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.

Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev stated that Russia aims to secure a victory, expand its territories, and continue its ongoing military operation until it dismantles the regime in Ukraine and reclaims its historical territories from Nazi influence.

"Victory will be ours and there will be more new Russian regions," he wrote on Telegram.

"The special military operation will continue until the Nazi Kiev regime is completely destroyed and the original Russian lands are liberated from the enemy," he further said.

In a bid to regain lost ground, Ukraine launched a much-anticipated counteroffensive in early June. The operation fell short of meeting its objective, as per US officials, while major media outlets went as far as calling it a failure.

Ukraine's long-discussed counteroffensive is nearing its end without any significant progress, BBC concluded in a field report conducted at the east front lines in Ukraine.

Despite the massive military support to Ukraine, media outlets on Kiev's side confirmed earlier that the West and NATO failed to "outgun Russia", which continues to repel Ukrainian attacks, as well as destroy and capture their foreign-provided hardware.

On July 31, Medvedev said that Russia would be compelled to employ nuclear weapons if Kiev's counter-offensive was successful.

If the NATO-backed offensive led Ukraine to tear off a part of Russia, "then we would be forced to use a nuclear weapon according to the rules of a decree from the president of Russia. There would simply be no other option," he wrote on social media.

He further said that the enemies of Russia should "pray for our warriors' (success)," since that would ensure that nuclear war does not erupt.

He has repeatedly warned of the outbreak of nuclear war, most recently in May when he commented on Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki's announcement that Poland wanted to host US nuclear weapons.

In February, he warned that Moscow would use all possible means to defend itself, including nukes.
