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.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent in southern Lebanon offered an insight on the strategic Israeli sites targeted by Hezbollah in occupied Haifa and the Gush Dan area, in occupied Palestine, on Saturday. 

The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon has gradually expanded its scope of attack on Israeli military sites and infrastructure under the "Khaibar Series of Operations." These mostly long-range rocket and drone attacks, come in response to the Israeli massacres targeting civilians and commanders in Lebanon.  

The Haifa Technical Base

The first of these Israeli sites that was added to the Resistance's target list is the Haifa Technical Base, which came under two different precision-rocket attacks on Saturday.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent provided the following information on the site. 

The Haifa Technical Base is considered a major center for defense-related research and development.

The base focuses on developing advanced technologies in defense. This includes missile systems, aviation technology, military communications systems, artificial intelligence, and other advanced technologies.

Troops serving in the base collaborate with Israeli weapons manufacturers, such as Rafael and Elbit, to develop defense solutions that meet the needs of the Israeli regime's military.

The Malam Military Industrial Complex

The Malam military-industrial complex, located 132 km south of Lebanon's border with occupied Palestine, was the second strategic site targeted by Hezbollah on Saturday. 

Al Mayadeen's correspondent provided the following information on the site:

The factory specializes in producing components for the following crucial systems:

- The Iron Dome, which is used to defend Israeli sites against rocket artillery shells, among other weapons.

- The Patriot air defense system, which is deployed against enemy aircraft and a wide array of missiles. 

- David's Sling, which is an advanced air defense system designed to protect against ballistic missiles and other aerial threats.

The corporation also develops new technologies for missiles, aiming to improve accuracy and operational range. The complex is strategic to Israeli security, as it works on developing defensive capabilities and providing anti-air systems that eliminate threats to military and non-military infrastructure. 

Malam cooperates with a collection of international and Israeli defense companies to develop systems for Israeli occupation forces. Its contribution to the Israeli regime's production of weaponry is estimated at 10%-25%.
