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.

Iran's Foreign Ministry dismissed on Tuesday reports about Leader Sayyed Ali Khamenei allegedly permitting the country's government to conduct direct negotiations with the United States over the Iranian nuclear program and a mechanism for the lifting of sanctions.

Earlier in the day, the UK-based Amwaj news website, citing sources in Tehran, reported that Sayyed Khamenei had allegedly instructed the Iranian nuclear negotiating team to enter direct talks with the US.

The British website said that Iran taking such a U-turn could be "a watershed moment for the contention over the Iranian nuclear program."

"Such format of reporting and media games, which is usually carried out to create a certain political climate, does not inspire confidence," the ministry said in a statement.

In a televised news conference in August, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian reiterated Iran's commitment to resolving the ongoing nuclear dispute through diplomatic means.

Amir-Abdollahian's statements come after indirect talks between Iran and the United States to revive the 2015 nuclear agreement have reached a deadlock since last September. 

"We have always wanted a return of all parties to full compliance of the 2015 nuclear deal," Amir-Abdollahian stated, signaling Iran's willingness to engage constructively in resolving the longstanding disagreement.

The 2015 nuclear deal, officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), aimed to curb Iran's nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief from world powers.

The talks between Tehran and Washington had been stalled for months, raising concerns over the future of the deal and the potential implications for regional and global security. However, recent developments have offered a glimmer of hope for progress in resolving the diplomatic gridlock.

Tehran and Washington also reached an understanding under which $6 billion in Iranian funds would be unfrozen from South Korea in exchange for the release of 5 Americans.
