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.

    Lavrov and Putin have both been personally sanctioned by Britain

Britain's government said it might seize a flat owned by a relative of Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, as the UK is set to ramp up its sanctions against Russia next week.

The Economic Crime Bill, which is currently being fast-tracked into law, effectively lowers the bar for the government to slap people with no clear sources of wealth with "unexplained wealth orders."

The UK government said such people could include the daughter of Lavrov's alleged longtime mistress. The Russian Foreign Minister has been personally sanctioned by the UK alongside Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The United Kingdom's land registry database lists Polina Kovaleva, the daughter of Lavrov's lover, as the owner of a £4.4 million apartment in the wealthy neighborhood of Kensington in London.

One UK investigator said that Kovaleva's only source of money seems to be her mother, who is an actress and restaurateur.

The US and UK governments are sanctioning individuals related to Russia and not just entities. 

Earlier in the week, the US justice department stated that a New York federal court charged the head of the Russian Community Coordinating Council (RCCC) in the US, Elena Bransondual, a US-Russian national, with allegedly acting as an illegal foreign agent of Russia without registering with the US government, which the RCCC head slammed as "absurd". 

She said that she had been actively involved with the Russian community in the United States over the past 10 years and had partaken in various projects to preserve the Russian language and the cultural and historical heritage of Russian Americans, as well as strengthening humanitarian ties and dialogue between citizens of the two countries.

"My public activities were open, transparent, and non-political, and information about all ongoing events was published on websites and social networks," she added.

She affirmed that the US charges have been imposed as part of a campaign against Russia.
