Lionel Messi. — AFP/File Argentinia's World Cup-winning captain Lionel Messi agreed to sign a contract with Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal, Daily Express reported Monday. Messi's future with Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) has been one of the main talking points in the football world, especially after the World Cup and with his contract set to expire at the end of this season. "The Argentina captain has been linked with a host of teams including Inter Miami and a return to Barcelona but it now appears he has settled on another club instead," the UK-based publication reported. The deal will be £262 million a year, which will be one of the most expensive contracts in football history, it said. Two of his former Barcelona teammates — Busquets and Jordi Alba — are also set to join him in Riyadh. "Messi's move would see him face old foe Ronaldo again as the duo re-establish their rivalry in the Middle East. Busquets joining alongside the Argentine would also be a blow to the 38-year-old after Al-Nassr had hoped to sign him themselves." Lionel Messi returned to training with PSG earlier today six days after Argentina's World Cup-winning captain was suspended for going on an unauthorised trip to Saudi Arabia. He was suspended by the Qatar-owned club after failing to turn up for training last Monday. Instead, the seven-time Ballon d´Or winner travelled to Saudi Arabia without PSG's permission to fulfil commitments as part of a contract with the country´s tourist office. The affair has made it increasingly unlikely that Messi will remain at PSG beyond this season, when his two-year contract with the club expires. https://www.thenews.com.pk/latest/1068357-messi-set-to-join-saudi-club-report

7am: get up, have breakfast After I’ve told a few children to get ready, I start my morning with green tea. Breakfast is around 8am and usually a bowl of porridge with milk, chopped banana, cinnamon, peanut butter and a sprinkling of pumpkin seeds. I’m wheat-intolerant so oats help balance my blood sugars, which means I don’t get hungry for longer, and they’ve also got good, soluble fibre in them, which is great for our digestive system. I always want to find ways to add extra plants to my diet, which is why I add the seeds, and having that banana means I’m getting a prebiotic which, again, is good for my gut. Studies show breakfast is key for children; it helps their cognitive function. We’ve always had a rule with my children that they should have a wholegrain cereal (Weetabix, oats, Shredded Wheat), and then they can add some toppings: a little sweet cereal like Rice Krispies, and fruit such as berries or banana.8.30am: off to school, then work I go on the school run at 8.30am, then I’m straight into work at 9am, either doing consultations or teaching pilates. Generally, I’ll have a morning snack, something quick like a protein bar with dried fruit and seeds, which keeps me fuller and more satisfied than a couple of biscuits. I don’t like to have more than three cups of caffeinated tea in a day, it affects my pelvic floor and can upset some people’s gut. If I want more, I’ll switch to something herbal. 12-1pm: lunch Recently, this has been homemade soup with oatcakes or wheat-free bread. I air-fry or roast butternut squash, add things such as carrots, tomatoes, homemade chicken stock, spices (cumin, coriander, turmeric), ginger and garlic, then blitz it all up. Otherwise, lunch might be rye bread with avocado, chopped cherry tomatoes and a little cheese, or roasted vegetables with a grain. I try and get a couple of portions of fruit and vegetables in here, so having vegetables roasted in advance or soup that I can heat up is perfect. Some research suggests we should have 30 different types of plants in our week, but this can include things like nuts, seeds and some grains. I would encourage people to go for seven [portions of] vegetables a day. And consistency is key; the gut likes us to have that routine, in terms of vegetables, fibre, fluid and, of course, movement. https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2023/mar/21/im-a-dietitian-this-is-what-i-eat-in-a-day

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif (L), Former President Asif Ali Zardari (centre), and interim Chief Minister Punjab Mohsin Naqvi (R).—PID/PPI/Facebook ISLAMABAD/LAHORE: Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has condemned the statement of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan in which he had levelled serious allegations against the institution and the country’s intelligence agency. In a tweet, the prime minister said, “Imran Niazi’s act of routinely maligning and threatening Pakistan Army and Intelligence Agency for the sake of petty political gains is highly condemnable. His levelling of allegations without any proof against Gen Faisal Naseer and officers of our Intelligence Agency cannot be allowed and will not be tolerated.” Meanwhile, former president and President of Pakistan Peoples Party Parliamentarians (PPPP) Asif Ali Zardari on Sunday said one person has crossed all limits to defame institutions, which will not be tolerated anymore. “The attempt to discredit institutions has exposed the true face of a man as its now enough is enough, after listening to the foreign agent’s speech, no patriot can even think of following him,” he said in a statement without naming PTI Chairman Imran Khan on his Saturday statement in which he made serious allegations against the institutions. Asif Ali Zardari, while responding to the allegations of the PTI chairman without naming him, said the allegations against the brave and distinguished officers of the Pakistan Army are actually an attack on the institution with which the whole of Pakistan stands. “A person is fooling his innocent workers with lies and deceit, I am seeing the downfall of this person,” he said. The former president said this is the country where we all have to be buried, we will not allow one person to play with our values and our country. “A person is bent on destroying our ancestors, our children and our country, which we will not allow,” said Asif Ali Zardari. Meanwhile, Punjab Caretaker Chief Minister (CM) Mohsin Naqvi on Sunday asserted that the interim government will not allow anyone to humiliate or threaten institutions and intelligence agencies in the province. Taking to Twitter, the Punjab CM said: “We will not allow anyone to humiliate or threaten our institutions and intelligence agencies in Punjab. It is our foremost responsibility as responsible Pakistani citizens to condemn these elements who are actually benefiting enemies of Pakistan.” Mohsin Naqvi assured that the government will implement the law and that culprits will be held accountable as per the law. A day earlier, the caretaker Punjab government announced to conduct a ‘transparent and impartial’ audit of the free flour scheme following the allegations levelled by Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PMLN) leader Shahid Khaqan Abbasi. Taking to Twitter, Caretaker Punjab Chief Minister Mohsin Naqvi said that it has been decided to conduct a transparent and impartial audit of the free flour scheme in Punjab to investigate the baseless allegations. The chief minister said that in order to ensure financial discipline, the free flour scheme will be audited by the Auditor General of Pakistan’s (AGP) Office and a private audit firm of international repute. He further said that the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) chairman has also been requested to examine the scheme so that the facts can be brought out and perpetrators of corruption can be brought to justice. https://www.thenews.com.pk/print/1068171-pm-zardari-naqvi-defend-institutions

Am I happy? I like to start with some yes or no questions to assess how I feel. I don’t spend too much time answering these — I know that my first response is usually my truest one. Am I grateful? I remind myself all the time to appreciate what I have. This question prompts me to do that. Do I like my job? We spend most of our time at work, so it’s important to feel good about what we do. Do I feel good? When I’m in a good mental and emotional place, I’m better equipped to connect with the people in my life. That’s why I work on my own energy before trying to help others. What new things am I learning? If I don’t have a good answer for this one, I know it’s time to make a change. When I’m not learning, I’m not growing, and when I’m not growing, I feel frustrated and weak. Where is my career going? I want to wake up excited every day for what’s ahead. Some advice: If you can’t identify your long-term goals, start thinking about them. You don’t need to know exactly what you want to do, but you should have an idea of the direction you want to take. How meaningful is my work? This is very simple: I want to feel like my work matters. How can I get better at what I do? The better I become at what I do, the bigger impact I can make, which leads to both more satisfaction and more income. What’s my number-one priority right now? I probably ask myself this question every day. When we focus on too many things at the same time, we don’t make much progress at all. How can I achieve that number-one priority more quickly? This question is not about being impatient — it’s about being creative. Imagining how I might achieve my goals faster pushes me to come up with new ways to get better results. What tasks should I stop doing? We all waste time. It’s important to identify the tasks that distract you from your real goals, and stop doing them. What tasks am I procrastinating? We all waste time. It’s important to identify the tasks that distract you from your real goals, and stop doing them. How can I help one person today? My life has more meaning when I do something generous with my time. A simple gesture is enough. I might decide to call a family member, or cheer up a friend. What questions am I not asking myself? This list of questions will always be changing - because I myself am always changing. Try coming up with a list of your own, and then bring it out every month or so. After a while, you may just find that your life is better simply because you took the time to ask yourself how things were going.

The Juice Probe lifts off today for Jupiter with a long journey of nearly eight years ahead of it. Ignacio Tanco, responsible for operations of the Juice mission, has been on Radio Euskadi. The Juice Probe takes off today at 2:15 p.m. for Jupiter with a long journey of almost eight years ahead. It will do so from French Guiana with the mission of finding out if the moons of the great gaseous planet harbor habitable oceans under the ice sheet that covers them. The objective of the mission is to find out the state of the water in the frozen oceans of Jupiter's moons, since from the earth you can see the first layer of ice that covers them, but it is not possible to know if under the crust water is in a liquid or solid state. After three years of work collecting data, Juice will focus on Ganymede, where it will impact to end the mission. Ignacio Tanco, responsible for operations of the Juice mission, told Radio Euskadi's "Boulevard" how complicated it is to take off a probe that has only one second a day to do it, "today we are very busy... "We are in the countdown phase. Now everything is green to start and all the conditions are in place for the launch to Jupiter." He affirmed that they are ready, "more than tension now is anticipation. With everything prepared, the tension exists, but not like in previous days." But until 2031 they will not reach Jupiter and "once they arrive there we will have 3 years in which we will tour the moons in a very low orbit and see if there are oceans." It is a "mission is exploration, we have great uncertainties to see if there is liquid water. I hope we find evidence that there are liquid oceans on Jupiter." https://www.eitb.eus/es/radio/radio-euskadi/programas/boulevard/detalle/9170799/lanzamiento-a-jupiter-espero-que-encontremos-evidencia-de-que-hay-oceanos-liquidos-en-jupiter/

Samsung hasn't officially announced plans to launch its next generation of foldable smartphones, but rumours about the handsets have already started doing the rounds. The South Korean company may launch its Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 smartphones a month before they were expected to debut in a bid to fend off competition from Google's purported Pixel Fold. Hinges for the upcoming foldable phones are said to enter mass production in early June. Samsung usually initiates the production of hinges towards the end of June. The Galaxy Z Fold 5 is rumoured to feature a new ‘droplet' hinge design. According to details shared in a tweet by tipster Revegnus (Twitter: @Tech_Reve), Samsung Electronics will begin mass production of foldable phone hinges at the beginning of June. Usually, the company begins production of hinges for its foldable phones by end of the month. As a result, the tipster claims that Samsung could launch Galaxy Z Fold 5 and the Galaxy Z Flip 5 in July rather than in late August. Samsung launched the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 on August 10 last year, during its Galaxy Unpacked event. Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5, Galaxy Z Flip 5 Could Make Battery Replacement Easier Specifications of Samsung's upcoming foldable phones for 2023 have leaked online on multiple occasions. The Galaxy Z Fold 5 is tipped to feature a new ‘droplet' hinge design with an IPX8 build. Both Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 could run on One UI 5.1.1 based on Android 13 and are expected to be powered by a custom Qualcomm Snapdragon for Galaxy SoC. The Galaxy Z Fold 5 is tipped to feature a triple rear camera setup, comprising a 50-megapixel primary sensor, a 12-megapixel ultra wide-angle sensor, and a 10-megapixel telephoto shooter. The Galaxy Z Flip 5 could pack a dual rear camera unit with a 12-megapixel primary sensor and a 12-megapixel ultra wide-angle shooter. Samsung Galaxy A24 Could Debut as a Mid-Range Phone: Specifications Leaked While the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 is said to be available in 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB storage options, the Galaxy Z Flip 5 will reportedly arrive with 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB storage models. The Galaxy Z Flip 5 is tipped to be offered in beige, gray, light green, and light pink colour options, while the Galaxy Z Fold 5 could be launched in beige, black, and light blue shades. The newly launched Oppo Find N2 Flip is the first foldable from the company to debut in India. But does it have what it takes to compete with the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4? We discuss this on Orbital, the Gadgets 360 podcast. Orbital is available on Spotify, Gaana, JioSaavn, Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music and wherever you get your podcasts. https://www.gadgets360.com/mobiles/news/samsung-z-fold-5-flip-launch-expected-schedule-leak-july-hinge-production-galaxy-3966966#pfrom=desktop-lhs-trending

The Google Pixel 6 has just taken another hefty price cut at Amazon this week, with the device now retailing for just $386 (was $599)(opens in new tab) for the base 128GB model(opens in new tab) and $399 (was $699)(opens in new tab) for the 256GB model. While it's likely Amazon is looking to clear stock in time for the new budget-orientated Google Pixel 7a launch (rumored next month), today's discount is a great deal for those who aren't bothered about the latest and greatest tech. And despite the device's relative age, the Google Pixel 6 remains a solid choice in 2023 thanks to its Tensor chip, premium design, and innovative camera and AI features. Google Pixel 6 Was: $599 Now: $386.99 at Amazon Overview: Key features: Android OS, Tensor chip, 50MP camera, 6.4-inch AMOLED display (90HZ), 4614 mAh battery Product launched: October 2021 Price history: The Google Pixel 6 has been on sale for $399 previously over the past six months or so but today's price at Amazon is a new record low. Alongside this particular listing, you'll also find the upgraded 256GB storage model for $399, which is another record-low price. Price comparison: Amazon: $386.99 | Walmart: $449 | Newegg: $441 Reviews consensus: Even though it's an older device now, the Google Pixel 6 remains a compelling choice for 2023. It was, and remains, one of the best value Android flagships you can buy, with an excellent premium design, top-notch camera, and innovative AI features like Magic Eraser. While it's not the speediest device on the market now (especially versus the Pixel 7), it's still a good choice for an everyday driver if you're an Android fan on a budget. TechRadar: ★★★★ | Toms Guide: ★★★★ | Android Central: ★★★★ | T3: ★★★★ Featured in guides: Best phone (2022 edition), Best Pixel phone, Best cheap phone, Best Android phone (2022), Best Camera phone (2022) Buy it if: You want a premium flagship on a budget and don't mind missing out on the latest device. The Google Pixel 6 is still feature-rich and powerful enough for most users, plus the camera is absolutely top-notch. It also features a glass-backed design, which you won't get on the cheaper Pixel 6a. Don't buy it if: You want to wait for the newer Google Pixel 7 to get another price cut at Amazon (the record is $499), or if you've got an eye on the upcoming Google Pixel 8 or Google Pixel 7a. In the case of the latter, it should be another great value device (based on previous models) and will likely land next month. It's unlikely to feature the glass-backed design of the Pixel 6. https://www.techradar.com/deals/the-google-pixel-6-has-just-hit-a-record-price-at-amazon-a-low-key-amazing-deal

Currently, the manufacture of chips for RAM and SSD memory is concentrated in a handful of companies. Although it has never been fully demonstrated, on more than one occasion they would have agreed on prices or methods to mani[CENSORED]te the market. It seems that Samsung and SK Hynix agree to reduce the manufacture of memories for SSDs and raise prices. To give us an idea, currently there are losses in the sales of these memories. They are sold below cost in some cases, which is unfeasible. This forces a cut in production that generates an immediate price rise. Note that SK Hynix, Micron, Westen Digital, Samsung and Kioxia (formerly Toshiba) have cut their memory production for SSDs. These are the leading manufacturers of solid storage units. So in the coming months we should see price increases or, at the very least, a slowdown in price declines. Haw

The best mobile games of 2023 so far (May 2023) By Catherine Dellosa | 4 days ago iOS + Android Updated on May 3rd, 2023 Here it is: the list of the best mobile games of 2023 so far! We'll be adding more reviews as the games get released, so make sure to bookmark this page and check it every now and then. You can also have a look at the best mobile games of 2022 if you're feeling a little nostalgic! ALL THE MOBILE GAMES WE'VE REVIEWED IN 2023 Every year, we review hundreds of new mobile games, picking out the cream of the crop for you to play. It's not as easy a process as you might think. For a start, there's definitely no time to review everything - our editors and reviewers look through the stacks of titles released each month and pick out those which we think have the most promise. There are tens of thousands of mobile games released every year, and we only have so much time. So, even before games are reviewed, they're filtered through on multiple levels before that selection. But, with us doing so many reviews each year, we thought it was sensible to create this resource, so that you can, at a quick glance, see the best mobile games of 2023 by review ranking. We'll let you in on what might be quite a well-known secret: the teams at Steel Media (that's Pocket Gamer, Pocket Gamer France, 148Apps, App Spy, and more) really love mobile games - as well we should, because we've been reviewing them for over 15 years now, or, if you want to do that weird thing people do where they add up the collective years to get an obscene number, the sites have been reviewing mobile games for over fifty years collectively... That means that there's a lot of knowledge in these halls, and it also means that we are quite precise when it comes to picking which ones we do decide to review. Below you will find - by awarded score and within that, alphabetical order - each of the games we've chosen to review this year so far. Decide for yourself which of them are the best mobile games of 2023! 5 Star - 10/10 - Pocket Gamer Platinum Award More games to come this year! 4.5 Star - 9/10 - Pocket Gamer Gold Award Flash Party review - February 15th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Highwater review - March 15th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Laya's Horizon review - May 2nd, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Pickle Pete review - March 6th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Raging Bytes review - April 25th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Roundguard review - April 25th, 2023 - 148Apps Sands of Salzaar review - January 23rd, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Sid Meier’s Railroads review - May 2nd, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Super Meat Boy Forever review - April 20th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Ten Dates review - February 14th, 2023 - 148Apps Ten Dates review - February 17th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Terra Nil review - March 28th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer The Legend of Tianding review - March 31st, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Valiant Hearts: Coming Home Netflix review - January 31st, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Vampire Survivors: Tides of the Foscari DLC review - April 22nd, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Wavecade review - January 18th, 2023 - 148Apps 4 Star - 8/10 - Pocket Gamer Silver Award yt Subscribe to Pocket Gamer on Brotato review - April 3rd, 2023 - 148Apps Cursed Labyrinth -Hack & Slash review - March 9th, 2023 - 148Apps Gomorrah review - February 24th, 2023 - 148Apps Happy Game review - February 7th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer How We Know We're Alive review - March 20th, 2023 - 148Apps Madness/Endless review - February 7th, 2023 - 148Apps Mighty Quest Rogue Palace review - April 18th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Omega 13 review - January 25th, 2023 - 148Apps Perfect Grind review - January 18th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Pine Tar Poker review - January 19th, 2023 - 148Apps Postknight 2 review - March 23rd, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Rocco's Island: Pocket Edition review - February 22nd, 2023 - 148Apps Roller Drama review - January 25th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Roundguard review - April 25th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Tap Shap review - February 17th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Tomb Raider Reloaded review - February 17th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer TMNT: Shredder's Revenge review - January 18th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer TriviaLinked review - April 18th, 2023 - 148Apps 3.5 Star - 7/10 - Pocket Gamer Bronze Award Beecarbonize review - March 14th, 2023 - 148Apps Boxville review - January 30th, 2023 - 148Apps Cuttlefish review - May 1st, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Eversoul review - February 23rd, 2023 - Pocket Gamer How We Know We're Alive review - March 21st, 2023 - Pocket Gamer IDEA review - March 10th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer LEGO Bricktales review - April 27th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Orange review - April 14th, 2023 - 148Apps PARANORMASIGHT: The Seven Mysteries of Honjo review - March 30th, 2023 - 148Apps Perfect Grind review - January 18th, 2023 - 148Apps Punch Kick Duck review - February 9th, 2023 - 148Apps Punch Kick Duck review - March 1st, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Roller Drama review - February 2nd, 2023 - 148Apps Scenic Route's Generations review - April 27th, 2023 - 148Apps Settlement Survival review - April 10th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer TriviaLinked review - April 18th, 2023 - 148Apps UFO99 review - January 24th, 2023 - 148Apps Ultra Blade review - March 2nd, 2023 - 148Apps Vlobs review - March 22nd, 2023 - 148Apps Voice of Cards: The Forsaken Maiden review - April 12th, 2023 - 148Apps 3 Star - 6/10 Avatar Generations review - February 7th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Delete After Reading review - March 17th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Domingo review - March 15th, 2023 - 148Apps EISEN review - March 10th, 2023 - 148Apps Paths: Beatrice's Adventure review - April 21st, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Resonance of the Ocean review - January 6th, 2023 - Pocket Gamer Ultimate Sackboy review - February 21st, 2023 - Pocket Gamer yt Subscribe to Pocket Gamer on 2.5 Star - 5/10 Endling - Extinction is Forever review - February 15th, 2023 - 148Apps Water 2050 review - April 5th, 2023 - 148Apps And that's it for now - the best mobile games of 2023 so far.

Redfall is out, and to be blunt, it is not good. It's a "flat, dull experience," we said in our 44% review(opens in new tab) (ouch), "that lacks any of Arkane's usual brilliance." In an interview with Kinda Funny(opens in new tab), Xbox boss Phil Spencer said he's "disappointed" in the state of the game, and apologized to fans for missing the mark so badly. "I'm disappointed. I'm upset with myself," Spencer said. "I kind of revisit our process—I think back to the announcement of 60 frames per second, and then we weren't shipping 60 frames per second(opens in new tab). That was kind of our punch in the chin, rightfully, a couple weeks ago. And then seeing the game come out, and the critical response was not what we wanted. It's disappointing." "I want to give the [Xbox] teams the creative platform to go and push their abilities, push their aspirations. But I also need to have a great selection of games that continue to surprise and delight our fans, and we under-delivered on that. And for that, I apologize. It's not what I expect, not what I want."

Former foreign minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi (left) and incumbent FM Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari. — AFP/File MULTAN: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Vice Chairman Shah Mehmood Qureshi on Saturday said that the Indian foreign minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar’s press conference after Bilawal’s departure from the SCO summit was against the diplomatic ethics and being a senior diplomat, he should not have spoken irresponsibly and unnecessarily. Talking to journalists here at Babul Quraish, Qureshi said what India’s foreign minister said was also against the diplomatic etiquette as Pakistan Foreign Minister Bilawal went to India on their invitation. “There was a thought that Bilawal should not go to India because of Hindutva thinking while the second thought was that this was an important regional forum and he should attend,” Qureshi added. He said when a person like the foreign minister goes to India, there is some due etiquette for the host. “I think, despite differences with Bilawal, this has become a mockery of the entire nation. India is using terrorism as a shield. The August 5, 2019 actions were opposed not only by Pakistan but also from inside India and by indigenous Kashmiris. Pakistan’s seasoned diplomats should have advised Bilawal before his departure to India.” Shah Mehmood Qureshi said Bilawal should have known that if he discusses bilateral issues at the SCO forum, there will be a reaction. “There is no victim of terrorism more than Pakistan. Before pointing fingers at Pakistan, India should see the dossier of Pakistan in which India was exposed. This dossier exposed terrorism and fanaticism of India,” he asserted. “What was Kulbhushan doing in Pakistan, Jaishankar should look into it. The spirit of SCO has been defeated,” he added. On the prevailing political situation, Qureshi said: “The rulers are not looking at law, Constitution and equality for their purpose. Section 144 was imposed despite allowing the rally in Multan and Lahore. We are moving court against the ban on rallies in Multan. The Supreme Court has acted with restraint despite the attack on the bench.” He observed the visit of foreign ministers of Afghanistan and China to Pakistan was a continuation of the bilateral forum. The purpose of this forum is how they can help Afghanistan by playing the role of good neighbours, and China’s foreign minister has said a lot of meaningful words. Criticizing the government, Qureshi said: “The rulers are double-minded today. The PTI had told the court that political parties should get a chance for a political get-together. Many things have been agreed, including a joint election monitoring setup accepting the results after the elections. However, the government did not care about it and Nawaz Sharif has issued his decision that they do not accept the decision of three or two. We tried everything possible but when they remained stubborn, we filed a reply in the Supreme Court. “The rulers want to present the budget despite bringing a storm of inflation on the people in one year and if no agreement is made with the IMF, how will they present the budget?” he questioned. “Ishaq Dar says they have nothing to do with the attack on Pervaiz Elahi’s house. The PPP’s attitude was appropriate in the negotiations, unlike PML-N which is divided on negotiations. Ishaq Dar and Saad Rafique are negotiating but Khawaja Asif and Javed Latif oppose such a move. The PDM is divided on the issue of negotiations, especially Maulana,” said the PTI leader. https://www.thenews.com.pk/print/1067888-qureshi-denounces-jaishankar-s-statement-after-bilawal-s-departure

A rare black fox which has been roaming the streets of a Vale of Glamorgan town for two weeks has been rescued. Black Foxes UK began receiving numerous reports of an abandoned "silver fox" in Barry on 8 April but were unable to locate its owner. Also known as silver foxes, they are not native to the wild in the UK, but domesticated and kept as exotic pets. The fox was safely captured on 24 April and has been found a home at a secure facility. RSPCA Cymru said even the most experienced fox experts have had difficulty keeping adult foxes and does not advise it. Rare black fox is spotted roaming the streets In North America, about 10% of foxes are black, with the rest a mixture of colours, such as red. Some people will breed only black litters to make totally black foxes, and there are currently no restrictions in the UK on breeding or owning them. Black Foxes UK sought help from the local authority animal warden and local cat rescue, Shua Trust Home and Sanctuary who helped with the rescue. The fox, which is male and appears to be about two years old, has been named Shadow. He was taken to Vets4Pets for treatment as there were reports of the fox having a leg injury, but he was found to be in fine health. Shadow is very confident around people and was clearly well-socialised prior to his escape, said Black Foxes UK. It said there may still be an injured fox on the loose and asked the public to stay alert. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-wales-65400677
