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 Pakistani Armed Forces’ media wing, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), announced that Pakistan successfully tested its Shaheen III missile.

In a statement on Saturday, the ISPR disclosed that the country conducted a successful flight test of Shaheen-III surface to surface ballistic missile. "The test flight was aimed at re-validating various design and technical parameters of the weapon system."

Lt. Gen. Nadeem Zaki Manj, the Director-General of the Strategic Plans Division, oversaw the test and expressed confidence regarding Pakistan's capabilities of deterring nuclear threats.

The land-based surface-to-surface medium-range ballistic missile Shaheen-III can carry both conventional and nuclear warheads. The Shaheen-III ballistic missile underwent its initial tests in March 2015.

This comes following the Pakistani opposition's no-confidence vote against Prime Minister Imran Khan and his government passed the National Assembly with a slight win against MPs who opposed the bid to oust the premier, Pakistani media reported.

The no-confidence vote garnered 174 votes in favor, while the National Assembly has 342 MPs, and the result was announced by PML-N's Ayaz Sadiq, who was chairing the session instead of speaker Asad Qaiser who had resigned minutes before the session started.

The no-confidence vote was postponed twice in the past week. Members of Khan's party said on Friday that they will strive to postpone the vote as long as possible, following Khan's pledge to "fight" any attempt to oust him, citing foreign conspiracy against Islamabad and US interference and shining at a "threat letter" from the US because he refused to establish US military bases in Pakistan.
