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.

It appears that embarrassment is further piling up for the IOF after the former head of the Military Intelligence Division in the IOF Tamir Hayman acknowledged: "We exaggerated in talking about the importance of Al-Shifa Hospital to the Hamas movement."

In another embarrassing turn of events, Times of Israel's military correspondent Emmanuel Fabian reported on Sunday that the tunnels that were alleged by the IOF to be operated by Hamas turned out to be "Weird looking septic tank/concrete cable duct for power generators/definitely not a Hamas tunnel."

On Saturday, an Israeli forces spokesman claimed that a tunnel was discovered underneath Al-Shifa Hospital. 

On the same day, CNN issued a report stating that there were numerous discrepancies that surfaced from a video that was released by the IOF on November 15, showcasing a tour of alleged Palestinian resistance weaponry reportedly found at Al-Shifa hospital.

In a separate report, CNN said that there was no concrete evidence of the existence of tunnels under the medical complex and that nothing is indicating that the IOF uncovered a multi-level tunnel with underground chambers.

Israeli news reports later confirmed that the extensive propaganda that ensued following the IOF's invasion of Al-Shifa had caused disappointment among Israeli settlers, who believed that "Israel" would eliminate the resistance.

Israeli media noted that the leadership of the Palestinian resistance remains cohesive even after the incursion into Shifa Hospital, and its fighters continue to launch rockets toward settlements in the Gaza envelope and towards "Tel Aviv."
