BREAKING
Sheikh Qassem: On the path of Resistance and sacrifice, we offered Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah. His martyrdom serves as a beacon that guides our paths to ensure that our Resistance remains strong.
Sheikh Qassem: We say to the servants of "Israel", return to your patriotism so that we can work together.
Sheikh Naim Qassem: If some of them in Lebanon cooperate with the Israeli enemy, this means that they are putting stability on the brink of collapse.
Sheikh Qassem: We are on the side of righteousness, not subjugation. We will continue to resist in defense of Lebanon and its people, preventing the enemy from realizing its ambitions.
Sheikh Qassem: The Lebanese state must take more action and confront Israeli violations with greater force.
Sheikh Qassem: "Israel" is now trying to end the resistance through its continued pressure and aggression, but through politics.
Sheikh Qassem: The Resistance prohibited "Israel" from imposing humiliating agreements on Lebanon and attaining its territorial ambitions in it.
Sheikh Qassem: The Resistance has been deterring the Israeli enemy over the past years, and it put an end to the Israeli plans to progressively annex Lebanese territory.
Sheikh Qassem: "Israel" has violated the ceasefire agreement more than 3,000 times since it was announced.
Sheikh Qassem: Netanyahu will not be able to strip the Palestinian people of their rights, for they have sacrificed all that they could to preserve their honor.

Shooting broke out between patrol guards on the border between Kyrgystan and Tajikstan on Wednesday, according to Russian news agencies, citing the Kyrgyz border service. 

Although recent years have witnessed some back and forth on the border between the two countries, with the latest incident following a round of fighting on Tuesday between two other former Soviet states, Azerbaijan and Armenia. The recent clashes between the two have been the most lethal since 2020's battle in Nagorno-Karabakh.

According to the Kyrgyz border service, Tajik guards opened fire after being asked to relinquish "combat positions" on the border, while Kyrgyz guards used weapons to respond to the request, according to Russia's RIA news agency. 

In January, Kyrgyzstan accused Tajikistan of firing on its troops and deploying forces at their contested border.

Kyrgyzstan's national security committee said Tajikistan used grenade launchers and mortar shells in the exchanges, and four Kyrgyz soldiers suffered shrapnel wounds according to a health ministry spokesperson. Media in Tajikistan said the clashes resulted in one death and 11 injuries, three civilians, and eight officers. Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan then announced they had reached a ceasefire.
 
Last year’s shooting between the two countries resulted in more than 50 deaths amid fears of a wider conflict erupting. This latest round of violence came after Tajik citizens blocked a road that passes through Tajik territory and links two Kyrgyz cities.
