BREAKING
Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Lebanon: Israeli occupation forces carried out an explosion in the southern border town of Kfar Kila
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.

US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen expressed concern on Thursday over China's intentions to end the war in Ukraine due to its 'no-limits' ties with Russia - calling it a "worrisome sign".

"China's 'no limits' partnership and support for Russia is a worrisome indication that it is not serious about ending the war," Yellen stated, stressing that not providing Russia with any type of support or evading sanctions is crucial, as is enforcing consequences for committing violations.

The secretary added that the US would demonstrate its "extremely clear" stance to China and firms within its jurisdiction.

This comes a mere four days after Yellen said that the US economic sanctions imposed on Russia and other nations have put the dollar's hegemony at risk as targeted countries seek out an alternative, adding that these sanctions definitely "create a desire on the part of China, of Russia, of Iran to find an alternative."

Back in February, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said in a statement that China would never accept that US "finger-pointing" target China-Russia relations and called on Washington to work toward a political settlement of the Ukraine crisis instead of deteriorating the situation.

The United States, as a significant power, should "work for a political settlement of the [Ukraine] crisis instead of fanning the flames or profiteering from the situation", the statement read. 

In a meeting last month between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese Defense Minister Li Shangfu, Li said: "Cooperation between Russia and China in military and technical areas has been developing very well recently. It makes a great contribution to security, [both] global and regional."

He added that "We are standing shoulder to shoulder and working to improve the well-being of our peoples. Considering that economic recovery is very slow, and the world is very turbulent, there is a great need for peace, peaceful relations between countries."
