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.

According to Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has arrived in New York.

In a Telegram post on Sunday night, the spokeswoman confirmed Lavrov arrived in New York's capital and stated a UN Security Council meeting would take place under his chairmanship on Monday.

On Monday, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov will preside over a high-level open discussion at the UN Security Council (UNSC) on successful multilateralism via the defense of the UN Charter's tenets. They will meet with UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres in New York.

The senior Russian diplomat is anticipated to go through a variety of topics with Guterres including Russia-UN ties and a number of collaborative initiatives, including the Black Sea grain project.

Lavrov will deliver a thorough, strategic discussion on the foundations of global peace and security in his address to the UNSC. The maintenance of the UN Charter's democratic foundations, which are founded on the sovereign equality of nations, will get special attention in the discussion.

In a subsequent post, Zakharova stated that about three million people tracked Lavrov's trip from Moscow to New York on the Flightradar tracking website, a new "record."

Earlier, Lavrov announced that a Russian delegation would visit Brazil, Venezuela, Cuba, and Nicaragua.

Lavrov further stressed that it was in this "spirit of strategic partnership" that Moscow desired to send a delegation to develop relations in Latin America, "including Brazil, Venezuela, Cuba, and Nicaragua, which our delegation will pay visits to in the second half of April."

Farhan Haq, the UN Secretary General's Deputy Spokesman, did not comment on Sunday on the US rejection to give visas to Russian journalists who were meant to follow Foreign Minister Lavrov to the UN Security Council.

Moscow condemned Washington's decision not to provide visas to the journalists, claiming that the US had broken its promises to preserve free expression.
