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 Russians said they were expecting the UNMIK to give a "harsh and unambiguous" assessment of this decision.

The Russian Embassy in Serbia considered Friday that Kosovo's Pristina authorities declaring a Russian employee of the UN mission persona non grata is a provocation against Russia and the UN.

Earlier, Kosovo's Foreign Minister Dominika Gervalla-Schwarz declared a Russian employee of the United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK) persona non grata, claiming that the employee was involved in some "harmful activities."

"We consider Pristina's decision yet another anti-Russian and anti-UN provocation carried out to curry favor with Western mentors," the embassy expressed.

The Russian embassy added that it expected the decision to have zero legal consequences "based on international law and UNSC Resolution 1244, which is key to the resolution of conflict in Kosovo."

Expecting harsh and unambiguous assessment

The Russians said they were expecting the UNMIK to give a "harsh and unambiguous" assessment of this decision and called on the regional UN offices to ensure the safety of Russian employees.

The United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244 was adopted on June 10, 1999, at the end of the Kosovo conflict.

It authorized an international civil and military presence in the former Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and established UNMIK in order to prevent further hostilities.
