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.

Israeli media has reported suspicions that a Hezbollah drone might have been used to photograph the Israeli occupation's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s residence in Qaysaria, south of Haifa.

According to Israeli newspaper Israel Hayom, a radar on an Israeli missile ship stationed offshore from Qaysaria detected a drone. This detection was interpreted as a Hezbollah surveillance drone intended to photograph Netanyahu’s seaside residence. 

However, the Israeli military suggested that this could be a "false alarm," noting that radar systems sometimes issue warnings even in the case of flocks of birds or other objects, which were previously considered "accurate."

The newspaper also reported that fighter jets were dispatched to the area after the detection, but were unable to locate the drone.

WSJ: Netanyahu wants to occupy Gaza, it won't be as easy as he thinks

The Israeli occupation is not only feeling isolated but is also experiencing a sense of being under siege, particularly in the aviation sector, Israeli newspaper Haaretz said on Wednesday.

"Israel" is on high alert following threats from Iran and Hezbollah in response to the recent assassinations of Hezbollah commander Fouad Shokor in Beirut and Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh.

Haaretz said "Israel" was once an integral part of the global community, with flights arriving regularly and people moving freely. However, this reality has changed due to what it described as a "siege" and the accompanying hardships.

The newspaper noted that domestic flights within "Israel" have become almost impossible, with many settlers now staying close to fortified rooms out of fear of potential strikes.

The feeling of being under siege intensified last week, Haaretz reported, as foreign airlines began avoiding Tel Aviv. The situation worsened when Lufthansa, the second-largest airline in Europe in terms of passenger numbers and fleet size, stopped landing in occupied Palestine, signaling a collapse of the Israeli aviation sector.

Ticket prices have soared, with Haaretz citing an example where a one-way ticket from London to Tel Aviv on El Al Airlines for the upcoming Thursday costs $1,487. A round-trip ticket from Tel Aviv to London is priced at $2,366, with the added challenge that economy-class seats are currently unavailable.

The newspaper also pointed out that airline owners are among the few who are benefiting from the ongoing war and soaring tensions. El Al, a publicly traded company controlled by Eli Rozenberg, son of American billionaire Kenny Rozenberg, became the most profitable airline in the first quarter of this year, reporting a net profit of $80.5 million.
