BREAKING
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.
Sheikh Qassem: The government’s latest decision [on the disarmament of the Resistance] is non-charter-based, and if the government continues down this path, it is not faithful to Lebanon’s sovereignty.

PIJ official says Hezbollah working alongside Palestinian Resistance

PIJ media official Daoud Shehab says the Resistance had confidential information that the Israeli occupation was planning a major strike against it in Gaza.

The Palestinian Resistance still has the element of surprise and initiative, Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement (PIJ) spokesperson Daoud Shehab told Al Mayadeen on Wednesday.

Operation Al-Aqsa Flood is not just an isolated event, it is the basis for a new phase of confrontation with the Israeli occupation, "and the Axis of Resistance is prepared to go to any length in this battle," Shehab said.

"Hezbollah is playing a major role alongside the Palestinian Resistance in Operation Al-Aqsa Flood," the PIJ spokesperson said.

"The United States does not want any Arab party to lift its head and create a renaissance or independence, and the recalling of the US forces to the region is merely a part of premeditated plans to deter the Axis of Resistance," Shehab underlined.

"The Axis of Resistance will not be deterred by US threats, and it is sending brazen messages that it is prepared to act rather than just talk," he added.

West Bank highly important

"The ongoing battles in the West Bank are highly important because they show the brutality of the Israeli occupation on the ground amid threats of a ground invasion," the PIJ official said.

"All of the parties to the Axis of Resistance are parties to this victory, and after the war is over, we will reveal a lot of details," he added. "The Palestinian Resistance is still launching rockets despite the paramount bombardment."

"The genocide that the occupation is practicing is unrelated to what happened on October 7, and what is going on in the West Bank is proof of this," according to Shehab, who also went on to underline that there are direct links to the battle in Gaza and the West Bank.

He also told Al Mayadeen that the Palestinian Resistance knew that the Israeli occupation was planning a major strike against them in Gaza, which would have been used to allow "Israel" to completely occupy the West Bank.

"Israel is using the aggression to settle its issues with the Palestinian prisoners, which goes to show how brutal of an entity it is," Shehab said. "Israel does not want its captives, and it wishes that its fighter jets could strike them and get rid of them."

"There is no compromising on this issue," Shehab said of the Palestinian prisoners held in the Israeli occupation's prisons, promising them their freedom. "We are a people that cannot leave our prisoners behind in the Israeli occupation's prisons, and this is non-negotiable no matter the amount of blood we shed."

'State'-sanctioned killings on the rise

The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced Wednesday morning that the number of Palestinians martyred in the West Bank since the beginning of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood has reached 103, including two martyrs who died inside Israeli occupation prisons.

Earlier, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that a martyr from Qalandiya arrived at the Palestine Medical Complex in Ramallah after receiving gunshot wounds to the head and chest by Israeli gunfire.

Meanwhile, the political activist from Jenin, Adnan al-Sabah, confirmed to Al Mayadeen that there is a call for a continuous strike and to engage the enemy, amid broad consensus and application.

This morning, Palestinian Resistance fighters opened fire on an Israeli force while it was carrying out a campaign of arrests and raids in the city of Qalqilya.

The occupation carried out raids and a campaign of arrests in several areas of the West Bank, resulting in several confrontations between Palestinians and Israeli occupation forces. This comes as more Palestinians are martyred and injured during marches in the West Bank held in support of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood and the Resistance in the Gaza Strip.

The Palestinian Resistance confronted Israeli occupation forces conducting multiple incursions with large military reinforcements across Jenin and Nablus in the occupied West Bank.
