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.

Emmanuel Macron will hold talks this week with France's main political parties after his coalition failed to secure a majority in the June parliamentary elections.

The aim of the talks, according to a statement released on Monday by the presidency, will be to "build solutions to serve the French" at a time when there is no "alternative majority" to that of Macron's Ensemble alliance.

A presidential official quoted by AFP said the party leaders will be received at the Elysees separately and successively. This appears to indicate that invitations were extended to the parties of the left under Jean-Luc Melenchon and the far-right under Marine Le Pen.

"As guarantor of the institutions, the president of the Republic is determined to act in the interest of the French," said the official. The French president has not yet commented on the results of the elections.

According to pundits, Macron is out to secure a deal with the traditional Republican party, whose leader Christian Jacob was said to have accepted an invitation to attend the talks.

Jean-Luc Melenchon, the leader of a coalition grouping the French left in the legislative elections, hailed the elections as "above all, the electoral failure of Macronism".

Melenchon told his supporters in Paris "It is a moral failure of the people who are always trying to teach everyone a lesson, who have presented themselves as a dam against the far-right."

He also said his NUPES alliance achieved its main objective of defeating Macron, whom he said was "so arrogant as to twist the arm of the whole country".
