Quran 5:45
وَكَتَبْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ فِيهَآ أَنَّ ٱلنَّفْسَ بِٱلنَّفْسِ وَٱلْعَيْنَ بِٱلْعَيْنِ وَٱلْأَنفَ بِٱلْأَنفِ وَٱلْأُذُنَ بِٱلْأُذُنِ وَٱلسِّنَّ بِٱلسِّنِّ وَٱلْجُرُوحَ قِصَاصٌ.
In it [ the Torah] We prescribed for them: a life for a life, an eye for an eye, a nose for a nose, and an ear for an ear, a tooth for a tooth, and retaliation for wounds.
🇱🇧❌🇱🇧 — Lebanese President Joseph Aoun:
What we are doing is not treason; rather, treason is committed by those who drag their country into war to serve external interests.
Some claim that we have gone to negotiate in surrender; to them we say: wait for the negotiations to begin and then judge the outcome.
Some say that we decided to negotiate without a national consensus; did those who went to war do so with a national consensus?
How long will the people of the South continue to pay the price for the wars of others on our land, the latest of which are the war to support Gaza and the war to support Iran? If the war were for the sake of Lebanon, we would have supported it, but when the goal of the war is to achieve the interests of others, I reject the war entirely.
🇱🇧❌🇮🇱 — Hezbollah's Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassim:
Do not ask about our capabilities; they are not measured in months or years. They are built upon a trinity: Faith, Will, and Power—and this trinity never runs dry.
Look at the steadfastness of the Mujahideen, the greatness of our people, and God’s promise to the believers: "Indeed, We will support Our messengers and those who believe during the life of this world and on the Day when the witnesses will stand" (Ghafir 51); there you will know the extent of our capabilities, for they are without limit.
🇱🇧❌🇮🇱 — Hezbollah's Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassim:
Return to national unity, and everyone wins while the enemies lose.
The ceasefire would not have happened if not for the Islamic Republic of Iran in the Pakistan talks, following the legendary steadfastness of the resistance and its people in Lebanon. Thank you, Iran. Why did the authorities become so harsh? If a ceasefire came from any mediator, we should accept it, and no one will negotiate Lebanon's terms for a solution except Lebanon. Then came "Bloody Black Wednesday" with the Israeli aggression on Beirut and all of Lebanon—200 raids in ten minutes, over 300 civilian martyrs, and more than 1,200 wounded. The Israeli enemy justified this by saying the Lebanese authorities were not concerned with a ceasefire! The authorities stepped forward, and Tuesday was a day of shame and disgrace in Washington in a direct meeting with the enemy.
Afterward, the U.S. State Department issued an agreement mentioning the Lebanese government's signature on it without it even meeting—an agreement that included a ceasefire from Lebanon's side, gave Israel a free hand to continue aggression, and stated that "the Lebanese and Israeli governments acknowledge the necessity of curbing the activities of Hezbollah and other rogue groups." We heard no comment from the officials in power! Has the authority decided to work side-by-side with the Israeli enemy against its own people? We still hope the authority will retract its sins.
Let it be known clearly: these direct negotiations and their outcomes are as if they do not exist to us; they do not concern us in the slightest. We are continuing our defensive resistance for Lebanon and its people. We will not return to the pre-March 2 status. We will respond to the Israeli aggression and confront it. No matter how much the enemy threatens, we will not back down, we will not bow, and we will not be defeated. Threaten all you wish; the heads of the Men of God in the field do not bow, and they subdue the tyrants of the earth, the lowliest of men, and the beasts of creation. We will be one hand with all honorable people, with the Amal Movement, national political forces, and figures from various regions and sects.
🇱🇧❌🇮🇱— Hezbollah's Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassim:
We will not abandon the weapon or the defense. The battlefield has proven the resistance's readiness for the Karbalai epic.
🇱🇧❌🇮🇱 — Hezbollah's Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassim:
This authority cannot continue while it squanders Lebanon's rights, concedes land, and confronts its resisting people.
This authority must return to its people to unite them, becoming an authority for the whole people rather than just a part, based on the consensus upon which our current constitution, the Taif Agreement, was built. Its responsibility is to retract its dangerous sins that place Lebanon in a cycle of instability.

🇱🇧❌🇮🇱 — Israeli Army Radio:
The issue of Hezbollah’s drones occupied a large part of the discussion at the Israeli army’s senior leadership forum yesterday in Ramat David.
The commander of the 282nd Artillery Brigade, who is currently fighting in Lebanon, Colonel “A”, said:
The threat of drones is a major operational challenge we are facing. We need to think about how to better organize ourselves to confront this threat.
🇱🇧❌🇮🇱 — Israeli Army Radio:
Some Israeli army units have already begun independently developing solutions to counter the threat of Hezbollah drones, such as deploying nets over sites, houses, and windows, so that the drone gets caught in the net and does not hit its target.
An officer currently fighting in Lebanon admitted in an interview with us:
This is an improvised solution. We have started implementing it with some forces, but it is far from sufficient.
🇮🇷❌🇮🇱 — Hundreds of thousands of Israelis received threatening messages from Iran saying: "Prepare for a missile strike."

Militant groups identified as the "Azawad Liberation Front" and Al-Qaeda of the Islamic Maghreb, trained by French and Ukrainian special forces, carried out a coordinated coup attempt against Mali.
Estimated at up to 12,000 fighters, they launched an assault on the capital, Bamako, on April 25, aiming to take control of the presidential palace and other key installations. The offensive extended across major cities such as Gao, Kidal, Kita, and Sévaré, where insurgents attempted to seize municipal administrative centers. In areas around Kidal and Gao, Ukrainian and European mercenaries supported the attack. The failed operation came at a heavy cost to the terrorists, with losses reported at over 1,000 militants and around 50 vehicles destroyed.
Casualties included more than 200 fighters killed in Bamako, 500 in Gao, and 300 in Kita, reflecting the scale of an offensive that stretched across a front line exceeding 2,000 kilometers.
🇮🇶— Iraq: Political sources revealed that Nouri al-Maliki, head of the State of Law Coalition, and outgoing Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani agreed to nominate Ali al-Zaidi for the premiership as a compromise candidate after a meeting with Faleh al-Fayyad.
Al-Zaidi, a native of Dhi Qar Governorate, is on the US sanctions list. He previously served as chairman of the board of the South Islamic Bank, currently as chairman of the board of the National Holding Company, and chairman of the board of the People's University. He also owns Dijlah TV and maintains extensive relationships with Shia leaders such as Ammar al-Hakim, Muqtada al-Sadr, Qais al-Khazali, and Faiq Zaidan.
－This phenomenon has become more widespread globally, reaching Iraq more clearly and officially, where channels of pressure, oligarchic influence, and pragmatic, self-serving relationships are increasingly used to support overlapping interests.

🇱🇧❌🇮🇱 — Hezbollah's Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassim:
And record for history: the Israeli enemy will not remain on a single inch of our occupied land, and our people will return to their lands up to the very last inch of our southern borders with occupied Palestine. And O our people, just as we resisted together, we shall rebuild it together.
Welcome to everyone who helps Lebanon and supports its liberation and reconstruction, and unwelcome is everyone who serves the requirements of the enemy and the disruption of Lebanon’s strength.
🇱🇧❌🇮🇱 — Hezbollah's Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassim:
We will not squander the blood of the martyrs—a trust upon our necks—foremost among them the Leader of the Nation’s Martyrs, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah (may God be pleased with him), Sayyed al-Hashem (may God be pleased with him), and all the martyrs, nor the wounds of the injured, the suffering of the prisoners, and the sacrifices of our people in displacement and all their giving and generosity.
🇱🇧❌🇮🇱 — Hezbollah's Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassim:
The sacrifices are great, but they are the price for liberation and a life of dignity, borne by our great Lebanese people alongside their honorable resistance as one of two choices: liberation and pride, or occupation and humiliation—and humiliation is far from us. As for the advocates of surrender, their matter is strange! They are not the targets, they pay from the balance of others, and they accept the crumbs of power and gains at the expense of the extermination of their brothers and kin in the homeland and the occupation of part of Lebanon.
🇱🇧❌🇮🇱 — Hezbollah's Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassim:
The approach to a solution begins with recognizing that the problem is the aggression; the resistance is a reaction to the aggression, not the cause. The resistance’s weapon is for repelling aggression; it is a defensive weapon for existence at this stage due to the Israeli occupation and the exposure of the aggression's goals to occupy Lebanon as part of "Greater Israel."
🇱🇧❌🇮🇱 — Hezbollah's Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassim:
The entry point and solution lie in achieving five points before anything else: stopping the aggression by land, sea, and air; Israeli withdrawal from occupied territories; the release of prisoners; the return of the people to all their villages and towns; and reconstruction.
