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.

The Taliban has criticized the Pakistani government's intention to deport persons unlawfully staying in the country, particularly Afghan residents.

On Tuesday, Pakistani officials ordered 700,000 Afghan people to leave the country owing to their alleged involvement in terrorism or other illegal activities. According to the Pakistani authorities, the migrants must leave Pakistan by November 1 or face deportation.

Taliban Chief Spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid posted on X that Pakistan's behavior is "unacceptable," asserting that Afghan refugees were not the cause of "Pakistan's security problems."

Mujahid considered that unless the Afghans voluntarily decide to leave Pakistan on their own, "Pakistan should tolerate them."

The behavior of Pakistan against Afghan refugees is unacceptable. The Pakistani side should reconsider its plan. Afghan refugees are not involved in Pakistan's security problems. As long as they leave Pakistan voluntarily, that country should tolerate them.

— Zabihullah (..ذبـــــیح الله Ù… ) (@Zabehulah_M33) October 4, 2023

The United Nations reported that around 1.3 million Afghans have been formally registered as refugees in Pakistan, with 880,000 having legal refugee status. According to the Pakistani government, 400,000 Afghans have crossed into Pakistan since the Taliban seized power in Afghanistan in 2021.

According to the Pakistani authorities, at least 700 Afghans were detained in the Pakistani city of Karachi alone in September, which is ten times the number recorded in August, and hundreds more in other cities.
