📰 Russian 🇷🇺 PM arrives in China 🇨🇳 for business forum, talks with Xi 🤝

Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin has landed in China, according to Moscow's foreign ministry. His visit will involve a meeting with President Xi Jinping and the signing of several agreements on infrastructure and trade 📜🤝. Mishustin arrived in Shanghai on Monday, receiving a warm welcome from Moscow's Ambassador to China Igor Morgulov and Beijing's top diplomat to Russia Zhang Hanhui 🛬🤝.

The Kremlin stated that Mishustin will participate in a Russian-Chinese Business Forum and visit a petrochemical research institute in Shanghai, along with engaging in talks with "representatives of Russian business circles" 🤝💼. Bloomberg News reported that the forum has invited sanctioned Russian tycoons, including those from the crucial fertilizer, steel, and mining sectors, as well as Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak, who deals with energy issues ⛽💼.

Russia's gas exports have experienced a significant decline due to severe sanctions imposed by Western countries following Moscow's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. However, China became Russia's top energy customer last year, offering a boost to its exports 🌍🔌.

After his stay in Shanghai, Mishustin will travel to Beijing where he will meet with Xi and Premier Li Qiang, as reported by Russian state media TASS 🛫🤝🇨🇳. China and Russia have strengthened their economic cooperation and diplomatic ties in recent years, with their strategic partnership growing closer following Russia's invasion. China, though claiming neutrality in the conflict, has refrained from condemning Russia's actions 🤝🚫❌.

In February, Beijing issued a 12-point paper calling for a "political settlement" to the conflict in Ukraine, which was seen by Western countries as potentially allowing Russia to maintain control over much of the seized territory 📄🏴‍☠️. During a March summit in Moscow, Xi and Russian President Vladimir Putin signed an agreement ushering in a "new era" of cooperation, while Xi also extended an invitation to Putin to visit Beijing. Just days earlier, Putin had faced an International Criminal Court arrest warrant over alleged war crimes in Ukraine ⚖️🏴‍☠️🇺🇦🇷🇺.

Turkey's election night was marred by squabbling and accusations between the two major parties as the vote count seesawed back and forth.

The opposition accused state-run Anadolu news agency of slowing the vote count to keep their candidate, Kemal Kilicdaroglu, trailing behind President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. However, figures from the Anka news agency showed a much narrower lead for Erdogan, with Kilicdaroglu close behind in the national vote.

The spokesperson for Erdogan's AK Party accused the opposition of trying to usurp the ballot and making a grave statement. As the vote count continues, tensions remain high in Turkey, and the question remains, who will come out on top in this crucial election?

The race's third candidate, Sinan Ogan, also appeared to be gathering more votes than expected, with both Anadolu and Anka showing him at more than 5 percent.

Turkey's opposition has accused Anadolu of manipulating the timing of its results in past elections, claiming that it always shows an early lead for the AK Party and delays voting figures for areas where the opposition is strong.

The election results are yet to be officially finalized, and Erdogan has called for his party workers to keep watch over the ballot boxes until then.

Pakistan's Finance Minister, Ishaq Dar, recently announced on Twitter that the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has informed the International Monetary Fund (IMF) that it will provide financial support of $1 billion to the South Asian country.

This announcement could pave the way for Pakistan to secure a crucial bailout package from the global lender to tackle its ongoing economic crisis. However, some experts have expressed skepticism about the announcement, given the finance ministry's lack of credibility in the past.

The IMF has put forward a set of demands for the latest loan package, including removing the artificial cap on the Pakistani rupee's value in the market, removing subsidies, raising taxes, and providing guarantees from friendly countries of providing financial support.

Additionally, earlier this month, Saudi Arabia also committed to funding $2 billion for Pakistan. The resumption of the IMF program is critical for Pakistan's struggling economy, which has been wrecked by record-breaking inflation and an ever-declining foreign exchange reserve.

Gary Lineker, a former England football captain and current BBC Match of the Day presenter, has been temporarily removed from his role due to his criticism of the UK government's new policy towards asylum seekers. Lineker's comments on Twitter, which included comparing the government's language towards asylum seekers to that used in N**i Germany, led to calls for his dismissal from some Conservative Party members of parliament.

The BBC stated that Lineker's recent social media activity breached their guidelines and he should avoid taking sides on political issues. However, Lineker's colleagues and other public figures have expressed their support for him and questioned the BBC's impartiality.

The controversy surrounds the UK government's plans to detain and deport asylum seekers arriving by boat, which has been criticized by human rights groups and the United Nations. The opposition Labour party called the BBC's decision to remove Lineker from air an assault on free speech. In response to Lineker's temporary removal, some of his colleagues announced they would not appear on the Match of the Day show without him, prompting the BBC to air the program without studio presentation or punditry.

US authorities have released two Pakistani brothers, Abdul and Mohammed Rabbani, from Guantanamo Bay military prison after being held there for two decades. The men were accused of providing al-Qaeda members with lower-level logistical support, but no charges or trials were held against them. The brothers alleged torture during their time in CIA custody before being transferred to Guantanamo Bay. They have been reunited with their families in Karachi after being formally questioned by Pakistani authorities. The release comes as the US aims to shut down the prison, with 32 detainees still remaining.

Russia has launched an uncrewed Soyuz spacecraft to rescue two cosmonauts and a NASA astronaut who were unable to return to Earth due to their original spacecraft being damaged by a mini meteorite while parked at the International Space Station (ISS). The Soyuz MS-23 vessel successfully took off from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan on Friday and is expected to dock with the ISS on Sunday. However, the return of the three crew members is not expected until later this year as the MS-23 did not have a replacement crew on board. The damaged Soyuz MS-22 will undock from the ISS in late March and return to Earth for a parachute-assisted landing in Kazakhstan.

A recent report indicates that the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro phones in India have received 5G support following the Android 13 QPR2 Beta 2 update earlier this year.

However, the report also reveals that these phones only support the first 5G standard, Release 15, and not the latest standards such as Release 16, which comes with improvements to the foundation of the 5G system.

The Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro phones use Samsung's Exynos 5300 modem, which currently only supports Release 15. However, Samsung claims that this modem can support Release 16, which may be added to the Pixel 7 series later this year.

Qualcomm recently released the Snapdragon X75 modem with support for the latest 3GPP standards, including Release 17 and 18, which offer high-speed coverage and power efficiency.

In summary, the Pixel 7 series phones in India now support 5G but currently only with the first 5G standard, with the possibility of getting support for the latest standards later this year.

Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, is testing a new subscription service called "Meta Verified" in Australia and New Zealand that would allow users to pay a monthly fee to have a verified account.

The service will soon be rolled out to other countries, including the United States. The fee for the service is $11.99 per month on the web and $14.99 per month on Apple and Android operating systems. Meta will use a government ID to verify the user's account and provide a blue badge, which was previously reserved for notable public figures or businesses.

The service aims to increase authenticity and security across the platforms, and will primarily target content creators who want to expand their presence. Subscribers will receive extra protection against impersonation, direct access to customer support, and greater visibility.

The company has stated that there will be no changes to already verified accounts, and the service is not available to businesses. It is not yet clear how the pricing will be adjusted for countries where users cannot afford the monthly fee.

Meta's advertisement revenue has declined for the first time since the company went public in 2012, and it has also faced regulatory changes from Apple.

The company's push into the metaverse is also seen as a major gamble.

Sheikh Jassim Bin Hamad Al Thani, son of Qatar’s former PM, has made a debt-free bid to purchase Manchester United, whose US-based owners, the Glazer family, are seeking a valuation of up to £7bn.

The Qatari bid is one of several offers received for the 20-time English champions, with the potential sale expected to set a record for sports business sales.

Other potential bidders include UK billionaire Jim Ratcliffe, Saudi Arabia, and US private equity firms. United's Premier League rivals Liverpool are also exploring a sale, while Tottenham Hotspur is expected to receive a bid from Iranian-American billionaire Jahm Najafi.

Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao announced on Friday that the company has pulled back on some potential investments in the US.

This comes in response to a Bloomberg report that Binance is considering ending relationships with US business partners amid increased regulatory scrutiny. Binance is also reassessing US venture capital investments and may delist tokens from US-based projects, including USD Coin.

News of Binance's potential disassociation from US partners follows a Reuters report that the global exchange had secretly moved over $400m from accounts held by its US partner. Binance states that they are conducting a careful cost-benefit analysis to protect their global user base.

US regulators have increased scrutiny of crypto companies this year following multiple industry collapses. New York's top financial regulator has ordered the company behind Binance's stablecoin to stop issuing the token.

Binance has suspended all dollar bank transfers after a US banking partner, Signature Bank, reduced exposure to crypto firms.

In the southern Pakistani city of Karachi, members of the Pakistani Taliban launched an attack on a police compound, resulting in the death of at least four people, including three security personnel and a civilian.

Gunfire and explosions were heard outside the compound, which houses various police buildings and residences. Two su***de bombers were killed, one of whom detonated his explosives after entering the police building.

The TTP claimed responsibility for the attack. A joint operation involving police and paramilitary forces cleared the building within three hours of the attack.

The assault is the latest in a series of attacks by armed groups in Pakistan since November, when the Pakistani Taliban ended a ceasefire with the government.

Japan has accused China of violating its airspace with surveillance balloons and demanded that China confirm the facts and ensure that such incidents do not occur again.

The Japanese government is considering relaxing rules on the use of weapons by its armed forces in order to defend against airspace intrusions, while China has denied the accusations, saying that Japan lacks conclusive evidence.

The United States has also shot down a Chinese balloon and discovered three more unidentified craft, leading to a reassessment of past airspace intrusions by Japan.

Air India, the largest international airline and second-largest domestic carrier in India, has placed orders for 470 Boeing and Airbus passenger jets to meet the surging demand for affordable air travel.

The order includes 220 Boeing aircraft valued at $34bn, and 250 passenger jets from Airbus. The Boeing purchase is the third-largest sale in dollar value and second-largest in quantity for the US plane maker.

The order, estimated to be worth tens of billions of dollars, will help Air India's owner, Tata Sons, compete against discount rivals, including India's dominant carrier, IndiGo.

The Indian Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, and US President Joe Biden discussed the deal, which will help India meet the growing demand for air travel over the next 15 years.

The order sends a strong signal that India wants to remain attached to the West, said independent aviation adviser Bertrand Grabowski.

The Airbus deal was applauded by French President Emmanuel Macron and is a sign of the strengthening strategic partnership between India and France.

Amid the devastation caused by last week's earthquakes in Turkey, many Turkish families are providing shelter for survivors who have lost their homes.

Melih Telci, a lawyer from Istanbul, offered his family's summer home in Yalova to a family of four left homeless by the earthquake, providing them with furniture, clothes, and food.

Ayse Arslan, a housewife from Armagan village in Trabzon, hosted a couple from Malatya in her empty apartment, and has since taken in 21 survivors.

Rumeysa Otoman, who lost 17 family members in the earthquakes, is hosting 60 survivors in her home in Bursa, and is working to bring more.

Volunteer groups have sprung up across the country to coordinate efforts to house the survivors, with many believing that it is their duty to step in and help.

The Turkish government is also providing temporary accommodation, but with an estimated two million displaced people in need of shelter, many individuals and families are offering their homes to help those in need.

India's Securities and Exchange Board (SEBI) is conducting an investigation into the links between Adani Group and some of the investors involved in the failed $2.5 billion share sale of the conglomerate.

The probe is aimed at examining any potential violations of Indian securities laws and any conflicts of interest that may have arisen during the share sale process.

The watchdog is particularly focused on the relationships between Adani Group and two Mauritius-based firms, Great International Tusker Fund and Ayushmat Ltd, which participated as anchor investors.

The investigation is also focusing on Elara Capital and Monarch Networth Capital, two of the 10 investment banks that managed the share offering, to rule out any conflicts of interest.

The allegations against Adani Group were made by a US-based short-seller Hindenburg Research, which accused the conglomerate of improper use of offshore tax havens and stock manipulation. Adani has denied the charges.

The fallout from Hindenburg's allegations has become a cause for concern at the national level, leading to calls for an independent probe.

India's Ministry of Corporate Affairs has launched a review of Adani's past financial statements and is in touch with SEBI.

Popular WordPress plugin had a heavy zero-day flaw. A zero-day vulnerability found during a premium WordPress plugin is being actively exploited within the wild, researchers are saying, urging users to get rid of it from their websites until a patch is released. WordPress security plugin(opens in new tab) makers WordFence uncovered a flaw in WPGateway, a premium plugin helping admins manage other WordPress plugins and themes from one dashboard. According to the researchers, the flaw is tracked as CVE-2022-3180, and carries a severity score of 9.8. It allows threat actors to form an admin user on the platform, meaning they’d have the power to require over the whole website if they so pleased. "Part of the plugin functionality exposes a vulnerability that permits unauthenticated attackers to insert a malicious administrator," said Ram Gall, Wordfence researcher. Wordfence added it successfully blocked quite 4.6 million attacks, against over 280,000 sites, within the last month, alone. That also means the amount of attacked (and possibly compromised) websites is perhaps much, much larger. A patch for the flaw isn't yet available, the researchers said, and there's no workaround. the sole thanks to stay safe, for the present, is to get rid of the plugin from the web site altogether, and watch for the patch to arrive, researchers stressed. Webmasters trying to find indicators of compromise should check their sites for admin accounts named “rangex”. Furthermore, they ought to explore for requests to "//wp-content/plugins/wpgateway/wpgateway-webservice-new.php?wp_new_credentials=1" within the access logs, as that's an indication of an attempted breach. This sign, however, doesn’t necessarily mean it had been successful. Other details are scarce for the instant, given the actual fact that the flaw is being actively exploited, which the fix isn't yet available. WordPress(opens in new tab) is that the world’s preferred website builder, and per se, is under c
