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 Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement and Hamas issued a joint response to the Egyptian proposal regarding an indirect prisoner exchange deal between the Israeli occupation entity and the Resistance in Gaza, a senior PIJ official told Al Mayadeen on Tuesday.

The official pointed out that the Resistance conditioned in the first clause of its presented document a ceasefire and a complete withdrawal of occupation forces from Gaza, along with a reconstruction plan for the Strip guaranteed by the United Nations Security Council (UNSC).

His statement echoed the position declared by al-Nakhalah and Haniyeh both of whom affirmed repeatedly there will be no prisoner exchange or any other deals unless the Israeli aggression on Gaza is halted.

"Everything being discussed in the media regarding multi-phase prisoner exchange comes after the implementation of the ceasefire and withdrawal, not before it," Al Mayadeen's source added.

Cairo proposed earlier a framework to converge views, stating that it aims to "spare Palestinians further bloodshed." It included three consecutive and interrelated stages leading to a ceasefire. Egypt also noted that the presented roadmap to end the war on Gaza came after addressing concerns about the occupation and the Resistance.

Al-Nakhalah's remarks came in response to a statement made by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu earlier, who claimed that a prisoner exchange deal with the Resistance "will be executed."

The deputy chief of the Islamic Jihad stressed earlier that any response to the Egyptian proposal should be "unified by all Palestinian factions."

Explaining this position, Muhammad al-Hindi pointed out that "Israel wants to continue its aggression on Gaza, after confiscating the prisoner exchange card held by the Resistance."
