BREAKING
Sheikh Qassem: Resistance is a source of power for Lebanon that must be preserved.
Sheikh Qassem: "Israel" must implement the agreement as Lebanon has already done so, and any new accord would amount to absolving it and opening the door to further attacks.
Sheikh Qassem: We do not wish to assume anyone's role; those accusing us of this must cease their accusations.
Sheikh Qassem: We will recover our lands through national solidarity; Resistance's goal is national liberation, while enemy goal is occupation.
Sheikh Qassem: Protection of sovereignty protects Lebanon. It is in real danger because of US belligerence, greedy Israeli expansion.
Qassem to Lebanese people: We are not asking for support but for us not to be stabbed in the back in the back or for some to serve Israeli interests; government is primary party responsible for [preservation of] sovereignty.
Sheikh Qassem: "Israel" can occupy, but it cannot persist in occupation of our land.
Sheikh Qassem: Intimidation will not change our stance of resistance and steadfastness. We are not advocates of surrender or defeat, and we will never accept it.
Sheikh Qassem: Where does US stand regarding enemy's unjustified assassination of a government worker and other civilian martyrs?
Sheikh Qassem: Is the Lebanese Army's defense of its land and citizens an accusation [leveled against it]? Where does US stand regarding the enemy's killing of civilians and constant destruction?

Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that at midnight on Sunday, an Israeli airstrike targeted a multi-story residential building in the Cola area of Beirut. This marks the first attack on the capital since the beginning of the war.

Initial reports indicate that it was a drone strike and not an air raid from fighter jets.

Preliminary reports accounted for two martyrs and several wounded and underscored that an unexploded missile remains in the targeted apartment.

Moreover, across Lebanon, our correspondent also mentioned that five airstrikes targeted the vicinity of Hermel in northeastern Lebanon.

In the south, Israeli aircraft struck the towns of al-Mansouri and al-Qlaileh in the Tyre district and al-Ghazzieh in the East Saida area.

Additionally, Al Mayadeen's correspondent denied reports circulating about an attempted Israeli landing south of the city of Tyre.
