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.

After just over a year in power, the Libyan parliament votes in favor of withdrawing the confidence from the Debeibeh-led national unity government.

The Libyan parliament passed Tuesday a no-confidence vote in Abdul Hamid Dbeibeh's government, Libya's unity government. This constituted a blow to the peace efforts and hopes in the war-torn country that has not known peace since the NATO military intervention that overthrew and killed former President Muammar Gaddafi.

According to a spokesman, the vote saw 89 out of Libya's 113 MPs voting to withdraw Parliament's confidence in the interim unity government.

The escalation came three months ahead of the December 24 legislative and presidential elections amid rising tensions between the government and the House of Representatives.

Earlier this month, Aguila Saleh, the speaker for Libya's parliament, ratified an electoral law regarding the presidential vote, which put him under fire for not presenting a final draft for the assembly to vote on.

Libya's upper house, the High Council of State, rejected Monday said legislation.

Khalid al-Mishri, the head of the High Council of State, rejected Monday legislation that he asserted had been passed "without a legal vote or consensus."

On the no-confidence vote, a spokesman said the HCS rejected it, asserting that it contravened an agreement signed in Skheirat, Morocco in 2015.

The government was an interim, transitional one, and it took office in February with a mandate of guiding the country to the December 24 elections. It came into power as part of a UN-led process established to curb violence in the country.

The government came into power five months after a ceasefire took place between Libya's rival camps after a long period of violence.
