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.

Palestinian Resistance factions conducted a series of operations targeting Israeli occupation forces across the Gaza Strip on the 309th day of the war on Gaza. 

Hamas' al-Qassam Brigades launched a salvo of 107 mm rocket artillery shells at positions of invading Israeli occupation forces to the east of Khan Younis at 6:02 pm (local time) on Saturday. Al-Qassam said the rockets resulted in a fire breaking out in the targeted area. 

In the southernmost city of the Gaza Strip, Rafah, the al-Qassam fighters fired a locally-produced tandem rocket-propelled grenade (RPG), al-Yassin, at an Israeli military-grade D9 bulldozer. 

Its forces also fiercely engaged occupation forces in the Tal al-Sultan neighborhood in western Rafah. 

On Saturday, Israeli occupation forces garrisoned themselves in the Indonesian Hospital in the same neighborhood, where al-Qassam Resistance fighters fired an anti-personnel RPG and a thermobaric RPG at the Israeli force. Israeli military rescue helicopters landed in the area to evacuate the killed and wounded soldiers.

Al-Qassam fighters also sniped at an Israeli soldier in the village of al-Soweida to the southwest of Tal al-Sultan.

Other Palestinian Resistance factions participated in attacks on Israeli occupation forces, including the al-Mujahideen Brigades and the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades. 

The al-Mujahideen Brigades fired two Haseb-111 rockets at the strategic Netzarim Axis, targeting Israeli forces occupying an area splitting the northern Gaza Strip from the rest of the besieged territory. 

The al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades shelled the Israeli occupation armored and infantry forces in the Yibna refugee camp in Rafah with 60mm mortar rounds.

The attack resulted in several casualties among the force, confirmed by the arrival of an Israeli rescue helicopter to transport the killed and wounded soldiers.
