UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman is going against popular opinion and predicting that underdog Khalil Rountree will come out victorious against Alex Pereira at UFC 307 in Utah.

The champ also notes that upsets and surprises are not uncommon in Utah, making Rountree a dangerous opponent for Pereira.
After the apparent assassination of Ismail Haniyeh, Hamas is expected to choose Khaled Meshaal as its new top leader. However, there is also a possibility that senior Hamas official Khalil al-Hayya, supported by Iran, could take on the role. Meshaal, who was targeted by Israeli agents in a botched assassination attempt in 1997, has been a central figure in the group since the late 1990s and has worked mostly from exile. He has grappled with the issue of whether to adopt a more pragmatic approach towards Israel or continue fighting for the destruction of the state.
