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 the Director of the Russian National Defense Management Center, Col. Gen. Mikhail Mizintsev on Friday, preparations are underway for a provocation by Ukrainian nationalists.

According to the Director, chemical depots have been mined in the city of Avdiivka and the neo-Nazis have plans to blow up the plant when approaching the formations of the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR)

During a briefing, Mizintsev explained that "in Avdiivka, militants of nationalist formations have fully prepared an inhuman provocation, involving mass poisoning of residents of the adjacent areas with toxic chemicals."

DPR: Kramatorsk attacked by same Ukrainian brigade that hit DPR in March

According to DPR People's Militia Spokesperson Eduard Basurin, the city of Kramatorsk in Kiev-controlled DPR territory was targeted by the same Ukrainian military unit that fired missiles into the heart of Donetsk in mid-March.

Basurin said to Rossiya 1 that this was "the same brigade that fired then at Donetsk, along Universitetskaya [Street]. The launch was north of Krasnoarmeysk, in principle, the same area."

He added that the provocations are aimed at coercing Russia into a peace agreement.

He vowed that the Ukrainian military unit involved in the attack will answer for it.

On Friday,  the Russian Foreign Ministry said Kiev will not be able to evade responsibility for the attack it launched on Kramatorsk using Tochka-U tactical missiles. 

Russia said the "inhumane actions" of the Kiev regime underlined the validity of the tasks of the Russian forces in Ukraine, in a nod to Moscow's announced objectives of "demilitarizing and denazifying Ukraine".

Moscow also used the strike on Kramatorsk to call for the halt of the arms supply to Kiev, which the West has been doing even before the start of the war.

In order to accuse Russia of an alleged missile attack on the Kramatorsk railway station, the ministry indicated, Kiev used photos of Tochka-U launchers from the Allied Resolve 2022 Russia-Belarus joint military exercises, which took place in February.

This is not the first time Ukraine commits a crime and tries to blame Russia for its actions, as Russia's Ambassador to the US, Anatoly Antonov, had said that, with regards to the shelling of Bucha, Ukraine's authorities were shifting the blame.

A war crime had taken place in Bucha, and the Kiev authorities tried to play it off as one committed by Moscow, though the latter stressed that it was the Ukrainians who were behind it.

UN: Missile strike on Kramatorsk "completely unacceptable"

United Nations Spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said Friday that the missile strike in Kramatorsk is "completely unacceptable", adding that it is a "gross violation of human rights law."

Donetsk Governor Pavel Kirilenko stated that 39 people were killed in the attack, which is under the control of Ukraine troops.

The Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) said that in addition to more than 30 casualties, 100 were also injured.

Antonio Guterres, the UN Secretary-General, urged all parties to protect civilians and allow access to humanitarian corridors.
