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.

Early this morning, the Israeli occupation forces raided the West Bank city of Ramallah and murdered a young Palestinian.

Martyr Muhammad al-Deek, who was only 16 years old, was killed after he succumbed to his wounds due to taking direct fire from the Israeli occupation forces that raided the town of Kafr Ni’ma in Ramallah, the occupied West Bank. 

Painful goodbye..

However, the Israeli occupation did not just raid Ramallah. In what has become a daily practice aimed at terrorizing Palestinians in the occupied West Bank of occupied Palestine, the Israeli occupation raided a number of cities and detained several Palestinians.

Ahmed Iyad Sweilem was detained from Qalqiliya. He was not the only one to be detained, as at least four other youths were detained from Qalqiliya as well.

IOF storm Nablus

The Israeli occupation forces invading the West Bank also stormed houses and vandalized them, coinciding with the outbreak of confrontations with resisting Palestinian youths.

In the early hours of the morning, military vehicles stormed the city of Nablus from the direction of the military checkpoint in the eastern part of the city.

Even throughout the morning, the Israeli occupation has been stopping and searching vehicles in Nablus.

Moreover, the occupation forces, using about 10 military vehicles, also raided the towns of Sanur and Jaba', located south of the Jenin governorate, leading to intense confrontations that included gunfire directed at the occupation's vehicles in Jaba'.

Local sources reported that snipers from the Israeli occupation forces were deployed in various areas in Jaba' before violent confrontations erupted in the town. The occupation forces used live fire and stun grenades throughout the confrontations, which coincided with the occupation's raid into the primary printing press store in town.

Local residents stated that the occupation forces invaded Sanur's printing press, and stole some of its contents.

Reportedly, the Israeli occupation left a leaflet behind, in the printing press, which was titled "Cancer of Terrorism," which contained the following text: "This place is afflicted with the cancer of terrorism, and we have come to remove the tumor." The Israeli occupation is undoubtedly referring e to the Palestinian Resistance in the governorate of Jenin, because this is not the first time a printing press has been raided in the West Bank.

20,000 worshippers prayed in al-Aqsa defying Israeli restrictions

Around 20,000 Muslim worshippers performed the Friday prayers in al-Aqsa Mosque despite Israeli restrictions, the Islamic Endowments Ministry's al-Quds Department announced on Friday.

The Department responsible for managing affairs in the mosque and Islamic endowments in occupied al-Quds made the announcement yesterday following weeks of extreme restrictions forced on worshippers heading to one of Islam's holiest sites. Israeli occupation forces barricaded several gates leading to the Mosque from its vicinity and the Old City; a practice that has been heavily employed since October 7.

Israeli occupation forces also physically and verbally assaulted several worshippers heading for the Friday prayers. Others were also physically assaulted while praying near Bab al-Asbat. A woman and a young man were also beaten unconscious, according to locals. The IOF eventually detained the two.

Local sources revealed that Israeli forces also stopped several citizens and searched them, denying them entry to the Old City, which leads to al-Aqsa Mosque.

It is worth noting that Palestinians living in the occupied West Bank are required to hold permits, issued by Israeli authorities, allowing them to travel to al-Aqsa Mosque to pray, despite the site being a symbol for Palestinians and Muslims around the world.
