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.

Hussein stressed that Iraq has taken all necessary measures to secure the arrival of Iranian pilgrims to perform the Arbaeen pilgrimage, expressing his hope to begin operational steps for the land and maritime borders agreements and to dig the sea deposits in the Shatt al-Arab (Arvand Rud) waterway.

Iraqi Ministry of Water Resources Spokesperson Aoun Dhiab had said last month that the issue of Shatt al-Arab must be resolved in order to prevent the same thing from happening every year, which is why a plan was proposed to build a joint dam with Iran in the region.

The Iraqi Minister stressed the importance of continued cooperation, noting that the water problems Iraq is going through because of its insufficient water resources or the diversion of river courses have had severe environmental and economic repercussions.

Both sides lauded Iraqi PM Mustafa al-Kadhimi's visit to Tehran and his meeting with Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi. They also discussed the Iranian financial claims in return for buying gas and electricity in light of the sanctions imposed on Iran.
