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.

A survey conducted by the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) revealed that the majority of British exporters and manufacturers have felt the impact of disruptions in the Red Sea, Reuters reported.

The BCC highlighted that 55% of exporters reported being affected, along with 53% of manufacturers and "business-to-consumer" services firms, a category that includes retailers and wholesalers, according to Reuters.

Overall, 37% reported experiencing an impact across all businesses, the survey found.

"Our research suggests that the longer the current situation persists, the more likely it is that the cost pressures will start to build," BCC's head of trade policy, William Bain, was quoted as saying.

The report emphasized that some companies reported a fourfold increase in container rental costs, while others faced delivery delays ranging from three to four weeks, along with cash flow challenges and shortages in spare parts.

In the same context, the Bank of England highlighted the state of disruption in the Red Sea as one of the main upward risks to inflation this year.

The S&P Purchasing Managers' Index also indicated Thursday that the costs for British companies rose at the fastest rate in six months in February.

It is noteworthy that the operations of the YAF against Israeli and Israeli-bound ships -- carried out in support of the people of Gaza until the Israeli aggression on the Strip ceases -- have forced some companies to take alternative routes including a two-week detour around the tip of southern Africa.

The YAF have also reiterated that they only chose clear and specific targets to hit the Israeli enemy until the American and British forces became involved in the aggression against Yemen, which turned them into targets as well, reiterating that no other countries are being targeted by the YAF.
