BREAKING
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.
Sheikh Qassem: The government’s latest decision [on the disarmament of the Resistance] is non-charter-based, and if the government continues down this path, it is not faithful to Lebanon’s sovereignty.

The Movement of Society for Peace (MSP) organized a solidarity stand in Algeria's capital to mark the first anniversary of Operation al-Aqsa Flood, in support of the Palestinian cause and condemning the Israeli occupation's crimes against the Palestinian people, as reported by the official Algeria Press Service.

The event, held under the slogan In Support of the October 7, 2023, Epic, took place on Saturday and saw the participation of the movement's leader and its senior officials, along with parliamentarians, representatives of political parties, civil society organizations, and national and trade union figures.

Prominent in attendance were Mousa Abu Marzouk, a senior Hamas official, and the movement's representative in Algeria, Yousef Hamdan.

Participants raised Palestinian flags and chanted slogans in support of Palestine and the Palestinian cause. They affirmed their "unconditional solidarity" with the Palestinian people, who have been facing a campaign of genocide for more than a year. They also voiced their support for the Palestinians' legitimate struggle and their right to resist in pursuit of liberating their land and establishing an independent state.

Hamas: 'Israel' now rejected in region, globally

Abdelali Hassani Sherif, head of the MSP, emphasized that the Palestinian cause is central to the movement, which fully supports "the Palestinian people fighting to liberate their occupied land." He highlighted the significant sacrifices made by the Palestinian people, including thousands of martyrs, with particular recognition for the leaders of the resistance in Palestine and Lebanon.

Mousa Abu Marzouk praised Algeria's unwavering support for Palestine, stating, "After 70 years of occupation, there is now a conviction that resistance is the only path to liberating Palestine."

"The Palestinian people have paid a heavy price during the ongoing Zionist aggression for more than a year, but they have also achieved notable gains," he said. "Chief among these is the cessation of normalization, as this entity is now not only rejected in the region but by most countries globally, including the UN Security Council and the General Assembly."

In related events, thousands of people demonstrated in Tunisia, Morocco, Senegal, and other countries to protest "the international silence on the genocide being carried out by Israel in Gaza."

Tunisia

In Tunisia, the Tunisian Association for the Support of Palestine called for demonstrations in solidarity with Palestine and the Palestinian cause. 

Mohamed el-Bashir Khodari, the executive director of the Supporters of Palestine Association, stated, "This is the 52nd weekly protest we have organized since the beginning of al-Aqsa Flood, and we will continue to support the Palestinian people." He reaffirmed their solidarity with the resistance forces in Gaza, Lebanon, Iraq, and Yemen.

October 7 demonstrations

On October 7, and to commemorate the start of the Israeli onslaught on Gaza, demonstrators across the globe voiced their condemnation of Israeli aggression and showed solidarity with the people of Gaza, who are enduring unprecedented attacks on both civilians and infrastructure, compounded by inhumane conditions under siege. The brutal Israeli aggression has also spread into Lebanon, further escalating tensions in the region.

Thousands gathered for the "Free Palestine" march, which commenced at Russell Square in London and progressed toward Whitehall, highlighting the ongoing calls for justice and an immediate ceasefire. 

London hosted a significant demonstration in solidarity with Palestine and Lebanon, where protesters called on the UK government to halt arms sales to "Israel". 

Meanwhile, in France, members of the La France Insoumise movement led a pro-Palestine demonstration, reflecting the growing international momentum for Palestinian rights and highlighting the urgent calls for justice and an end to the war in the region.

Soldiers of the Greek Army took part in demonstrations opposing imperialist wars, calling for Greece's complete disengagement from the violent actions of "Israel", the US, and the EU in West Asia.

Many more marches and protests emerged in New York, Tokyo, Rome, Berlin, and Sydney, in a strong show of rejection of the international community's inaction toward the war crimes and atrocities being committed in Lebanon and Gaza. 

Moreover, the largest national march in support of Palestine and Lebanon kicked off in the Moroccan capital of Rabat on the first anniversary of Operation al-Aqsa Flood.

Several Moroccan organizations and political parties called for participation in the solidarity march with Gaza on Sunday, including the Progressive, Socialist, and Justice and Development parties, along with various unions and civil organizations.

During the march, which passed through Mohammed V Street and Bab El Had Square, demonstrators raised the Palestinian and Lebanese flags, carried the Palestinian koufiyyeh, and chanted slogans condemning Israeli crimes against the Palestinian and Lebanese people.

The march was held under the slogan "Al-Aqsa Flood until the Liberation of Palestine and the Collapse of Normalization."
