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.

Colonel-General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, the chairman of Sudan's ruling Transitional Sovereign Council, has stated that the country's authorities are attempting to establish a civilian government and avoid the country falling into "authoritarian control," as per local media reports.

"The country's leadership is striving to establish a civilian rule that relies on the support of the armed forces and people [...] and to prevent the establishment of authoritarian rule in the future," the Sudanese army chief and de facto leader was quoted as saying.

He also highlighted that the country's military will support the Sudanese people and will always be on their side, noting that the army was "part of them and is the backbone for the state and people".

Last week, the council's Vice-President, Mohammed Hamdan Dagalo, met with the non-signatory parties to the framework agreement inked last year. During the meeting, the council reported that the non-signatory parties affirmed their desire to negotiate a political compromise to end the country's crisis.

Sudan's civic leaders and armed forces signed a framework agreement on December 5, 2022, establishing a transitional civil administration. Sudan launched a political dialogue based on the framework agreement on January 8, this year.

The agreement between the Sudanese parties aims to resolve a prolonged crisis since October 25, 2021, when the head of the Transitional Sovereignty Council, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, imposed exceptional measures, including the dissolution of the Sovereignty Council and the Transitional Ministers, the arrest of ministers and politicians, the declaration of a state of emergency, and the dismissal of governors (governors).

Al-Burhan seized power on October 25, 2021, and overthrew the civilian government that took over the reins of power following the toppling of the former president, Omar al-Bashir, in 2019.
