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.

Iranian Army Commander, Brigadier General Abdolrahim Mousavi, warned on Sunday that enemy drones are within the range of Iran’s Bavar 373 defense system.

Mousavi pointed out that the development of the highly advanced Bavar 373 defense system was a great achievement that required a combination of knowledge and complicated technology.

The army commander indicated that the hegemony of western media prevents Iran from showing its defensive achievements to the world, underlining that the Bavar 373 system is capable of targeting offensive drones at a range of 304 km.

The Brigadier General also congratulated the Iranian Air Defense Force and all companies and universities involved in developing the Bavar 373 system.

It is noteworthy that the system was first unveiled in August 2019. The range of its detection radar increased from 350 to 450 km, whereas its tracking range has risen from 260 to 400 km.

Iran's hypersonic ballistic missile able to reach 'Tel Aviv' in 4 mins

This comes as the Tehran Times news website reported on Friday that Iran's new hypersonic ballistic missile is able to reach "Tel Aviv" in less than four minutes.

Amir Ali Hajizadeh, the Aerospace Division chief of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), announced on Thursday that Iran has built a hypersonic ballistic missile that can penetrate advanced aerial defense shields and hit specific targets. 

The Tehran Times said the new hypersonic missile can fly at more than five times the speed of sound (at a rate of 3,800 mph), adding that it is more advanced than the Sejil missile.

While Sejil is able to reach "Tel Aviv" in less than seven minutes if launched from Natanz, according to the Iranian news website, the new hypersonic missile can reach the same destination in less than four minutes.

Hajizadeh told Tasnim news agency on Friday that the missile has been tested, adding that it will be unveiled "in the future and in a proper time."
