BREAKING
Sheikh Qassem: Resistance is a source of power for Lebanon that must be preserved.
Sheikh Qassem: "Israel" must implement the agreement as Lebanon has already done so, and any new accord would amount to absolving it and opening the door to further attacks.
Sheikh Qassem: We do not wish to assume anyone's role; those accusing us of this must cease their accusations.
Sheikh Qassem: We will recover our lands through national solidarity; Resistance's goal is national liberation, while enemy goal is occupation.
Sheikh Qassem: Protection of sovereignty protects Lebanon. It is in real danger because of US belligerence, greedy Israeli expansion.
Qassem to Lebanese people: We are not asking for support but for us not to be stabbed in the back in the back or for some to serve Israeli interests; government is primary party responsible for [preservation of] sovereignty.
Sheikh Qassem: "Israel" can occupy, but it cannot persist in occupation of our land.
Sheikh Qassem: Intimidation will not change our stance of resistance and steadfastness. We are not advocates of surrender or defeat, and we will never accept it.
Sheikh Qassem: Where does US stand regarding enemy's unjustified assassination of a government worker and other civilian martyrs?
Sheikh Qassem: Is the Lebanese Army's defense of its land and citizens an accusation [leveled against it]? Where does US stand regarding the enemy's killing of civilians and constant destruction?

Israeli media reported that during a phone call, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken rebuked Israeli occupation Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

In an interview for "Israel" Hayom, Israeli political analyst Ariel Kahana said according to the Americans, "Israel" establishing a permanent presence in the illegal "Homesh" settlement, north of the occupied West Bank, opposes a promise made by the Israeli government as it was formed.

"Israel" Hayom reported that it is apparent from the statement of the US State Department that Blinken reprimanded Netanyahu for breaking promises.

The US State Department statement read that Blinken "discussed the need to uphold the commitments made at regional meetings in Aqaba and Sharm El-Sheikh to avoid measures that undermine the prospects for a two-state solution," referring to talks earlier this year in Jordan and Egypt that brought Israeli, Palestinian Authority, and US officials together.

The Israeli newspaper mentioned that Americans claim that "Israel" establishing a permanent presence in the illegal "Homesh" settlement contradicts a pledge not to establish new settlements beyond the nine settlements that were approved by the Israeli occupation government.

It is worth noting that the illegal "Homesh" settlement was created as an Israeli military post on usurped private Palestinian land in 1978 and handed over to illegal Israeli settlers in 1980. It was later evacuated as part of then-Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's "disengagement plan" in 2005.

Under international law, all Israeli settlements are illegal, and the United Nations Security Council has condemned Israeli settlement activities in the occupied territories in several resolutions.

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said in late February that Israeli-built settlements are "illegal" and they "must stop".
