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 Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported on Saturday that DPRK leader Kim Jong Un has called South Korea an "unchangeable enemy" and condemned attempts by South Korean media to exaggerate the damage caused by flooding in the country over the week.

Earlier this week, Kim visited flood-stricken areas in the border city of Sinuiju and Uiju County in North Pyongan province.

He personally oversaw the rescue and evacuation of residents, directing efforts by rescue teams using helicopters and boats.

Over 4,200 people were rescued, and Kim has ordered that all possible assistance be provided to those affected.

On Friday, Kim reportedly visited the helicopter unit of the Korean People's Army Air Force that conducted the rescue mission to offer his congratulations.

He also expressed deep gratitude to the Navy sharpshooter brigade soldiers, the maritime guard formation, and the General Reconnaissance Bureau.

Kim also criticized South Korea's "rubbish media" for spreading false information about the number of casualties in the affected areas, which they claimed to be over 1,000-1,500, according to the news agency.

The DPRK leader remarked that the "enemy remains unchanged," condemning the "inveterate habits and despicable nature of the ROK scum," KCNA reported.
