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.

In a message of solidarity and pride, Ziyad al-Nakhalah, Secretary-General of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement, extended congratulations to the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon for their steadfastness and sacrifices.

In his statement addressed to Hezbollah Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassem, al-Nakhalah highlighted the shared struggle between the Palestinian and Lebanese Resistance movements against common enemies, including the United States and its allies.

"From Palestine to Lebanon, from steadfast Gaza with its Resistance fighters to the resilient Southern Suburb and its people, and from the brave fighters of Palestine to the fighters of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon, you have upheld the banner of Resistance with dignity and pride despite the wounds and the enemies' onslaught," he wrote.

Al-Nakhalah praised Hezbollah's unwavering support for Palestine, stating, "You fought, stood firm, and supported your brethren in Palestine, offering precious and pure blood while others failed to provide even a sip of water to the thirsty and hungry among the Palestinian people."

He also commended the Lebanese people's resilience, Hezbollah's fallen martyrs, and the bravery of its fighters, particularly those stationed on the southern front. He reaffirmed the unity of their cause, expressing confidence in victory through steadfastness and faith.

Al-Nakhalah concluded with the immortal words of Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah: "We are never defeated! We either achieve victory or victory."

Below is the letter translated in full:

In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate

"Do not falter or grieve, for you will have the upper hand, if you are [true] believers"

A message of congratulations from the Secretary-General of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement, the Mujahid Commander Ziyad al-Nakhalah, to the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon

To His Eminence Sheikh Naim Qassem, Secretary-General of Hezbollah, may Allah preserve him:

Peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be upon you.

From Palestine to Lebanon, from steadfast Gaza with its men and Resistance fighters to the fighting Southern Suburb [of Beirut] and its people, and from the valiant fighters and resisters of Palestine to the fighters of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon,

All glory is yours as you record this steadfastness and strength, raising the banner of Resistance high with pride and dignity despite the wounds and the enemies' conspiracies, spearheaded by the United States and its allies.

You fought, endured, and supported your brethren in Palestine, offering precious and pure blood while others failed to provide even a sip of water to the thirsty and hungry among the people of Palestine.

I congratulate your steadfastness and that of the dear Lebanese people. I congratulate your martyrs who have risen in defense of religion, dignity, and homeland. I congratulate your brave and valiant fighters everywhere in Lebanon, especially the Resistance fighters on the southern front, who remain steadfast in their positions with their hands on the trigger.

By Allah's will, we will remain with you as one united front and one resistance until victory, with Allah’s help.

I repeat the immortal words of the martyr on the path to al-Quds, His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah:
"We are never defeated! We either achieve victory or victory."

Secretary-General of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement
Ziyad al-Nakhalah
