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 Minister of Defense in the Sanaa government, Mohammad al-Atifi, confirmed that “our forces have several options to attack the Zionist enemy if it does not stop its aggression and siege on Gaza and Palestine.”

During his inspection visit to the Fifth Military Region, where he met with the commanders of axes, brigades, and military units, al-Atifi emphasized, "We are closely monitoring and tracking the [Israeli] entity's movements worldwide."

He further asserted, "The Zionist enemy is targeting children, women, and the wounded, with the backing of the forces of global arrogance, spearheaded by Washington, London, Paris, and all the forces of evil."

Furthermore, the Yemeni minister emphasized that "Yemen has now emerged as the most challenging and influential factor in any geopolitical equation," highlighting that "the Yemeni armed forces have established a new paradigm on both regional and global scales."

He added, "The presence and activities of foreign forces and their proxies in the region impose upon us, as the Yemeni armed forces, a series of sacred national responsibilities and missions, with vigilance and caution being among the foremost priorities."

Al-Atifi described the upcoming stage as "sensitive and precise," being no less significant or perilous than previous phases of ongoing confrontations. He stressed the need for thorough preparation, both in terms of high readiness for defensive and offensive battles and in terms of understanding the tasks and grasping the nature of forthcoming developments—whether on a local, regional, or international scale.

Moreover, he called on nations worldwide to swiftly forge alliances with Yemen, as it aims to free itself from injustice and domination.
