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 Israeli strike on a school run by the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNWA) in Gaza once again exposed the West's dark and concealed nature to the world, indicated Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Nasser Kanaani, on Monday.

The Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip confirmed that 22 Palestinians were killed and 102 were injured in the latest massacre carried out by the Israeli occupation forces against displaced people in the Abu Araban school in the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza on Sunday.

"The kid-killer Zionist regime’s strike on the UNRWA-run school in Gaza once again illustrated to the world the dark and hidden side of the claimant West," Kanaani posted on X.

A humanitarian approach based on international law cannot be expected from an "illegitimate regime" that began its existence with occupation, massacre, assassination, the killing of women and children, and the destruction of Palestinian homes, stressed the Iranian diplomat.

He pointed to the "sad reality" of the silence and inaction from Western and European governments, which claim to uphold ethics, law, and human rights.

Kanaani also accused these governments of "deceiving public opinion and playing with words and phrases."

The Iranian spokesperson underlined that the US and certain European governments supporting the Israeli occupation entity are the losers in the war against Gaza, adding that they have lost not only the war but also their moral standing and human dignity.

The Israeli strike on the Abu Araban school marked the fifth on a school-turned-shelter in just eight days.

On July 6, Israeli aircraft hit the al-Jaouni school, also run by UNRWA. The following day, four Palestinians were killed in an Israeli strike on the church-run Holy Family school in Gaza City, in the North, according to the Gaza Civil Defense.

On Monday, the Israeli occupation forces hit another school in the Nuseirat. The next day, at least 27 people were killed in an Israeli strike at the entrance to the al-Awda school in the Khan Younis area, southern Gaza.
