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.

New Zealand adopted new sanctions against 22 Russian and Belarusian citizens, including family members of Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov and daughters of Russia's President Vladimir Putin, in addition to 4 Russian entities.

The country's Foreign Minister Nanaia Mahuta announced on Monday that the sanctions targeted 22 "members of the elite".

"Further sanctions now target 22 members of the elite who lend support to the illegal invasion of Ukraine and who have been rewarded for their loyalty with wealth and influence".

"Russia relies on the ongoing support of those in positions of power and influence as it continues its illegal and unjustified invasion of Ukraine," Mahuta added.

The statement announced that New Zealand sanctioned Putin's daughters, Peskov's wife, and children, in addition to the wife and son of President of Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko and Russia's Central Bank chief Elvira Nabiullina.

Sanctions also included 4 Russian entities in the field of energy, transport, steel, and electronics.

"The sanctions involve travel bans; prohibitions on dealing with assets or services, shares or securities; and prohibitions on vessels like superyachts or aircraft entering this country. We continue to remind New Zealanders there is a ‘do not travel’ advisory in place for Russia and Ukraine," the minister stated.
