— 🇱🇧 S.G. of Hezbollah, Sheikh Naim Qassem, main points of the speech:

– Israel assassinated our media spokesman, Mohammad Afif, in civilian clothes, in the middle of Beirut. After such actions, the response must come in the middle of Tel Aviv.

– Wherever the Israeli enemy advances, the Islamic Resistance confronts it, and we will expell them.

– We estimated that the battle on Hezbollah's first line of defense would take 15 days, but due to the strength and determination of the fighters, it has now been almost two months.

– Hezbollah is not a regular army, its objective is not to stop the enemy's advance, but to cause as many casualties as possible, forcing gradual retreats.

– Any ceasefire negotiations must adhere to two demands: The total cessation of hostilities by Israel, and the preservation of Lebanese sovereignity. (Note: This would be a return to the Status Quo Ante Bellum.)

– During the ceasefire negotiations, we will continue to fight, and the fight will escalate based on the conditions on the battlefield, independent and seperate from the ongoing negotiations.

– Hezbollah is fighting side to side and shoulder to shoulder with the Amal movement, we are brothers in one nation.

– Hezbollah is prepared for a very long war, a war of attrition, and we can continue at the current pace for a long time.

— ❗️🇷🇺/🇺🇦/🇬🇧 BREAKING: In the past two hours, UK-made 'Storm Shadow' air-launched cruise missiles were fired by Ukraine at targets in Russia's Kursk region

This comes after Ukraine launched at least six US-made ATACMS missiles at targets in Russia's Bryansk region yesterday, marking yet another significant escalation in the Russia-NATO standoff.

Several embassies, from both Western and Eastern nations, have now evacuated their buildings in Kiev and called upon their citizens to evacuate.

If it was actually an ICBM as multiple outlets are reporting, this would mark the first ever use of an ICBM in the history of warfare.

— 🇮🇱/🇵🇸 NEW: The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity, including using hunger as a weapon in Gaza.

The ICC's decision means that its 124 member states will be obligated to arrest Netanyahu and Gallant if they enter their territory. However, it is doubtful that most of these countries will honor this obligation.

— 🔴🇱🇧 Statement by the Operations Room of the Islamic Resistance:

Following the clash with an Israeli force in Tyre Harfa and the destruction of an armored vehicle:

Our fighters monitored the infiltration of an Israeli unit into a house on the western side of Tyre Harfa. We opened fire using medium-range machine guns, targeting the house directly, which damaged the structure and the enemy forces inside.

An enemy unit, supported by an armored vehicle, attempted to evacuate their casualties. The armored vehicle was targeted with direct fire, leading to its destruction. Our fighters continued combing the area. (Statement No. 17 issued at 7:00 PM yesterday).

Hours later, the enemy army admitted that four soldiers were killed and several wounded, while Hebrew media reported six soldiers killed in the ambush.

Among the dead were an officer and a soldier from the 13th Battalion (Golani), a soldier from the 'Maglan' unit, and an archaeologist accompanying the force, according to the Israeli army.
