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.

It is necessary to completely resume the operations of Al-Hudaydah port and the Sanaa International Airport, the Yemeni Supreme Political Council said Monday.

"The extension of the truce requires a commitment to pay the salaries of all employees and the resumption of all the services cut off by the Saudi-led coalition to increase the suffering of the Yemeni people," the Sanaa government said.

The Saudi-led coalition blockaded the Al-Hudaydah port and the Sanaa International Airport as part of its war on Yemen, which has been going on for the better half of a decade.

"We made the initiative of opening a special account in the Central Bank's branch in Al-Hudaydah, and the earnings of the port were sent there to contribute to the salaries of government employees," the Supreme Political Council added.

Sanaa also underlined that the other parties and the United Nations did not commit to bridging the gap in the salaries of the employees and retirees.

The Ansar Allah movement strongly condemned on Saturday Saudi Arabia for allowing "Zionist elements to desecrate the sacred Islamic rites in Mecca and Medina," stressing that the facilitation provided by the Saudi regime to the Israelis comes at a time when millions of pilgrims are barred from performing the Hajj.

Yemeni Supreme Political Council leader Mahdi Al-Mashat announced in early April that Sanaa was unilaterally suspending all airstrikes and UAV and military operations against Saudi Arabia for three days.

There has been an armistice in place between Sanaa and Riyadh since, though it has been violated by the Saudi-led coalition numerous times.

About 3,947 violations were committed by the forces affiliated with the Saudi coalition during the second month of the truce that ended on June 2, and 5,395 violations during the first month of the truce itself, which included dozens of air raids with reconnaissance aircraft of the Saudi coalition on army and committee sites, as well as civilian homes in a number of Yemeni governorates and border fronts.
