BREAKING
Russian Ministry of Defense: 37 Ukrainian drones destroyed in 4 hours over regions of Russia and the Black Sea.
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.

Turkey evacuated a military base in Qastoun, south of the M4 highway in Idlib, and the Turkish forces there have begun tearing down the military base in question, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported.

Local sources reported that the Turkish forces moved the cement blocks, which form the base of Qastoun, to the north of the city of Ariha on the M4 highway.

News portals associated with the Hayat Tahrir Al-Sham terrorist group reported in late January that a Turkish occupation base in Idlib was shelled by the Syrian Arab Army.

According to the news portals, the shelling led to numerous casualties among the Turkish soldiers, leading Turkey to send helicopters to its military base to transport the dead and wounded back to Turkey.

Days earlier, there were reports about escalations between Turkey and Syria in the city of Aleppo.

Al Mayadeen correspondent in Aleppo reported that the city of Azaz, in the northern Aleppo governorate, had witnessed escalations, noting that three gunmen were killed, including an official in the Turkish-backed Northern Storm Brigade.

There were also escalations in mid-January, with there being an exchange of artillery fire that saw the Turkish forces launching more than 150 artillery shells at various villages in the northern countryside of Aleppo.
