BREAKING
Russian Ministry of Defense: 37 Ukrainian drones destroyed in 4 hours over regions of Russia and the Black Sea.
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.

Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez Parrilla stated on Wednesday that collaboration within the BRICS framework generates fresh global opportunities for countries.

During a meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, Parrilla said, "I must say that we work very carefully within this group and we always try to use all the opportunities we have to cooperate with the BRICS group. During our time there, we have also done our work, and we believe that working in the group opens up new opportunities on a global scale."
 
For his part, Lavrov thanked the Cuban foreign minister for his participation in the BRICS foreign ministers' meetings in Russia, adding, "We see great benefit from this kind of events involving countries of the world majority - Africa, Latin America, Asia… Our presidents define tasks regularly, and today our duty is to see how we will improve and concretize activities in all areas of our cooperation."
 
Earlier this week, Lavrov opened the two-day BRICS foreign ministers' meeting as its chair in the Russian city of Nizhny Novgorod from June 10 to 11.
