Sheikh Qassem: Let’s first see “Israel” adhere to the agreement, then we can talk.

Sheikh Qassem: The ceasefire agreement applies exclusively to the area south of the Litani River, and this is stated five times in the agreement.

Sheikh Qassem: Those who have the most honorable people fear no one in the world, and those who have the most honorable people stand firm while cowards flee.
