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.

Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi stressed on Tuesday the need to commence the reconstruction process in Gaza, rejecting the forced displacement of its residents despite Donald Trump's threats of cutting off aid to Egypt and Jordan if they refused to take in Palestinians. 

During a phone call with Denmark's Prime Minister, Mette Frederiksen, el-Sisi focused on reconstruction to make the Gaza Strip inhabitable, affirming the "preservation of the Palestinians' rights and their ability to live on their land." 

Meanwhile, Donald Trump is set to meet with Jordan’s King Abdullah on Tuesday in what is expected to be a tense encounter, following the US president's controversial proposal for the displacement of Gaza's people and his threat to cut aid to Jordan if it refuses to host Palestinians displaced from the enclave.

Trump’s proposal, floated a week ago, suggested that the US "take over" Gaza, expel its residents, and transform the territory into the "Riviera of the Middle East," in a plan that has been met with strong opposition from the Arab world.

King Abdullah has firmly opposed any efforts to "annex" land or forcibly displace Palestinians. During Tuesday’s meeting, he is expected to warn Trump that such actions could fuel radicalism, destabilize the region, and endanger Jordan’s 1994 normalization agreement with "Israel", Reuters suggested.

Trump, meanwhile, has grown increasingly impatient with Arab leaders who reject the idea.

When pressed on whether he would withhold aid from Jordan and Egypt if they refused, Trump responded, "Yeah, maybe, sure, why not... if they don't agree, I would conceivably withhold aid."
