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.

The Secretary-General of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, congratulated the Iranian president-elect Masoud Pezeshkian on his victory in the snap presidential election, on Saturday. 

In a congratulatory message sent on behalf of Hezbollah, Sayyed Nasrallah wished the president-elect a successful term in office, hoping that Pezeshkian achieves the aspirations of the "sacrificial and loyal" Iranian people.

He explained that Hezbollah and all Resistance movements in the region, "who have for many years been engaged in open confrontation with Zionist occupation forces" and the project of American hegemony, view the Islamic Republic of Iran as their [axis of] support. And this, according to Sayyed Nasrallah, has been the case since the triumph of the Islamic Revolution, under the leadership of Sayyed Ruhollah Khomeini, and later Sayyed Ali Khamenei and the successive governments under his guidance.

"We always view the Islamic Republic of Iran as a strong, stable, and permanent supporter for the Resistance [movements] and the downtrodden," Sayyed Nasrallah wrote. 

The Lebanese Resistance leader said the Resistance movements would continue to tread on the same path until "achieving the final victory, the focal point of which is the mighty and powerful Iran."

Earlier on Saturday, Pezeshkian was announced as the new president-elect of Iran after receiving 54.76% of 30,530,157 votes. The reformist secured the title after beating principalist candidate Saeed Jalili in the second round of a snap election called for following the martyrdom of President Ebrahim Raisi, who died in a helicopter crash on May 19.

Although Pezeshkian is of a different political camp than that of martyr Raisi, he pledged to "untangle the knots one by one under the supervision of the leader of the Revolution and the Islamic Republic, Sayyed Ali Khamenei."
