Arizona AG sues Saudi firm over ‘excessive’ groundwater pumping, saying it’s a public nuisanceThere are now fewer than 1000 households living in emergency housing - a 68 percent drop since December, Associate Housing Minister Tama Potaka says. At the end of last year there were 3141 households in emergency housing, and that plummeted to 993 by the end of October. Spending on emergency housing had also reduced from $31.6 million in October last year to $10.7m in October this year. "National campaigned on a promise to deliver real change for people stuck in emergency housing and we are delivering on that promise," Potaka said. The progress was down to the introduction of a new 'Priority One' fast track policy in April that saw households with children move to the top of the social housing waitlist, he said. "Since then, 786 households including 1608 tamariki who were in emergency housing have been placed in social housing through the Priority One pathway." The government also made changes in August that made emergency housing harder to get into, and harder to stay in. People must now prove they meet the criteria for the housing, and meet certain obligations while they are living there. Labour's housing spokesperson Kieran McAnulty argued that was the reason for the drop in emergency housing numbers. "The need hasn't reduced, but applications have," he said. "People don't tend to apply if they know they won't qualify under the new rules." The rate of applications being declined had also spiked. Between 2019 and the end of last year, the percentage declined in a month had never been higher than 3.8 percent - but it leapt to 10 percent in August.

The 37-page report by the bipartisan panel includes explicit details of sex-filled parties and vacations that Gaetz, now 42, took part in from 2017 to 2020 while the Republican represented Florida's western Panhandle.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Tennessee Titans ' most consistent scoring threat in an ugly season now is on the injury report, and that's why they brought back a player for a bit of insurance. Kicker Nick Folk worked through some soreness, making a pair of field goals for Tennessee's only points last week in the Titans' loss to the Jaguars , his longest a 46-yarder. Both Folk and Brayden Narveson were on the field Wednesday during the portion of practice open to reporters, though the Titans listed Folk among six who did not practice. Coach Brian Callahan said it was just some “general soreness" for Folk. But as good as Folk has been this season, he turned 40 last month. So the Titans (3-10) signed Narveson to the practice squad Tuesday after he spent training camp with them in case they need an option Sunday when they host Cincinnati (5-8). “You’re always mindful of it with kickers and that kind of leg soreness," Callahan said. "So he finished the game but was sore. ... He doesn’t do anything on Wednesdays anyway. He’ll try to kick (Thursday), and we’ll see where he’s at. So I don’t really know how to feel about it either way. I just know he’ll kick tomorrow, and then we’ll have a better feel for his status after that.” Folk has an NFL record streak of 85 consecutive field goals made on attempts from less than 40 yards, which included a 39-yarder that put the Titans up 6-0 last week. He ranks 14th in NFL history with 403 field goals and trails Arizona kicker Matt Prater by just four. Prater, who has 407 field goals, currently is on injured reserve. The kicker signed a new deal this offseason after New England traded him to Tennessee in 2023 with Folk going on to lead both the NFL and set a franchise record, making 96.7% of his field goals (29 of 30). Folk has been nearly perfect this season, making all 22 extra point attempts and is 21 of 22 on field goals, including matching his career-long with a 56-yarder earlier this season. Narveson had an impressive preseason for Tennessee, letting Folk focus on preparing for the regular season. The rookie from N.C. State was 6 of 7 on field-goal attempts, including a 59-yarder. He also made a 46-yard attempt as time expired in a 16-15 victory over the Seattle Seahawks. His lone miss was a 58-yarder at the end of the Titans' preseason finale that was nearly returned for a touchdown. He made his first try only to have it nullified because a timeout had been called. Green Bay claimed Narveson when Tennessee waived him at the final roster cutdown. The Packers waived Narveson in October after the kicker missed a league-high five field-goal attempts. “If for some reason he can’t go Sunday, Brayden will be ready to roll in and he’ll kick and do all that,” Callahan said of Narveson. "So obviously it’s nice to have some familiarity with him, and he’s here in case we need him.” Among the Titans who practiced fully Wednesday was quarterback Will Levis . He said after the loss to the Jaguars that he played the second half after getting a shot after aggravating his right, throwing shoulder. He sprained the AC joint in that shoulder early in a win over Miami on Sept. 30 and later missed three games with the injury. “Feel good,” Levis said after a 75-minute practice. “Just going to see how the week goes and see how the body responds, but I definitely feel better than the last time I nicked it up.” AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nflVail Resorts Reports Fiscal 2025 First Quarter and Season Pass Sales Results, and Announces 2025 Capital Plan

Powers will play for the six-player state title in football after outlasting South Wasco County 40-30 in the semifinals Saturday at Cottage Grove. The top-ranked Cruisers will face Harper Charter, the No. 2 ranked team, in the championship game this Saturday. Harper Charter beat the combined Prairie City/Burnt River squad 65-22 in the other semifinal game. The championship game is at 2 p.m. Saturday at Caldera High School in Bend. Both teams enter the title contest with perfect records. Powers overcame four turnovers and a few costly penalties to beat the Redsides in their semifinal game. Just like in the quarterfinals, they trailed early, as well, before taking the lead. South Wasco County had the ball first, and took just three plays to score, with quarterback Storm McCoy connecting with George Barnett on a 54-yard score. It was the first of four touchdown passes, all to different players, for McCoy. Marcel Sandoval’s conversion kick gave the Redsides an early 8-0 lead. The Cruisers then promptly lost a fumble, the first of their four turnovers, and Sandoval recovered for the Redsides. But right away, the Cruisers forced the first South Wasco County turnovers, with Rene Sears recovering the miscue. A big run by Jayce Shorb moved the ball deep into South Wasco territory and Sears connected with Patrick Mahmoud on a 10-yard touchdown pass. Sears added the conversion run and the Cruisers trailed just 8-7 with 6:19 go in the first quarter. The first big Powers penalty came on the ensuring South Wasco County possession, an offsides penalty on a play when the Redsides snapped the ball over the quarterback’s head for what would have been a safety. The Redsides then reached the Cruisers’ 10 yard line, but another snap over the quarterback’s head led to a big loss and the Cruisers stopped the drive when Mahmoud knocked down a fourth-down pass. This time it was Braden Bushnell connecting with Mahmoud on a 67-yard touchdown pass to put the Cruisers in front for good, 13-8 after a failed conversion attempt. After another quick stop, Powers drove the field and Shorb scored from 1 yard out. Bushnell hit Sears for the conversion, giving the Cruisers a 20-8 lead early in the second. The Redsides had another snap over the quarterback’s head on a fourth-down play giving Powers the ball at the South Wasco County 11, but the Cruisers were unable to capitalize. South Wasco County drove the field and McCoy hit Marcos Chavez for a 14-yard score, pulling the Redsides within 20-14. Both teams scored in the final minute of the first half — a 17- yard run by Sears for Powers and an 18-yard pass from McCoy to Coy Shirley for the Redsides — but South Wasco County made its kick and Powers missed its conversion and the Cruisers’ halftime lead was 26-22, a close score by Powers standards for the season. The Cruisers scored quickly in the third quarter, a two-play drive with Sears connecting with Talon Blanton for a pass down to the South Wasco County 11 and then a conversion pass from Sears to Blanton. The Cruisers then recovered a squib kick, with Sears falling on the ball, and Sears connected with Brody Harless for a 6-yard touchdown that gave Powers a 40-22 lead with 6:22 to go in the third quarter. Blanton recovered the squib kick again, with Blanton getting on the ball, but South Wasco County got an interception by Barnett. Powers forced another turnover, with Mahmoud intercepting in the end zone. But Powers had a fumble and this time, the Redsides converted, with Gavin Hagen scoring an 88- yard catch-and-run touchdown on a pass from McCoy. Sandoval’s kick made it 40-30 in the final minute of the third quarter, but the score turned out to be the final touchdown of the game. The final quarter wasn’t without excitement, though. Powers had a long touchdown run by Shorb called back by a penalty, got a sack by Dan Shorb to end the ensuing South Wasco County drive, and then lost its final turnover. South Wasco County got the ball down to the Powers 4, but was unable to score. Blanton had a big sack to push the ball out to the 17 and the Redsides dropped a potential touchdown pass. Powers ran out the clock and advanced to the championship game for the first time since 2003, when Powers lost to Powder Valley. The Cruisers got their last state title in 1998, the last of three straight state championships. In the win over South Wasco County, Sears rushed for 139 yards and the two scores and also completed 6 of 14 passes for 94 yards and two more touchdowns. Bushnell and Jayce Shorb combined for 95 more rushing yards and Bushnell completed 5 of 11 passes for 113 yards. Mahmoud had three catches for 88 yards, while Blanton had three receptions for 62 and Jayce Shorb three for 48. Mahmoud had a team-best 10 tackles while Jayce Shorb had six tackles for loss. For South Wasco County, McCoy completed 18 of 33 passes for 431 yards. Hagan had seven catches for 190 yards and Barnett five catches for 147. Barnett had a team-best 70 rushing yards but the team had negative yards in all, due to McCoy losing 101 yards on 10 carries. Harper Charter, like Powers, is unbeaten on the season and twice beat South Wasco County, 45-6 in September and 53-20 on Oct. 25. The Hornets also beat Joseph, the squad Powers beat in the quarterfinals, 48-7. Unlike Powers, which has six seniors among its 12 players, Harper Charter is a junior-dominated club, with one senior and nine juniors. In the other championship matchups: : Lake Oswego beat Central Catholic 33-24 in one semifinal and West Linn held off Sheldon 28-21 in the other, setting up a championship game between the top two teams. The Lakers and Lions meet at 12:30 p.m. Friday at Hillsboro Stadium. In the secondary 6A championship, for the second 16 teams in the state’s largest classification, rivals and neighbors North Medford and South Medford will square off after North Medford beat Jesuit 42-32 and South Medford shut out Newberg 17-0. The game will be at 5 p.m. Saturday in the stadium the two teams share. : Wilsonville knocked off top-ranked Silverton 32-29 to advance to the final against Mountain View, which beat West Albany 40-17 in the other semifinal. The championship game is at 4:30 p.m. Friday at Hillsboro Stadium. : Top-ranked Marist Catholic dominated Scappoose 41-7 to set up a championship-game rematch against Henley, which won last year’s title over the Spartans 42- 23. Henley edged Cascade 21-14, coming from 14 points down in the fourth quarter and winning the game in overtime. The tying touchdown came with just 19 seconds to go in regulation. The championship game is at 1 p.m. Saturday at Spiegelberg Stadium in Medford. : Vale and Burns will meet for the title. One week after knocking off top-ranked Siuslaw, North Valley was stymied by Vale’s defense and fell 20-3. The Vikings have won 12 state titles, the last in 2015, and are unbeaten this year. Burns, meanwhile, upset No. 2 Banks 22-15, the third straight upset for the 11th-seed Hilanders. Burns fell to Vale 18-12 back in early October. Burns has shut out five opponents and given up one touchdown or less to three others. Vale has given up one touchdown or less seven times and won another game by forfeit. The game will be at 1 p.m. Saturday at Summit High School in Bend. : St. Paul knocked off top-seed Heppner 18-12 to reach the championship game, where the unbeaten Buckaroos will meet Sunset Conference champion Oakridge. The Oakers, the No. 2 seed, also are unbeaten and eliminated Gervais 28-14 one week after also knocking out Myrtle Point. The championship game is at 1 p.m. Saturday at Cottage Grove High School. : Top seed Adrian will face North Douglas for the title after both won semifinal games Saturday. Adrian beat Crane 34-26 to improve to 11-0 on the season. Unbeaten North Douglas beat Crosspoint Christian 50-6 behind another huge game from Hunter Vaughn, who had four touchdown runs and a TD catch and ran for 287 yards on 13 carries. For the season, Vaughn has rushed for 2,654 yards and 45 touchdowns. The championship game is at 4:30 p.m. Saturday at Summit High School.ALL-REMOTE COMPANY/WILMINGTON, Del.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec 9, 2024-- Phreesia, Inc.

Free cash flow 2 was $1.6 million for the three months ended October 31, 2024, as compared to negative $11.6 million for the three months ended October 31, 2023. Cash and cash equivalents as of October 31, 2024 was $81.7 million, a decrease of $5.8 million from January 31, 2024 and down $0.1 million from July 31, 2024. Fiscal Year 2025 Outlook We are narrowing our revenue outlook for fiscal 2025 to a range of $418 million to $420 million from a previous range of $416 million to $426 million, implying year-over-year growth of 17% to 18%. We are updating our Adjusted EBITDA outlook for fiscal 2025 to a range of $34 million to $36 million from a previous range of $26 million to $31 million. Our outlook reflects our strong performance in the fiscal third quarter and our continued focus on margin improvement. We are maintaining our expectation for AHSCs to reach approximately 4,200 for fiscal 2025, compared to 3,601 in fiscal 2024. We are maintaining our expectation for Total revenue per AHSC to increase in fiscal 2025 compared to the $98,944 we achieved in fiscal 2024. Fiscal Year 2026 Outlook We are introducing our revenue outlook for fiscal 2026. We expect revenue to be in the range of $472 million to $482 million. The revenue range provided for fiscal 2026 assumes no additional revenue from potential future acquisitions completed between now and January 31, 2026. We are introducing our Adjusted EBITDA outlook for fiscal 2026. We expect Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $78 million to $88 million. The Adjusted EBITDA range provided for fiscal 2026 assumes continued improvement in operating leverage across the Company through focusing on efficiency. We expect AHSCs to reach approximately 4,500 in fiscal 2026. Additionally, we expect Total revenue per AHSC in fiscal 2026 to increase from fiscal 2025. We believe our $81.7 million in cash and cash equivalents as of October 31, 2024, along with cash generated in our normal operations, gives us sufficient flexibility to reach our fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2026 outlook. Additionally, our available borrowing capacity under our credit facility with Capital One provides us with an additional source of capital to pursue future growth opportunities not incorporated into our fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2026 outlook. As of October 31, 2024 we have no borrowings outstanding under our credit facility. Non-GAAP Financial Measures We have not reconciled our Adjusted EBITDA outlook to GAAP Net income (loss) because we do not provide an outlook for GAAP Net income (loss) due to the uncertainty and potential variability of Other (income) expense, net and (Benefit from) provision for income taxes, which are reconciling items between Adjusted EBITDA and GAAP Net income (loss). Because we cannot reasonably predict such items, a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure outlook to the corresponding GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable effort. We caution, however, that such items could have a significant impact on the calculation of GAAP Net income (loss).

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or loss or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss before interest income, net, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and before stock-based compensation expense and other expense, net. We have provided below a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. We have presented Adjusted EBITDA in this press release and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to be filed after this press release because it is a key measure used by our management and board of directors to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget, and to develop short and long-term operational plans. In particular, we believe that the exclusion of the amounts eliminated in calculating Adjusted EBITDA can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our core business. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors. We have not reconciled our Adjusted EBITDA outlook to GAAP Net income (loss) because we do not provide an outlook for GAAP Net income (loss) due to the uncertainty and potential variability of Other (income) expense, net and (Benefit from) provision for income taxes, which are reconciling items between Adjusted EBITDA and GAAP Net income (loss). Because we cannot reasonably predict such items, a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure outlook to the corresponding GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable effort. We caution, however, that such items could have a significant impact on the calculation of GAAP Net income (loss). Our use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are as follows: Although depreciation and amortization expense are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements; Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect: (1) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (2) the potentially dilutive impact of non-cash stock-based compensation; (3) tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us; or (4) interest income, net; and Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled measures differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these and other limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA along with other GAAP-based financial performance measures, including various cash flow metrics, net loss, and our GAAP financial results.

Additionally, Free cash flow is a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We consider Free cash flow to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by our business that can be used for strategic opportunities, including investing in our business, making strategic investments, partnerships and acquisitions and strengthening our financial position.

Key Metrics (Unaudited) Three months ended October 31, Nine months ended October 31, 2024 2023 2024 2023 Key Metrics: Average number of healthcare services clients ("AHSCs") 4,237 3,688 4,157 3,481 Healthcare services revenue per AHSC $ 17,481 $ 17,845 $ 53,351 $ 54,836 Total revenue per AHSC $ 25,207 $ 24,842 $ 74,605 $ 75,063 The definitions of our key metrics are presented below. AHSCs . We define AHSCs as the average number of clients that generate subscription and related services or payment processing revenue each month during the applicable period. In cases where we act as a subcontractor providing white-label services to our partner's clients, we treat the contractual relationship as a single healthcare services client. We believe growth in AHSCs is a key indicator of the performance of our business and depends, in part, on our ability to successfully develop and market our solutions to healthcare services organizations that are not yet clients. While growth in AHSCs is an important indicator of expected revenue growth, it also informs our management of the areas of our business that will require further investment to support expected future AHSC growth. For example, as AHSCs increase, we may need to add to our customer support team and invest to maintain effectiveness and performance of our solutions for our healthcare services clients and their patients. Healthcare services revenue per AHSC. We define Healthcare services revenue as the sum of subscription and related services revenue and payment processing revenue. We define Healthcare services revenue per AHSC as Healthcare services revenue in a given period divided by AHSCs during that same period. We are focused on continually delivering value to our healthcare services clients and believe that our ability to increase Healthcare services revenue per AHSC is an indicator of the long-term value of our solutions. Total revenue per AHSC. We define Total revenue per AHSC as Total revenue in a given period divided by AHSCs during that same period. Our healthcare services clients directly generate subscription and related services and payment processing revenue. Additionally, our relationships with healthcare services clients who subscribe to our solutions give us the opportunity to engage with life sciences companies, health plans and other payer organizations, patient advocacy, public interest and other not-for-profit organizations who deliver direct communication to patients through our solutions. As a result, we believe that our ability to increase Total revenue per AHSC is an indicator of the long-term value of our solutions. Additional Information (Unaudited) Three months ended October 31, Nine months ended October 31, 2024 2023 2024 2023 Patient payment volume (in millions) $ 1,081 $ 965 $ 3,340 $ 2,970 Payment facilitator volume percentage 81 % 82 % 81 % 82 % Patient payment volume . We believe that patient payment volume is an indicator of both the underlying health of our healthcare services clients’ businesses and the continuing shift of healthcare costs to patients. We measure patient payment volume as the total dollar volume of transactions between our healthcare services clients and their patients utilizing our payment platform, including via credit and debit cards that we process as a payment facilitator as well as cash and check payments and credit and debit transactions for which we act as a gateway to other payment processors. Payment facilitator volume percentage . We define payment facilitator volume percentage as the volume of credit and debit card patient payment volume that we process as a payment facilitator as a percentage of total patient payment volume. Payment facilitator volume is a major driver of our payment processing revenue. Our payment facilitator volume percentage could decline slightly over time should we increase our penetration of enterprise customers that are less likely to use Phreesia as a payment facilitator. ______________________________ 1 Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure.

PUB: 12/09/2024 04:05 PM/DISC: 12/09/2024 04:05 PM http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20241209683231/enA ceasefire deal that could end more than a year of cross-border fighting between Israel and Lebanon’s Hezbollah militant group won backing from Israeli leaders Tuesday, raising hopes and renewing difficult questions in a region gripped by conflict. Hezbollah leaders also signaled tentative backing for the U.S.-brokered deal, which offers both sides an off-ramp from hostilities that have driven more than 1.2 million Lebanese and 50,000 Israelis from their homes. An intense bombing campaign by Israel has killed more than 3,700 people, many of them civilians, Lebanese officials say. But while the deal, set to take effect early Wednesday, could significantly calm the tensions that have inflamed the region, it does little directly to resolve the much deadlier war that has raged in Gaza since the Hamas attack on southern Israel in October 2023 that killed 1,200 people. Hezbollah, which began firing scores of rockets into Israel the following day in support of Hamas, has previously said it would keep fighting until there was a stop to the fighting in Gaza. Here’s what to know about the tentative ceasefire agreement and its potential implications: The terms of the deal The agreement reportedly calls for a 60-day halt in fighting that would see Israeli troops retreat to their side of the border while requiring Hezbollah to end its armed presence in a broad swath of southern Lebanon. President Joe Biden said Tuesday that the deal is set to take effect at 4 a.m. local time on Wednesday (9 p.m. EST Tuesday). Under the deal, thousands of Lebanese troops and U.N. peacekeepers are to deploy to the region south of the Litani River. An international panel lead by the U.S. would monitor compliance by all sides. Biden said the deal “was designed to be a permanent cessation of hostilities.” Israel has demanded the right to act should Hezbollah violate its obligations. Lebanese officials have rejected writing that into the proposal. Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz insisted Tuesday that the military would strike Hezbollah if the U.N. peacekeeping force, known as , does not provide “effective enforcement” of the deal. Lingering uncertainty A Hezbollah leader said the group’s support for the deal hinged on clarity that Israel would not renew its attacks. “After reviewing the agreement signed by the enemy government, we will see if there is a match between what we stated and what was agreed upon by the Lebanese officials,” Mahmoud Qamati, deputy chair of Hezbollah’s political council, told the Qatari satellite news network Al Jazeera. “We want an end to the aggression, of course, but not at the expense of the sovereignty of the state” of Lebanon, he said. The European Union’s top diplomat, Josep Borrell, said Tuesday that Israel’s security concerns had been addressed in the deal also brokered by France. Where the fighting has left both sides After months of cross-border bombings, Israel can claim major victories, including the killing of Hezbollah’s top leader, Hassan Nasrallah, most of his senior commanders and the destruction of extensive militant infrastructure. A complex attack in September involving the explosion of hundreds of walkie-talkies and pagers used by Hezbollah was widely attributed to Israel, signaling a remarkable penetration of the militant group. The damage inflicted on Hezbollah has come not only in its ranks, but to the reputation it built by fighting Israel to a stalemate in the 2006 war. Still, its fighters managed to put up heavy resistance on the ground, slowing Israel’s advance while continuing to fire scores of rockets, missiles and drones across the border each day. The ceasefire offers relief to both sides, giving Israel’s overstretched army a break and allowing Hezbollah leaders to tout the group’s effectiveness in holding their ground despite Israel’s massive advantage in weaponry. But the group is likely to face a reckoning, with many Lebanese accusing it of tying their country’s fate to Gaza’s at the service of key ally Iran, inflicting great damage on a Lebanese economy that was already in grave condition. No answers for Gaza Until now, Hezbollah has insisted that it would only halt its attacks on Israel when it agreed to stop fighting in Gaza. Some in the region are likely to view a deal between the Lebanon-based group and Israel as a capitulation. In Gaza, where officials say the war has killed more than 44,000 Palestinians, Israel’s attacks have inflicted a heavy toll on Hamas, including the killing of the group’s top leaders. But Hamas fighters continue to hold scores of Israeli hostages, giving the militant group a bargaining chip if indirect ceasefire negotiations resume. Hamas is likely to continue to demand a lasting truce and a full Israeli withdrawal from Gaza in any such deal. Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas offered a pointed reminder Tuesday of the intractability of the war, demanding urgent international intervention. “The only way to halt the dangerous escalation we are witnessing in the region, and maintain regional and international stability, security and peace, is to resolve the question of Palestine,” he said in a speech to the U.N. read by his ambassador.
FILE PHOTO: Nov 15, 2024; Arlington, Texas, UNITED STATES; Mike Tyson (black gloves) fights Jake Paul (silver gloves) at AT&T Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Kevin Jairaj-Imagn Images/File Photo "Prince" Lucas Bahdi has signed with Jake Paul's Most Valuable Promotions after fighting on the undercard of Paul's main event against Mike Tyson last week. Bahdi, a 30-year-old lightweight out of Canada, improved his record to 18-0 with 15 knockouts with a decision victory over previously undefeated Armando Casamonica (14-1, 3 KOs) on the Nov. 15 card. That followed a knockout win over H2O Sylve on the main card of the Jake Paul-Mike Perry fight in July. Bahdi is undefeated since making his professional debut in 2019, winning his first 11 fights by knockout. "Signing with an innovative promoter, who puts fighters first, is one of the goals I've been working towards since I turned professional in 2019," Bahdi said in a statement. "I'm thrilled to be joining the Most Valuable Promotions team because I know that Jake Paul's vision for boxers' careers inside the ring and outside the ring will take me to where I want to be... a world champion and a star. "Fighting on the Paul vs. Tyson undercard was just the beginning. I'm excited to keep showing the world what I've got." --Field Level Media REUTERS Join ST's Telegram channel and get the latest breaking news delivered to you.
