Telegram CEO Says He'll Leave Fortune To 100 Kids Born Via Sperm Donation

Telegram founder Pavel Durov has revealed plans to divide his nearly $20 billion fortune among 100 children he fathered through sperm donations. According to Durov, this arrangement is detailed in his will, which also includes provisions for his six children with three partners. Durov, known for his conflicts with the Kremlin over free speech issues, was charged last year by French authorities for allegedly allowing illegal activities like sex abuse and drug trafficking on his encrypted messaging platform, charges he denies. The billionaire shared these details in an interview with France's Le Point magazine , explaining that the 100 children were born across 12 countries over the past 15 years through sperm donations. When asked about the role of family in his life, Pavel Durov emphasised its great importance. He recently wrote his will, deciding that his children will not have access to his fortune for 30 years. He wants them to live independently, build their paths, and not r...

Watch: Holding Hands Kohli, Anushka Spotted Going To New Year Party

New Year 2025 was welcomed in great fashion across the world. The Indian cricket team members also wished their fans on social media. Currently, the Indian cricket team is in Australia and celebrated the New Year in Sydney. Power couple Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma were spotted on the streets of Sydney on Tuesday. Devdutt Padikkal, who has played in the IPL with Virat Kohli, accompanied them. Several social media accounts said that the group was going to a New Year Party. 

The aftermath of India's loss in the Boxing Day Test against Australia has reignited debates over the Test careers of veterans Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. While both batters have faced criticism following their lackluster performances, former cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar has voiced strong opinions about the distinction in how their contributions to Test cricket should be assessed. Manjrekar stated that Virat Kohli deserves more leeway than Rohit Sharma due to his stature as a modern-day Test great.

"I must say there is no comparison between Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli as Test batters. Virat Kohli is right up there. He's a great Test batter and Rohit Sharma is a good Test batter. Rohit's white-ball batting was great. So Virat Kohli obviously deserves a longer rope. It's not so much about Virat Kohli. I want to know what the batting coach of India is doing. We can't solve the obvious problem of such a fine player," Manjrekar told Star Sports.

Kohli's Test career, spanning 122 matches, has seen him amass 9,207 runs, including 30 centuries. He remains India's most successful Test captain, leading India to historic wins, including overseas series victories in Australia. Rohit, on the other hand, has played 67 Tests, scoring 4,302 runs. While his Test career includes some memorable innings, it is overshadowed by his unmatched white-ball legacy.

Rohit Sharma has had a forgettable run as a Test batter and captain in recent months. His performance in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy has been dismal, scoring just 31 runs across five innings at an average of 6.20—the worst for a visiting skipper in a Test series in Australia.

The Boxing Day Test added to Rohit's issues as he fell cheaply for 9 runs off 40 balls while chasing 340 on the final day. The Indian captain has scored only 164 runs in Test cricket since September, averaging slightly over 10.

Biden Orders US Military To Shoot Down Iranian Missiles Targeting Israel

President Joe Biden has ordered the US military to "aid Israel's defense" and shoot down any and all Iranian missiles targeting Israel, the White House said. President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee in next month's US presidential election, are both monitoring Iran's attack on Israel from the White House situation room, it said. "President Biden directed the US military to aid Israel's defense against Iranian attacks and shoot down missiles that are targeting Israel," the White House said in a statement. A call that Joe Biden had scheduled with rabbis today ahead of the Jewish high holiday season - which begins later this week with Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish new year - had been postponed to another day, a White House official said. The United States and other western allies also stepped in to help defend Israel against a combined Iranian missile and drone attack in April, which Tehran launched in retaliation for an ...

US Reopens Lake Michigan Airspace After Closure Over "National Defense"

US officials restricted the airspace over Lake Michigan on Sunday citing a potential new threat to national security but soon reopened the skies, as the United States and Canada respond to multiple air intrusions. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced "temporary flight restrictions" over one of the Great Lakes along the US-Canada border, designating it as "national defense airspace," one day after a similar closure over Montana led to the scrambling of US fighter jets. The Montana closure was ordered over a "radar anomaly," but no object was discovered. Similarly, the Lake Michigan restrictions were lifted shortly after they were announced, apparently with no threat detected. "The FAA briefly closed some airspace over Lake Michigan to support Department of Defense activities. The airspace has been reopened," the agency said in a statement to AFP. Sunday's action over Lake Michigan marked the latest move to address a series ...
