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.

On Friday, Russia's Public Opinion Foundation (FOM) released their latest numbers for Putin, and they show that his popularity is growing even more. Putin now holds an enormous 80-percent approval rating.

From June 17 to 19, FOM conducted a national survey with 1,500 respondents over the age of 18 from 53 Russian regions. The margin of error was less than 3.6 percent.

80 percent of respondents trusted Putin, 12 percent did not, and 8 percent were unsure, according to the poll.

In comparison to a similar poll conducted in June 2021, the figures were as follows: 57%, 32%, and 11%, respectively. These findings remained consistent until late February 2022, when Putin's confidence rating began to rise steadily.

The results also showed that 81 percent of respondents approved of the president's actions, while 8 percent disagreed and 11 percent were unsure. As a result, Putin's approval rating has increased by roughly a fifth (from 62 percent) since June 2021.

From June 13 to 19, Russia's Public Opinion Research Center (VTsIOM) conducted a similar poll, interviewing 1,600 citizens over the age of 18. According to VTsIOM, Putin is currently trusted by 81.1 percent of Russian citizens, and his actions are supported by 78.7 percent of respondents. The poll's margin of error was less than one percent.
