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.

The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) announces restarting the world's largest and most powerful particle accelerator after a break of more than three years for maintenance, consolidation, and upgrade.

The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) restarted the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) on Friday after it was stopped for upgrades at the end of 2018.  

On its website, CERN wrote, "The world's largest and most powerful particle accelerator has restarted after a break of more than three years for maintenance, consolidation, and upgrade work. Today, 22 April, at 12:16 CEST [10:16 GMT], two beams of protons circulated in opposite directions around the Large Hadron Collider’s 27-kilometre [16.7 miles] ring at their injection energy of 450 billion electronvolts (450 GeV)."

CERN's director for accelerators and technology, Mike Lamont, stated that the major improvements made to the LHC would deliver "even higher energy" and "significantly more data to the upgraded LHC experiments."  

CERN added that experts would continue the work "to progressively recommission the machine and safely ramp up the energy and intensity of the beams before delivering collisions to the experiments at a record energy of 13.6 trillion electronvolts (13.6 TeV)," which will allow for more particle collisions during physics runs. This, in turn, will allow the study of "the Higgs boson in great detail and put the Standard Model of particle physics and its various extensions to the most stringent tests yet." 

The LHC, considered the most powerful particle accelerator in the world, is located beneath the France-Switzerland border near Geneva and was built by CERN in collaboration with over 10,000 scientists. It was first launched in September 2008.
