The recent rumours in Indian media that Hollywood action star Jason Momoa is being considered for the role of the villain in the Yash Raj Film-produced movie have only served to heighten the anticipation for the upcoming collaboration of Indian superstars Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan's Tiger vs. Pathaan. Siddharth Anand, an Indian filmmaker who has previously directed the recently released spy films Pathaan and War for the same production company, is helming the picture (2019).

  A Yemeni government official announced that a prisoner swap involving hundreds of prisoners from Yemen's terrible civil war will begin on Thursday amid growing optimism for peace. The official stated on Tuesday that over 900 inmates, the most of whom were fighting alongside Houthi rebels, will be flown between Yemen and Saudi Arabia, which is in charge of the military coalition fighting on behalf of the overthrown government. Since the Saudi-led operation started in March 2015, several months after the Iran-backed Houthis took control of the nation's capital Sanaa, the poorest nation in the Arabian Peninsula has been at war. According to the UN, Yemen is experiencing one of the greatest humanitarian catastrophes in the world, with hundreds of thousands of deaths from both direct and indirect causes.

 The Pakistan cricket board announced Grant Bradburn as the new head coach in a most understated manner on Friday, while Mickey Arthur's possible comeback remained a mystery. According to recent sources, Arthur was almost certain to take over as the "consultant team director" for the national team. Najam Sethi, the temporary head of the Pakistan Cricket Board's (PCB) Management Committee, has been loud about the pursuit of Arthur's appointment. The PCB's press release, which featured a list of the player support staff for Pakistan's upcoming five-match T20 and One-day International series against New Zealand, did not mention Arthur at all. The PCB, however, was stated to "confirm the Pakistan team management for post-New Zealand series pending the conclusion of the required recruitment processes, which are currently continuing," according to the statement. Dawn is aware that the Public Procurement Regulatory Authority's (PPRA) regulations, wh...

 The plan by the government to regulate news on social media through a self-appointed fact-checking unit has The Editors Guild of India extremely alarmed, the trade association said on Friday, calling the new regulations draconian and resembling censorship. According to the updated IT regulations for the nation, platforms must "not publish, share or host fictitious, inaccurate or misleading information" regarding the executive branch.

The fact-checking unit will be established by the federal government, which announced its appointment on Thursday. The Editors Guild of India, however, has concerns about the unit's governance structure, its broad authority in identifying fake news, and the right to appeal in such circumstances. The organis...

 A source close to Paris St-Germain told AFP on Tuesday that Lionel Messi is "far more likely" to leave the club at the conclusion of the season than to agree to a new contract. The insider stated that "the dynamics have radically altered with PSG less pushing to renew (his contract)" and that "no deal, no leaving yet." Yet, leaving is considerably more likely. Messi, a World Cup champion who will turn 36 in June, joined in 2021 on a two-year contract that ends at the conclusion of this season. Before to Sunday's 1-0 home loss to Lyon in Ligue 1, some PSG supporters jeered the Argentine's name as the teams were introduced. Since being eliminated by Bayern Munich from the Champions League in the round of 16 last month, the fans of the club owned by Qatar are dissatisfied with the atmosphere around the team. PSG has lost eight times in 18 games in 2023, which has caused them to exit the French Cup early even though they still lead the French table by...

 Phil Wiser, the head of technology at Paramount Global PARA -1.22%decrease; red down pointing triangle, used SpongeBob SquarePants to showcase the dangers and benefits of artificial intelligence for company executives. Mr. Wiser gave the order to DALL-E, an AI tool, to display SpongeBob, one of the most recognisable figures from Paramount, piloting a jet.

The vivid demonstration brought up some of the unresolved issues around generative AI technology and potential dangers.

 Amir Khan, a former world champion in the light welterweight division, was given a two-year suspension from all sports after testing positive for an illegal drug, UK Anti-Doping (UKAD) announced on Tuesday. Following his defeat to Kell Brook in Manchester in February 2022, Khan, 36, tested positive for the anabolic substance ostarine. Ostarine is a medication made to act similarly to testosterone.

 In a momentous policy decision prompted by Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which drew a threat from Moscow of "counter-measures," Finland officially joined Nato on Tuesday, with its flag unfurling outside the military alliance's Brussels headquarters. As the conflict in Ukraine rages on with no end in sight, Finland's admission approximately doubles the length of Nato's border with Russia and strengthens its eastern flank. Pekka Haavisto, the foreign minister of Finland, handed a formal paperwork to US State Secretary Antony Blinken at the Nato headquarters to finish the accession process. The 30 other members of the alliance's flag were raised beside Finland's, which has a blue cross on a white backdrop, as a military band played in the beautiful sunshine. At the ceremony, Nato Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said, "Our great alliance has protected our nations for almost 75 years and continues to do so today." But now that conflict has ret...

 During one of the protests, a Trump fan attempted to pull the banner of the opposing group, which is when authorities intervened. A few loud counterprotesters screamed an anti-fascist message as dozens of Donald Trump fans demonstrated outside the courthouse where the former president is scheduled to be arraigned on criminal charges on Tuesday. The community relations branch of the New York Police Department intervened as the pro-Trump side hurled epithets at their rivals while many were wearing recognisable "MAGA" hats and clothing covered in the American flag. But the majority of the space outside Manhattan's criminal court was occupied by reporters as they awaited the historic indictment of a US president at a hearing at 2:15 PM (1815 GMT). Trump was scheduled to show up in the early afternoon to answer questions about allegations of campaign finance breaches involving hush payments he made to a porn star while vying for the presidency. Team MAGA raised a flag with th...

 As a Romanian court denied the prosecution's request to put social media star Andrew Tate in police custody until the end of April, Tate was sent to house arrest late on Friday. Since December 29, Tate, his brother Tristan, and two female suspects from Romania have been held by police while prosecutors look into their possible involvement in rape, human trafficking, and organising a group to molest women. They have refuted each and every charge. Eugen Vidineac, Tate's solicitor, told reporters, "We regard the court decision as legal, thorough, and right." The brothers, he claimed, were prevented from speaking with witnesses and from leaving the house without permission from the police. We do not yet know the reasoning behind the court's decision, and we are unaware of any additional interdictions. Tristan Tate said to media outside the prison in Romanian, "We're coming home. His sibling remained silent. Outside the prison, more than twenty Tate's sup...
