BREAKING
Sheikh Qassem: Resistance is a source of power for Lebanon that must be preserved.
Sheikh Qassem: "Israel" must implement the agreement as Lebanon has already done so, and any new accord would amount to absolving it and opening the door to further attacks.
Sheikh Qassem: We do not wish to assume anyone's role; those accusing us of this must cease their accusations.
Sheikh Qassem: We will recover our lands through national solidarity; Resistance's goal is national liberation, while enemy goal is occupation.
Sheikh Qassem: Protection of sovereignty protects Lebanon. It is in real danger because of US belligerence, greedy Israeli expansion.
Qassem to Lebanese people: We are not asking for support but for us not to be stabbed in the back in the back or for some to serve Israeli interests; government is primary party responsible for [preservation of] sovereignty.
Sheikh Qassem: "Israel" can occupy, but it cannot persist in occupation of our land.
Sheikh Qassem: Intimidation will not change our stance of resistance and steadfastness. We are not advocates of surrender or defeat, and we will never accept it.
Sheikh Qassem: Where does US stand regarding enemy's unjustified assassination of a government worker and other civilian martyrs?
Sheikh Qassem: Is the Lebanese Army's defense of its land and citizens an accusation [leveled against it]? Where does US stand regarding the enemy's killing of civilians and constant destruction?

Hamas politburo member Osama Hamdan said that the Palestinian people remain patient despite the occupation's massacres and revealed that Israeli captives will not be released except under the conditions of the resistance. 

Hamdan called on the UN under-secretary-general for humanitarian affairs and emergency relief coordinator in Gaza to overcome American pressure and ensure that aid is delivered to the strip.

Addressing the people of Palestine in a press conference on Wednesday, Hamdan commended all the heroes of Gaza in a "blessed message to our people, the men of Al-Qassam Brigades, the Al-Quds Brigades, and all the heroes in Gaza."

Touching on the Israeli crimes in Gaza, Hamdan detailed that the Israeli occupation, who he referred to as Nazis, have not left a single crime not committed against women and children, recalling their destruction of hospitals and schools.

"Our people in the Gaza Strip are facing death, and the situation is catastrophic, and whoever did not die from the bombing died from hunger and disease," he stressed.

He expressed the hope that the newly appointed UN under-secretary-general for humanitarian affairs and emergency relief coordinator in Gaza, Sigrid Kaag, would be able to overcome pressure from "Israel" and the US and ensure the delivery of aid to Gaza.

He also stressed that the occupation is yet to achieve any goals in its ruthless 3-month onslaught against the people of Gaza, adding that his captives would not be returned unless under the conditions of the resistance, welcoming any "Arab or Islamic initiative that stops the Israeli aggression."

Hamdan pointed out that “the American administration continues all forms of support for the Zionist enemy,” and “it does so to serve it, which makes it its partner.” 

The Hamas leader also appreciated the position of the State of South Africa for submitting its case against the Israeli occupation and called on the International Court of Justice (ICJ) not to submit to American pressure as well. 

Hamdan: Our land will only be Palestinian, for the Palestinian people

On Sunday, Hamdan confirmed that the assassination of martyr Sheikh Saleh al-Arouri will not change or alter the Resistance's convictions, vowing that revenge from the Israeli occupation entity for its crime is definitely coming.

"The enemy will face a response from us that will teach it that the assassination will not weaken the Resistance," Hamdan said in a televised address.

However, he stressed that the greater revenge that the Resistance will take is the liberation of occupied al-Quds, ending the occupation, and the return of Palestinians to their land.

"The ones who will leave the land of Palestine and go back to where they came from will be the occupying settlers," Hamdan stressed.

"Our land will only be Palestinian, for the Palestinian people."
