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

French President Emmanuel Macron denounced on Thursday what he called the "headlong rush" of Iran's nuclear program after talks with Israeli occupation Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who was in Paris to seek pressure and a stronger European stance against Tehran.

In a statement released after a dinner meeting in the Elysee Palace, Macron claimed that Tehran continuing with the atomic project "would inevitably have consequences."

On Tuesday, Netanyahu said during an interview for CNN that he was considering providing military assistance to Ukraine, which included supplying Kiev with the US-made Iron Dome technology.

He further validated statements that the US has transferred stockpiles of artillery stationed in "Israel" to Ukraine.

By "playing the Ukraine card," Netanyahu hopes to "consolidate an anti-Iranian front" with the West, said David Khalfa at the Fondation Jean Jaures, a Paris-based think tank.

The occupation PM hopes for "increased sanctions against Iran and the full addition" of the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) to the list of sanctioned entities, Khalfa added; a step that Frane has so far resisted.

The Israeli occupation embassy in Paris said Netanyahu and Macron sought to discuss "the international effort to stop the Iranian nuclear program."

This comes as Mikhail Ulyanov, Russia's permanent representative to Vienna-based international organizations, slammed the West for using allegations of Iranian drone deliveries to Russia as a "clumsy excuse" to put the Vienna talks on reviving the 2015 Iran nuclear deal on hold, if not canceled entirely.

It is noteworthy that Netanyahu's visit came after an aggression that targeted a convoy of Iranian trucks loaded with humanitarian aid in Al-Bukamal, Syria, as well as a drone attack on an Iranian defense ministry facility in the city of Isfahan, which Tehran has blamed on the Israeli occupation.

The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal, citing unnamed officials, have said the attack was carried out by "Israel's" Mossad.
