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.

Palestinian Resistance ready to respond to aggression with full force

Earlier, the Joint Room of the Palestinian Resistance factions confirmed its readiness to respond to any aggression that the Israeli occupation would carry out against Gaza.

"We affirm the readiness of the resistance to confront and respond with all force to any aggression, and to defend our people in all their places of existence," the Joint Room underlined in a statement, in light of the Israeli occupation's threats against the Resistance and the people in the Gaza Strip.

The Resistance factions warned the Israeli occupation against attacking the Palestinian people, calling on "the criminal enemy to stop its savage aggression against Al-Aqsa Mosque" and the worshipers stationed inside it and to "stop the farce of exporting its internal crises towards our people and our sanctities."

The Palestinian statements came amid prevailing tension at the border between Lebanon and occupied Palestine after the Israeli occupation military said that 34 rockets were launched on Thursday from southern Lebanon on occupied Al-Jalil.
