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.

Israeli occupation forces arrested 13 Palestinians from various cities in the occupied West Bank during raids in the early hours of Thursday.

Among those arrested was Saeed Nakhla, a prominent leader in the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) movement. He was arrested in Jalazone refugee camp in Ramallah and later taken to an unknown interrogation center while no further information on his whereabouts is available.

Nakhla is considered one of the founding generations of the PIJ. He has experienced multiple periods of imprisonment, having spent more than 17 years in Israeli occupation prisons in addition to three years in Palestinian Authority detention.

Along with Nakhla, Israeli occupation forces arrested Anan Safi, a student at Birzeit University, in Jalazone after storming his house, and arrested Nashami Abu Rahma and Louay Abu Rahma from the town of Bil'in.

Additionally, a young Palestinian was wounded in the leg by live ammunition fired by Israeli occupation forces, while others suffered from suffocation due to the use of tear gas during confrontations between Resistance fighters and raiding occupation forces in the Dheisheh refugee camp in Beit Lahm, southern occupied West Bank.

Costly confrontations

On Wednesday, Resistance fighters of Al-Quds Brigades - Jenin Brigade, discovered a covert Israeli elite force on the outskirts of the Jenin refugee camp and confronted the force in question.

The Resistance group said the Israeli occupation forces called for reinforcements due to heavy, armed confrontations, which put a number of Israeli military vehicles out of service. Israelis had to request more vehicles to tow the vehicles out of the camp.

"The continuation of such operations in our cities will be very costly for the Israeli occupation and will act as a key of hope that will unlock the jail cells of our detainees," a source in the Brigades told Al Mayadeen, in reference to the increasing brutal measures against Palestinian prisoners.
