured the destruction resulting from the recent Israeli aggression in the Ras al-Ayn area in central Baalbek, as well as the damage inflicted by the Israeli raids on the Douris neighborhood to the south of Baalbek.
