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.

Thousands of protestors marched through central London on Saturday, demanding harsher immigration rules, in a highly policed march following the arrest of a far-right leader.

Former English Defence League leader Tommy Robinson's supporters demanded his release and criticized the government for cracking down on anti-immigration riots over the summer.

A counter-protest organized by a coalition of hard-left organizations took place at the same time, raising fears of violence in central London.

A third protest by the family of a man killed by a police marksman, who was cleared of murder last week, exacerbated the situation.

Robinson was remanded in jail on Friday until a court hearing on Monday over claims that he violated a 2021 High Court ruling prohibiting him from making libelous allegations about a Syrian refugee who successfully sued him. The Metropolitan Police in London stated that it arrested two people during the rally for alleged public order violations.

Two other persons were detained for suspected assault near the counter-demonstration, the statement added.

In late August, research showed that following anti-immigrant riots, nearly 75% of Brits are concerned about right-wing extremism, and a rising proportion are worried about societal tensions.

A poll revealed that 73% of respondents expressed concern about right-wing extremism, an increase of 11% from the same questions in March of this year.

In all, 85% of individuals surveyed said they thought British society is extremely or fairly divided, which is the biggest percentage to say that since 2019. Only 11% disagreed.
