BREAKING
Russian Ministry of Defense: 37 Ukrainian drones destroyed in 4 hours over regions of Russia and the Black Sea.
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.

Despite international criticism, the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) officially designated six Palestinian rights groups as “terrorist organizations”, according to Israeli media.

Following a similar decision by Security Minister Benny Gantz last month, the head of the IOF Central Command has also now “outlawed the groups”, Israeli media reported.

With this official designation, the occupation forces now have the authority to close the organization's offices and arrest its members, among other violent acts.

On October 22, Israeli PM Benny Gantz announced that his government is listing six Palestinian NGOs as "terrorist organizations", accusing them of having links with the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).

The organizations in question are the al-Haq human rights group, the Addameer rights group, Defense for Children International-Palestine, the Bisan Center for Research and Development, the Union of Palestinian Women’s Committees, and the Union of Agricultural Work Committees.

The designated organizations have been delivering humanitarian aid to Palestinians harmed by the Israeli occupation and who have had their human rights abused in the occupied territories.

EU unconvinced by Israeli claims

European countries are not convinced by the alleged proofs "Israel" has presented to designate six Palestinian human rights groups as "terrorists".

A 74-page document prepared by the Israeli Shin Bet service has been shared with European governments back in May, supposedly containing "evidence" linking the Palestinian NGOs with the  PLFP, a resistance faction. The confidential dossier failed to persuade its recipients of the truthfulness of any claims made by the Israeli occupation.

In turn, the European countries refused to stop financing the listed groups with many officials revealing their skepticism towards the allegation.
