Russian Ministry of Defense: 37 Ukrainian drones destroyed in 4 hours over regions of Russia and the Black Sea.

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.

Lebanese Interior and Municipalities Minister Bassam Mawlawi announced Monday the winners in the Lebanese parliamentary elections in seven electoral districts, while the results in the remaining districts will be announced when vote-counting is over.

"Despite the hardship and doubts, we were able to hold elections in a proper manner. All the bids to strike the authenticity of the vote-counting do not affect our work, employees, nor the judiciary," Mawlawi said ahead of revealing the winners in the legislative elections held in Lebanon on Sunday.

"The voter turnout is not low. It is good, and it is around the same turnout as that of the 2018 parliamentary election," the minister added.

The results, according to Mawlawi, are as follows:

South I
