RABAT, Dec 22, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - Morocco coach Walid Regragui said Sunday he would continue to be "very careful" with star man Achraf Hakimi at the Africa Cup of Nations as the Paris Saint-Germain full-back recovers from an ankle injury. Regragui suggested on the eve of the tournament's opening game against Comoros that Hakimi was fit, but in the end the Morocco captain played no part in Sunday's 2-0 win in Rabat. "We need Hakimi because he is the best player in Africa and one of the best in the world and no team can afford to be without their best player, but Mazraoui is a fantastic player," Regragui said. "Morocco are a very strong team so it is not a problem to say that Morocco are better than us -- this is the reality. "Morocco are the best team in Africa and one of the best in the world.

Official spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said there was no attempt to breach the fence or create a security situation at any time, and that police dispersed the group after a few minutes. “Visual evidence of these events is available for all to see,” he said, reiterating India’s commitment to safeguarding foreign missions.

ADELAIDE, Australia, Dec 22, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - Coach Brendon McCullum concedes England got their preparations wrong heading into the Ashes, but believes they can salvage some pride in the final two Tests at Melbourne and Sydney. England had just one warm-up fixture in Australia, against their second-tier Lions side, and lost the opening Test in Perth inside two days. Like Perth, that Test was lost by eight wickets and McCullum bizarrely claimed they had "overprepared". Probably we go back to the preparation, that'll be something that gets questioned," McCullum told TNT Sports after the 82-run Adelaide defeat. The fourth Test starts in Melbourne on December 26 and England could freshen up the side.

JAKARTA, Dec 22, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - A coach bus slammed into a barrier on an Indonesian highway early Monday, flipping over in an accident that killed at least 16 people, a rescue worker said. Footage shared by the agency showed rescuers moving a victim into a body bag as the nearby bus lay on its side. Transport accidents are common in Indonesia, a vast Southeast Asian archipelago where vehicles are often old and poorly maintained and road rules regularly flouted. In 2024, at least 12 people were killed when a car crashed into a bus and another car on a busy highway as people travelled to celebrate Eid al-Fitr. And in 2019, at least 35 people were killed when a bus plunged into a ravine on the western island of Sumatra.

She's played roles in classic New York Metropolitan Opera productions including "La Boheme" and "The Barber of Seville" since 2022. - Post-show peppermints -Warren-Steijn said part of the job of including animals onstage at the Met is ensuring that "they are well-treated" and "taken care of." Animal rights advocates over the years have protested the use of live animals in stage productions, especially in Europe. At the Met, Warren-Steijn said the live animals in beloved productions like "La Boheme" are part of the grandeur and world-building that "this company does so well." When Wanda's done performing, the donkey, like many high-caliber artists, demands refreshments -- ideally lots of starlight peppermints.

MOUNT MAUNGANUI, New Zealand, Dec 22, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - The West Indies lost five wickets for just 11 runs on Monday to be 99-5 as New Zealand closed in on victory on the final day of the third Test at Mount Maunganui. On a pitch with large cracks causing inconsistent movement and bounce, seamer Jacob Duffy and spinner Ajaz Patel threatened both edges of the bat. The West Indies still need 363 more runs for victory, while New Zealand require five more wickets to seal the match. Patel struck in the next over, removing Campbell for 16 after a rash attempt to slog down the ground. Duffy then dismissed Alick Athanaze for two and Justin Greaves for nought in successive overs, leaving the West Indies reeling.

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 22, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - Former Malaysian leader Najib Razak lost a bid Monday to have his jail term changed to house arrest, a setback ahead of a separate verdict this week tied to the country's 1MDB scandal. But on Monday, Judge Alice Loke Yee Ching Loke disagreed, saying the royal addendum was not a valid order. Therefore "the court cannot issue an ...order to direct a house arrest", Loke told the Kuala Lumpur High Court. "There is no legal provision for house arrest in Malaysia," the judge added. On Friday, Najib faces yet another verdict in a separate trial linked to the financial scandal that led to his defeat in the 2018 elections.
