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 occupation army's spokesperson explained - under the permitted to publish clause - that the dead officer was a combat officer in the 363rd Battalion, Harel Brigade (10), who was killed on Tuesday in a battle in the southern Gaza Strip.

Another fighter from the Rotem Battalion, the Givati ​​Brigade, was also seriously affected during the battle in the southern Gaza Strip.

IOF in need of psychotropic medication

The social and environmental correspondent of the Israeli newspaper Maariv, Yuval Bagno, stated on December 17 that a 90% increase in the consumption of psychotropic medication as a result of war trauma has been recorded since October 7 in "Israel". 

He added that the Israeli Public Health Association has seen an influx in requests from Israelis asking for professional help as they develop a borderline addiction to these medications.

Israeli newspaper Haaretz cited the Public Health Services and stated that in October, the number of prescriptions for nerve medications related to psychological disorders and panic treatment increased by 11% compared to the preceding month.

Additionally, Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth mentioned that "direct exposure to attacks has led to a threefold increase in the risk of mental disorders". It stated that after two months of war, "many are experiencing distress or a psychological crisis; some are struggling to return to their routine lives, while others suffer from psychological disorders and continuous pain."
