BREAKING
Sheikh Qassem: Resistance is a source of power for Lebanon that must be preserved.
Sheikh Qassem: "Israel" must implement the agreement as Lebanon has already done so, and any new accord would amount to absolving it and opening the door to further attacks.
Sheikh Qassem: We do not wish to assume anyone's role; those accusing us of this must cease their accusations.
Sheikh Qassem: We will recover our lands through national solidarity; Resistance's goal is national liberation, while enemy goal is occupation.
Sheikh Qassem: Protection of sovereignty protects Lebanon. It is in real danger because of US belligerence, greedy Israeli expansion.
Qassem to Lebanese people: We are not asking for support but for us not to be stabbed in the back in the back or for some to serve Israeli interests; government is primary party responsible for [preservation of] sovereignty.
Sheikh Qassem: "Israel" can occupy, but it cannot persist in occupation of our land.
Sheikh Qassem: Intimidation will not change our stance of resistance and steadfastness. We are not advocates of surrender or defeat, and we will never accept it.
Sheikh Qassem: Where does US stand regarding enemy's unjustified assassination of a government worker and other civilian martyrs?
Sheikh Qassem: Is the Lebanese Army's defense of its land and citizens an accusation [leveled against it]? Where does US stand regarding the enemy's killing of civilians and constant destruction?

    Hundreds of People Rally Against US Military Presence in Niger - Reports

Nigerien news portal Air Info Agadez reported on Sunday that hundreds of protesters gathered near a US military base in the city of Agadez today to protest its presence in the country.

"We, the people of Agadez and all of Niger, are convinced that the presence of any foreign military base on our territory cannot be conducive to our security and constitutes a form of neocolonialism," one of the protesters was quoted as saying by the news website. 

🇳🇪🚨 "Ici c'est Agadez, pas Washington, armée US partez".

1-2) Une mobilisation a eu lieu ce matin à Agadez pour réclamer le départ des militaires américains de la base 201, présents depuis 2013.

The situation escalated last month when Col. Maj. Amadou Abdramane, a spokesperson for Niger's ruling junta, publicly denounced the US and terminated the "counterterrorism" partnership between the two countries.

Abdramane cited violations of Niger's constitution as the basis for revoking the agreement that allowed US troops and civilian Defense Department employees to operate within Niger since 2012.

Niger's Interior Ministry has recently stated that the US had committed to presenting a plan for the "disengagement" of troops from the West African country following Niamey's termination of its military agreement with Washington.

However, the full withdrawal has yet to occur.
