Hezbollah Will Neither Abandon Resistance Nor Let Lebanon Return to Time of Weakness: Sheikh Daamoush
Deputy Chief of Hezbollah Executive Council Sheikh Ali Daamoush stressed that the Resistance Party rejects Lebanon's subjection to US-Israeli dictates and threats to strike Beirut's airport as well as vital facilities.
Delivering Friday sermon, Sheikh Daamoush called on the Lebanese government to tackle the Iranian flights file as it pertains to Lebanon's sopvereignty and dignity.
'US-Israeli ban on the landing of the Iranian flights at Beirut's airport confiscates the Lebanese decision, blatantly intervenes in Lebanon's international relations, and paves way for more dictates which may never end,' his eminence said.
Sheikh Daamoush also underlined Hezbollah would neither accept Israeli occupation of even an inch of the Lebanese territory nor abandon the resistance path which would be the response to the Zionist aggression.
Hezbollah official underscored that Hezbollah will never let Lebanon return to the time of weakness, stressing that the nation has the right to defend itself by all means and at whatever cost.
'We are powerful thanks to our faith, will, determination and the bravery of our resistance, army and people.'
Sheikh Daamoush also affirmed, 'We are invited on Sunday to attend the funeral of an exceptional, historic leader in a civilized scene.'
The funeral will be neither a referendum to measure the popular support for the resistance whose role obtains legitimacy when the occupation exists, nor a way to restore prestige because it has not been lost, according to Sheikh Daamoush.
Sheikh Daamoush confirmed that the funeral will be attended by the loyal supporters of the resistance who will reiterate commitment to the path of the martyred leader who spent his honorable life defending Lebanon, its sovereignty and national dignity, achieved victories, thwarted the enemy's goals, held the cause of Palestine and the causes of the nation, and ascended as a martyr all the way to Al-Quds, truly deserving the title: Master of the Martyrs of the Nation.
The day when Hezbollah martyred leaders Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah and Sayyed Hashem Safeiddine will be laid to rest won't be forgotten by the free people of the world, the committee tasked with organizing the funeral announced on Friday.
In a press conference, the committee's Head Hussein Fadlallah tackled the final preparations of the funeral held on Sunday at Camille Chamoun Sports City Stadium.

General Saree Announces Ben Gurion Strike, Raises Haifa-for-Hodeida Port Formula
In support of the oppressed Palestinian people and their fighters, and in rejection of the genocide committed by the Zionist enemy against Gaza Strip, the Missile Force of the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a qualitative military operation targeting Lod (Ben Gurion) Airport in the occupied Jaffa (Tel Aviv) area with two ballistic missiles—one hypersonic of the type 'Palestine-2' and the other of the type 'Thulfiqar', according to a statement read by the military spokesman General Yahya Saree General Saree indicated that one of the missiles struck Lod (Ben Gurion) Airport directly, and the interception systems failed to counter it. 'By the grace of Allah, the operation achieved its objective successfully, forcing millions of occupying Zionists to flee to shelters and bringing air traffic at the airport to a halt.' The Yemeni Armed Forces affirmed that the ban on air traffic to and from the mentioned airport remains in effect, and renew their warning to the remaining companies to immediately cease all flights to and from the airport. In response to the aggression on Al-Hodeidah, the Yemeni Armed Forces warned all companies and various entities against continuing operations with the port of Haifa, which has now been included in the target bank. 'Let the criminal enemy know that Yemen—trusting in Allah, relying on Him, and dependent upon Him—is steadfast and unyielding, loyal and never neglectful, retreating, or treacherous. It is bold and unwavering, proud and humble only before Allah, like its towering, immovable mountains—unshaken by storms and undeterred by tempests. Let the criminal enemy await more and more from us in support and backing of the truthful and loyal brothers in Gaza—Gaza of pride, dignity, sacrifice, and martyrdom. We continue to support and aid them until the aggression against them stops and the siege is lifted.' Meanwhile, President of Yemen's Supreme Political Council, Mahdi Al-Mashat affirmed that the Yemeni response to the Zionist aggression will come from different directions, and the Yemeni strikes on the Zionist enemy will be calculated, effective, and dynamic—ensuring our forces retain superiority and control over the battlefield. 'For the safety of embassies near legitimate targets of our forces in occupied Jaffa, they must compel the enemy's government to relocate them at a safe distance. If the enemy's government does not comply with such requests from any embassy, we advise closure and departure so the enemy does not put them at risk.' The foreign ministries of embassies located in the Zionist entity may contact our Foreign Ministry in Sana'a to confirm whether their surroundings are free from any legitimate targets of our forces, he added. 'We will instruct our Foreign Ministry to inform any country about the status of its embassy in the Zionist entity.' The features of Yemeni missiles previously announced have not yet been used, and coordination is essential before their deployment, Al-Mashat maintained. The Israeli occupation military launched a strike on Tuesday targeting Hodeidah Port, a key coastal facility in western Yemen. This marks the first time Israeli naval forces have engaged in attacks on Yemeni ports, as reported by Israeli media, distinguishing this operation from previous strikes in the region.

UNIFIL statement on patrol obstruction Hallusiyat al Tahta
The following is statement issued by UNIFIL: 'This morning, UNIFIL peacekeepers conducting a planned patrol coordinated with the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) were confronted by a group of individuals in civilian clothing in the vicinity of Hallusiyat al Tahta, in southern Lebanon. The group attempted to obstruct the patrol using aggressive means, including throwing stones at the peacekeepers. One peacekeeper was struck, fortunately, no injuries were reported. In response, UNIFIL personnel employed non-lethal measures to ensure the safety of both the patrol members and those present. The LAF was promptly informed and arrived on the scene shortly thereafter. The situation was quickly brought under control, and the patrol was able to proceed. Freedom of movement is a core requirement for the implementation of UNIFIL's mandate. This includes the ability to operate independently and impartially, as outlined in UN Security Council Resolution 1701. Any restriction on this freedom — while conducting operational activities with or without LAF — constitutes a violation of that resolution. It is unacceptable that UNIFIL peacekeepers continue to be targeted. UNIFIL calls on the Lebanese authorities to take all necessary measures to ensure that its peacekeepers can carry out their duties without obstruction or threat.'
