BREAKING
Russian Ministry of Defense: 37 Ukrainian drones destroyed in 4 hours over regions of Russia and the Black Sea.
Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.

The Kazakh special services detained a foreign intelligence agent who was planning to assassinate Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, the National Security Committee (NSC) of the Republic of Kazakhstan said on Sunday. 

"On March 25, 2022, in the city of Nur-Sultan, the NSC counterintelligence detained a foreign intelligence agent… who was planning an assassination attempt on the President of Kazakhstan and a number of high-ranking civil servants," the NSC press service said in a statement.

A foreign-made sniper rifle, drugs, and a large amount of money were seized from the suspect during the search, the release stated. 

During the preliminary investigation, the suspect admitted to planning terrorist acts against members of special and law enforcement agencies and to have worked on promoting anti-Russia propaganda in Kazakhstan by publishing relevant materials on social networks, "on the instructions and in the interests of a foreign state."

Riots started in Kazakhstan when thousands of demonstrators took to the street to protest against the surging gas prices in the Central Asian nation. Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev then declared a state of emergency in the west of the country and Almaty.

The protests shortly took a violent turn, and President Tokayev appealed to the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) for help in quelling protests across the country, which he said were led by "terrorist gangs".
