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.

The Kremlin confirmed that Russian President Vladimir Putin held a phone conversation with his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Saturday and briefed him on the situation in the country in light of the attempted armed mutiny.

"At the initiative of the Turkish side, Russian President Vladimir Putin held a telephone conversation with the President of the Republic of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan," the Kremlin said in a statement.

It indicated that "the Russian president informed [him] about the situation in the country in connection with the attempted armed mutiny." 

According to the Kremlin, Erdogan expressed his full support for the measures taken by the Russian leadership.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan warned Putin that no one should profit from the circumstances surrounding an armed uprising by the Wagner Group Private Military Company (PMC) in Russia, the Turkish presidential office said, reporting on Erdogan's phone discussion with Vladimir Putin.

"President Recep Tayyip Erdogan held a phone conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin. During the talk, recent events in Russia were discussed. President Erdogan stressed the importance of acting with common sense. During the call, it was highlighted that no one should take advantage of the situation in Russia," the office said.

Erdogan also said during the call that Turkey is prepared to assist Moscow in finding a solution "in peace and tranquility."

In the same context, Kremlin Spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said Putin held phone talks with his Belarusian, Uzbek, and Kazakh counterparts.

"The president informed his interlocutors about the situation," Peskov told reporters.

Earlier today, Putin vowed in a live speech that all parties responsible for the attempted armed mutiny in Rostov will face the rule of law and will have to answer to the people of Russia.

His address came after Wagner PMC under the group's chief Yevgeny Prigozhin staged a military mutiny in Rostov region southwest of Russia and took control of the city Saturday morning.

Prigozhin announced on his Telegram channel storming the region and taking over the military headquarters of the city, in response to what he claims was a Russian attack on his troops earlier under the orders of the Russian Defense Ministry.

The Wagner chief was slammed with criminal charges for staging the mutiny. He had called on the group's supporters inside Russia to join his movement and rebel against Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, as well as the Chief of Staff and commander of the military operations in Ukraine, General Valery Gerasimov. Prigozhin conditioned that he would only withdraw from Rostov if Shoigu resigned.
