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.

Commenting on the devastating incident, Haniyeh was quoted by Hamas' Media Office as saying, "With this pain and blood, we create hope, a future, and freedom for our people, our cause, and our nation."

"My sons, the martyrs, achieved the greatest honor and an [honorable death]," he explained. 

"My sons remained with the sons of our people in the Gaza Strip and they did not leave the Strip," Haniyeh emphasized.

"All of our people and every family in the Gaza Strip paid a steep price [toward the Palestinian struggle] with the blood of their children and I am one of them."

"Nearly 60 of my relatives were martyred... there is no difference between them [and other Palestinians]," the head of the Hamas politburo added.
