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.

The statement issued by some embassies on Monday called for a 'just' and 'speedy' resolution to Kavala's case, four years after he was jailed, saying the case "cast a shadow over respect for democracy."

In response, Interior Minister Suleyman Soylu said Turkey is a democratic state of law. "Ambassadors making a recommendation and suggestion to the judiciary in an ongoing case is unacceptable," he said on Twitter.

Türkiye Cumhuriyeti, demokratik, hukuk devletidir.
Büyükelçilerin yürüyen bir davada yargıya tavsiye ve telkinde bulunması kabul edilemez.

Tavsiye ve telkininiz, hukuk ve demokrasi anlayışınıza gölge düÅŸürmektedir. https://t.co/eJ8K84vq7u

"Your recommendation and suggestion cast a shadow on your understanding of law and democracy," he added.

US State Department spokesperson Ned Price had urged Turkey to release the Turkish businessman immediately, stressing the necessity of the release.
