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.

The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah announced on Friday that it launched several rockets toward the Zebdin site in the occupied Lebanese Shebaa Farms, as well as the al-Malikiyah and Bayad Blida sites.

The Resistance also announced that it targeted reconnaissance equipment in the Ramtha and Malikiyah military sites, destroying the equipment in the process.

The Resistance's fighters also attacked a Merkava tank at the Baghdadi site in northern occupied Palestine, which led to its destruction.

The Resistance, in the respective statements for each of the operations, announced that the attacks on the Israeli occupation forces were in support of the steadfast Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and its Resistance.

Israeli media outlets reported that one ATGM was fired toward an Israeli military site in the al-Jalil Panhandle.

The Resistance's operations also come in light of violent Israeli bombing campaigns in southern Lebanon, which have so far martyred over 200 Lebanese.

Just today, the Israeli occupation bombed Aitaroun, the Slouqi VAlley, al-Khiam, al-Naqoura, and Kfar Tebnit.

Hezbollah's operations since October have led hundreds of thousands of settlers to flee border settlements, warning their government that they would not return unless the Resistance's "threat" is resolved and calling out their authorities for failing to protect them or provide them with the needed security.

Having succeeded with its plans to place huge pressure on "Tel Aviv" in response to its brutal war on Gaza, Hezbollah has conditioned ending the aggression on the Strip to end its operations against Israeli forces.

Falling under unprecedented crises and seeking to return Israelis to their settlements, the occupation entity warned that border calm would be restored either through diplomatic means or through a military operation.
