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.

    Defense Ministry Spokesperson Wu Qian warned Ottawa that Canada must refrain from provocations in international airspace

Provocations in the pacific increased earlier on Monday as the Chinese defense ministry warned the Canadian air force against threatening its national security as Ottawa ramps up intelligence activities in the region. 

The Chinese defense ministry spokesperson, Wu Qian, warned Canada that it must refrain from provocations in international airspace, which threatens global stability and personnel from both sides, otherwise they will be held accountable for their actions.

Qian had stated that the Canadian air forces have amplified intelligence undertakings and provocations against China during the Canadian air forces' NEON mission, under the pretext of monitoring possible violations of UN Security Council resolutions on North Korea.

"Recently, the Canadian air forces aircraft have stepped up intelligence activities and provocations against China under the pretext of implementing UNSC resolutions, which poses a threat to China's national security and also endangers the personnel of both sides, the Chinese side strongly opposes this," Qian said in a statement. 

Earlier, the Canadian armed forces accused the Chinese People's Liberation Army Air Force of "unethical and threatening" behavior during the most recent encounters in international airspace. 

This statement comes a day after Australia made public an interception of one of their aircraft by the Chinese air force in contested airspace over the South China Sea. According to the defense statement, the Royal Australian Air Force P-8 maritime surveillance aircraft was conducting a "routine maritime surveillance activity" in international airspace in the region on May 26 and was intercepted by a Chinese J-16 fighter.
