BREAKING
Russian Ministry of Defense: 37 Ukrainian drones destroyed in 4 hours over regions of Russia and the Black Sea.
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.

  • China's newly formed Central Committee includes 11 women
    The previous 204-member committee had only 10 women or 4.9% 

Eleven women have secured seats in the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC), according to the official list of newly-appointed members.  

The new committee of the party includes 205 members, with women making up only 5.36% of the total.

The previous 204-member committee had only 10 women or 4.9%.  

Over the past years, women in China have been gaining a much more prominent role in the country's cultural, social, and economic spheres, but the political scene is still largely dominated by men.

China's Congress is one of the most important events in China's political life, during which the results of the last five years are summed up and the plans for the country's future are drawn up.

It is held once every five years and concluded with amendments to the party's constitution bolstering the CCP's ranks and guiding the role of the party's ideology.

This comes around a month after unconfirmed media reports suggested that the People's Liberation Army was plotting a coup in Beijing aimed at toppling the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party during the Golden Week of public holidays that comes ahead of China's National Day on October 1.

There was no notable or visible police presence in Beijing at that time, a Sputnik reporter said amid reports and rumors on social media suggesting that a coup plot was taking place in China.

The reports come days after Chinese President Xi Jinping praised the Chinese armed forces, urging for the better use of successful experience in the reform of national defense and the armed forces and striving for new horizons for strengthening the armed forces through reform.

Xi also urged high-ranking representatives of China’s Central Military Commission (CMC), the People’s Armed Police Force, and military academics to mobilize efforts into implementing reform tasks and manage future reforms to provide a strong impetus for achieving the goal set for the centenary of the People's Liberation Army.
