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?

Lebanese Energy Minister Walid Fayyad held a meeting with Iran's ambassador to Beirut Mujtaba Amani in the presence of Iranian diplomats as well as a Lebanese delegation -- visiting Iran soon.

During the meeting, Fayyad and Amani discussed the Iranian donation which includes a fuel grant as well as power plant repair and construction.

Fayyad has also affirmed that all Lebanese political forces have encouraged approval of the Iranian donation.

Fayyad recalled that the donation is the result of an initiative by Hezbollah Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah.

Hezbollah Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah has recently expressed to Al Mayadeen, as part of the "Dialogue of the 40th Anniversary”, Hezbollah’s readiness to provide Iranian fuel to Lebanese power plants for free, conditioning the proposal to the Lebanese government's approval.

Fayyad regarded the Iranian initiative as strategically important because it will serve as a starting point for the implementation of the electricity plan developed by the ministry and approved by the Council of Ministers.

“The Iranian initiative will provide more electricity to citizens than private generators, putting the energy sector on a sustainable path of recovery and advancement," according to the Lebanese minister.

On his account, the Iranian ambassador affirmed that "Tehran is keen to provide complete support for Lebanon”, adding “Our country is ready to donate fuel oil for Lebanon upon the approval of the Lebanese government and the official visit of a delegation to Tehran for direct coordination on this matter."

He also stressed the consent of the Lebanese government to reach the desired conclusions, emphasizing that this gift will benefit all Lebanese people. He hoped that it would be the start of cooperation in all areas.

Last month, Al Mayadeen Net conducted an exclusive interview with Lebanese Energy Minister Walid Fayyad during which he welcomed the Iranian donation amid Lebanon's fuel and power crises that have seen people receive less than two hours of electricity a day.
