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.

A 10-year-old disabled Palestinian child, Ahmad Mohammad al-Samar, was martyred today after his father was blocked, by Israeli occupation forces, from reaching a hospital that would have provided Ahmad with the life-saving treatment.

Ahmad's father, from the town of al-Yamoun to the west of Jenin, was seen rushing on foot to the Jenin Government Hospital, as he attempted to reach the medical facility while Israeli occupation forces blocked vehicles from entering its vicinity.

This development comes as Israeli occupation forces launch a wide-scale aggression on Jenin and the Jenin refugee camp, which has seen occupation soldiers besiege several hospitals and hurdle the work of emergency services.

Although the occupation's military announced the commencement of its aggression on Jenin on Tuesday afternoon, occupation forces had begun raiding the Jenin refugee camp at 3:30 AM (local time).

An informed source told Al Mayadeen that this is the largest incursion into the northern West Bank city since a previous aggression early in July 2023. The incursion comes in the context of a broader Israeli policy aimed at silencing and oppressing Palestinians outside the Gaza Strip. In fact, occupation forces have committed nearly daily raids on cities and towns of the West Bank since October 7, aiming to suppress any support to the Gaza Strip. The occupation has arbitrarily detained thousands of Palestinians, executed multiple individuals, including children, and raided hundreds of homes in the occupied West Bank. 

On the other hand, the Palestinian Resistance has risen up on every possible occasion, confronting occupation forces all over the West Bank, including Jenin. On Tuesday, footage emerging from the city showed an Israeli military jeep that had reportedly been severely damaged by an improvised explosive device (IED). Footage was then circulated, depicting an armored bulldozer pulling the damaged vehicle from the scene.
