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.

South Sudan's Acting Foreign Minister, Deng Dau Malek, confirmed on Wednesday that Sudan's army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan has agreed to speak with the RSF General Mohamed Hamdan Daglo or Hemedti, but no location has been specified. 

According to the South Sudanese foreign ministry on Monday, President Salva Kiir contacted both parties to extend the 72-hour ceasefire beyond Wednesday to make way for peace negotiations. 

Malek told Sky News Arabia that al-Burhan was requested to hold a meeting by the president with either Hemedti or his representative.

"Burhan agreed in principle to the possibility of holding talks with Daglo … Our president is trying to reach Daglo to offer the possibility of meeting with Burhan," Malek was quoted saying. 

The Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have exchanged blame for violating the 72-hour truce to open up humanitarian corridors. The RSF accused the Sudanese army of bombing its positions in the presidential palace in Khartoum.

After earlier attempts for a ceasefire in Sudan had failed, the US Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced last Monday that Sudan's warring generals have agreed to a three-day ceasefire beginning Tuesday.

Press release:

We reiterate our complete commitment to the 72-hour truce that aims to open up humanitarian corridors.

However, the Sudanese army has violated the ceasefire by continuing to attack Khartoum by planes, which is a clear breach of the ceasefire agreement. This… pic.twitter.com/kfgXFclw33

The army confirmed its commitment to the truce, on the condition that the RSF commit to stopping all hostilities, which have already caused, per the United Nations, the death of at least 459 people and more than 3,700 have been injured as a result.
