BREAKING
Al-Houthi: We find ourselves in the most sacred battle and the greatest position. We do not consider the sacrifices to be wasted losses; rather, we have given everything for the sake of this stance.
Al-Houthi: The Zionist scheme is undoubtedly a plot to enslave and exploit this nation. This is a fact, not an exaggeration.
Al-Houthi: Great sacrifice in the path of God only increases our steadfastness, determination, certainty, resilience, and cohesion.
Al-Houthi: The Zionist crime confirms the importance of Yemen's conscious and insightful position based on constants, values, and human ethics.
Al-Houthi: The Israeli enemy is a criminal who proves its brutality and monstrosity through all its criminal practices, void of any controls.
Al-Houthi: The Israeli enemy's record is one of terrible and horrific crimes, full of bloodshed against the Palestinian people and people in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, and Iran.
Al-Houthi: The crime of targeting ministers and civilian workers adds to the Israeli enemy's criminal record in the region.
Al-Houthi: All of the martyrs were ministers working in civilian fields.

The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah issued Monday a message to the people of Southern Lebanon, celebrating their return to their border villages as a "confident crossing of victors under the watchful eyes of our steadfast fighters."

The statement praised the resilience of the southerners, whose "willpower prevailed" while the "enemy's resolve crumbled." It commended those who "defied the cowardly Israeli soldiers and returned to their villages," highlighting that the enemy's objectives were thwarted, and their tanks burned at the village gates by Islamic Resistance fighters.

Addressing the people of the south, the message declared, "The bodies of the martyrs buried in the soil feel the impact of your steps today, and their purified spirits hover around the unbroken banner of resistance that you carry toward a victory you have earned, as you have for every triumph before."

The Resistance concluded with a tribute: "In the name of every fighter, and the souls of the martyrs who watered the homeland's soil with their blood, we salute every mother, father, brother, sister, elder, and child, with the arms of jihad and resistance."

This comes as thousands of Southerners gathered at the entrances of their villages, preparing to enter after the 60-day deadline expired. 

Israeli media outraged

The Israeli TV channel Kan expressed deep dismay, highlighting the alarming sight of Lebanese civilians approaching an Israeli tank at point-blank range in the town of Maroun al-Ras, situated on the Lebanese border with occupied Palestine. An Israeli officer in Southern Lebanon described this as "a zero-distance confrontation between Israeli soldiers and Lebanese civilians," condemning the situation as "unacceptable."

Israeli media has raised concerns over the fact that Israeli settlers have not returned to settlements along the Lebanese border, starkly contrasting with the determination of the Lebanese people. As they return to their homes, the Lebanese are crafting a powerful narrative of resilience and defiance, transforming their return into a symbolic morale victory against oppression. Despite facing continuous threats and violations, their unwavering commitment to reclaiming their land and dignity serves as a testament to their strength and resolve.

These developments unfolded as the 60-day deadline for the full Israeli withdrawal from all Lebanese territories, as stipulated in the ceasefire agreement, expired today, Sunday.

Despite the failure to adhere to the withdrawal and ongoing violations in southern villages, "Israel"—under US backing—confirmed through Prime Minister Netanyahu’s office that its forces would not fully withdraw from southern Lebanon after the expiration of the deadline. 

Hezbollah responded late Thursday, declaring that "any violation of the 60-day deadline is a blatant breach of the agreement and an escalation of the assault on Lebanese sovereignty." The Resistance movement emphasized that the Israeli occupation had entered a new phase that should be confronted by the Lebanese state using all available methods guaranteed by international law to reclaim and liberate the land.
