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 occupation's aggression on Gaza, which started on October 7, has thus far martyred 13,500 people, some of whom are still missing under the rubble but presumed dead, state media in Gaza reported on Tuesday.

The government media in Gaza said the number of child martyrs in Gaza since the beginning of the aggression has reached 4,237 martyrs, confirming that the occupation has committed 1,071 massacres so far.

It said that there are 1.5 million displaced people living in shelters, including schools and hospitals.

Regarding the airstrikes carried out by the occupation on Gaza, it was announced that more than 30,000 tons of explosives have been dropped on Gaza since the beginning of the aggression.

The government media in Gaza pointed out that 46% of the martyrs are from the southern areas that the occupation claims are safe, explaining that the occupation exploited the escape of dozens of citizens to talk about opening a humanitarian corridor.

The Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip continues for the 32nd day, targeting all facilities without discrimination, committing massacres against civilians who sought refuge in these places, thinking they were "safe".

Gaza interior minister Iyad al-Bazm said all the bakeries in the governorates of Gaza and northern Gaza have been taken out of service, which threatens the lives of 900,000 people who are still there and refusing to be forcibly displaced.

"All the bakeries in the governorates of Gaza and northern Gaza are out of service, which puts at risk the lives of 900,000 people who are still refusing to be forcibly displaced despite the Israeli occupation's efforts to push them out of their homes," the Interior Ministry in Gaza said.

He pointed out that residents in the shelters in the Gaza and North Gaza governorates "have not been spared from Israeli bombardment," confirming that "no aid has reached Gaza and North Gaza for 32 days."

The Ministry of Health in Gaza announced earlier today that the occupation had committed 21 massacres in the past hours, claiming the lives of 548 martyrs. Noting that the number of massacres committed by the occupation against families rose to 1,071.

Dozens of Palestinians were killed in a series of intense Israeli airstrikes on the 32nd day of the occupation's aggression on the Gaza Strip.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that more than 20 people were killed in Israeli airstrikes that targeted 5 houses and the Intervention and Public Safety Forces Center in the city of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.

The number of martyrs from al-Rayati family has risen to 21 in the shelling of their house in al-Janina neighborhood in southern Rafah in the Gaza Strip, as reported by our correspondent.

Concurrently, more than 40 people, including martyrs and wounded, arrived at Nasser Hospital following the deliberate targeting of al-Astal family's house in the center of Khan Yunis city in the southern Gaza Strip.

Additionally, many were martyred and injured in Israeli airstrikes that targeted the vicinity of the Kamal Adwan Hospital and Al-Quds Hospital in the Gaza Strip. Israeli warplanes also launched intense airstrikes very close to the Indonesian Hospital in the northern Gaza Strip.

6 Palestinian children dying per hour

The Gaza government media office revealed that hospitals have been receiving an average of one injured person per minute since the start of the aggression and 15 martyrs per hour. The average of children martyrs is six per hour, while female martyrs is five per hour.

Additionally, a significant 70% of Gaza's population has been forcibly displaced from their homes due to the persistent bombardment and airstrikes.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health has stated that the healthcare system in Gaza has completely collapsed and is unable to save the lives of the wounded and patients. They have called for the immediate provision of a safe humanitarian corridor to allow the entry of medical supplies, fuel, and the transfer of the wounded. The Ministry also called for the provision of food, water, and other essentials for the medical teams working in hospitals.

Meanwhile, the Israeli military continues to target civilian infrastructure, including solar power panels in the main building of al-Shifa Medical Complex. Half of Gaza's hospitals and 62% of primary healthcare centers are effectively out of service. Around 50% of residential units in Gaza have been damaged due to airstrikes and bombings, with 10% of them completely destroyed or rendered uninhabitable.

The media office warned against the ongoing and escalating incitement by the Israeli military against hospitals in Gaza. They pointed out that repeated attacks on safe civilian facilities will lead to a repetition of the massacre committed by the occupation in the al-Ahli Baptist Hospital.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health has announced that the death toll from the aggression on Gaza has risen to over 10,000 martyrs, with 70% of them being women and children.
