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.

Mykhailo Podolyak, the Ukrainian president's advisor, stated on Saturday that after closing deals with Western countries for tank deliveries, Kiev is now discussing the supply of long-range missiles and planes to launch strikes on Crimea.

"There are two very important issues are being negotiated now: long-range missiles that will allow the destruction of the Russians' rear infrastructure, primarily artillery depots, a very powerful number of which are in Crimea, and aviation," Podolyak said

He also noted that Ukraine will be requiring around 350 tanks by March presumably referring to the anticipated Ukrainian counteroffensive after their retreat in Bakhmut.

"Now everyone understands that every day is a day we pay for in blood, and therefore we need to do everything very quickly," Podolyak added.

Following persistent pressure from some of its EU and NATO allies, Germany agreed on Wednesday to provide 14 Leopard 2A6 tanks to Ukraine. The United States announced that it will send eight M88 recovery vehicles and 31 Abrams tanks to Ukraine, noting that the delivery might take some time.

In April 2022, after Russia began its military operation in Ukraine, Moscow sent a note to NATO members criticizing their military support for Kiev.   Lavrov had stated that any arms deliveries to Ukraine would be "legitimate targets" for Russian forces.
