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?

The Prisoners and Ex-Prisoners Affairs Committee and the Palestinian Prisoners' Club have confirmed the martyrdom of prisoner Muhammad al-Sabbar, the eighth Palestinian to die in Israeli prisons since October 7.

The Committee and the Palestinian Prisoner's Club confirmed that Muhammad Ahmad Ratib Al-Sabbar, a 21-year-old from Al-Dhaheriya, Al-Khalil,  was martyred in the Israeli “Ofer” prison

Al-Sabbar had been detained since May 2022 and has been deprived of medical treatment in the Israeli prison as he was suffering from health issues related to the stomach and intestines which required him to need treatment and specific dietary needs.

A statement by both committees indicated that although he was arrested nearly 2 years ago, the brutality of the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) was multiplied after October 7 and Al-Sabbar was denied basic treatment.

According to the Commission and the Prisoners Club, the accounts conveyed by recently released prisoners, testimonies from lawyers, and information from various sources regarding prisoners who were martyred after October 7 all validate that torture and severe physical assault against prisoners at the hands of the Israeli occupation army's repression and special units directly led to the prisoners' martyrdom.

Al-Sabbar has become the second Palestinian martyred in occupation prisons since the beginning of 2024 and the 8th since Operation Al-Aqsa Flood was initiated on October 7, 2023.

With al Sabbar's martyrdom, the number of Palestinian prisoners martyred in occupation prisons since 1967 has risen to 245.

In January, the Israeli occupation prisons administration assassinated prisoner Abdulrahman Bassem al-Bahsh, 23, from Nablus in "Megiddo" Prison.

In a statement, the committee and Prisoner's Club stressed that al-Bahsh's assassination confirms the relentless continuation of the Israeli occupation, without any hindrance or consideration, in carrying out further targeted assassination operations against prisoners and detainees in its prisons, coupled with systematic torture and abuse, with the explicit intent of murdering Palestinian prisoners.

Seven Palestinian prisoners have been martyred in Israeli occupation prisons since October 7, including three in "Megiddo". The prisoners are Omar Draghmeh, Arafat Hamdan, Majed Zaqoul, Abdul Rahman Mar'i, Thaer Abu Asab, and al-Bahsh, in addition to a fourth martyr whose identity is still unknown.
