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.

Spain's own FC Barcelona secured on Saturday their 14th Spanish Super Cup after defeating Real Madrid, pushing themselves further into the top after marking yet another record when it came to how many times they've lifted the cup.

Barcelona dominated the game against their long-term rivals, with Gavi, Robert Lewandowski, and Pedri earning them a 3-1 win against the royal club.

Taking advantage of Madrid's mistakes, FCB took the lead at 33' after Real defender Antonio Ruediger passed across his own area to Barca's Sergio Busquets, who ensured that Gavi ended up all alone inside the box, allowing him to give the Catalans an early edge against their foes.

Additionally, Lewandowski extended the lead at 45' during a rebound push that saw the Polish played going through the left into Real's side before scoring in favor of his team.

Meanwhile, Madrid had no shots on target in the first half, largely dominated by the FCB, before spending the majority of the second half in panic mode, trying both to avoid a bigger defeat and hoping for a Remontada.

However, in the midst of their panic, Madrid slipped up again, allowing Barcelona to score. Substitute Dani Ceballos lost the ball in midfield, and Gavi caught it before passing over to Pedri who shot at point blank, securing a third goal for his team.

Real managed to sneak in a consolation goal, with Karim Benzema striking at Barcelona's goal on the rebound after ter Stegen denied his first attempt at scoring.
