Mark Zuckerberg calls off fight with Elon Musk upon no confirmation

Mark Zuckerberg calls off fight with Elon Musk upon no confirmation


 Mark Zuckerberg, an American billionaire businessman and the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Meta, has reportedly called off a fight with tech billionaire Elon Musk.

All of this started when, on June 21, a user named Mario Nawfal posted on X (Twitter), "META to Release "Twitter Rival" Called THREADS," claiming that Meta is the same company that has previously imitated "Snapchat, video-sharing app TikTok, StumbleUpon, Foursquare, BeReal and Clubhouse, and began coding 'Project 92' three months after Elon Musk acquired Twitter."

Subsequently, Twitter owner Elon Musk wrote, “I’m sure Earth can’t wait to be exclusively under Zuck’s thumb with no other options.”

Later on, a user ‘frankenbeans’ wrote on the platform, “Better be careful Elon Musk, I heard he does Jujutsu now.” Musk then said, “I’m up for a cage match if he is lol.” After finding out all the details, Meta Chief also said that he was ready for the match. 

Last week, Elon Musk said that he cannot challenge Meta CEO’s Mark Zuckerberg this month because of his surgery. Elon Musk reportedly said, I’m getting an MRI of my neck & upper back tomorrow. I may require surgery before the fight.”

Later on, Meta chief said, “I suggested August 26 when he (Elon Musk) first challenged, but he hasn't confirmed.” He accused Musk of making excuses to avoid the fight.

This is in response to Elon Musk's post on Twitter, in which he asserted that he had spoken to the prime minister and minister of culture of Italy and highlighted the event's location and specifics. "My and Zuck's foundations will oversee the fight. X and Meta will host a livestream of the match.”

Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg reportedly agreed to square off in a cage match in June, according to sources. The future of the showdown between the two tech giants was unknown at the time.

Bangladesh Military Expresses Discontent Over Chinese Weapons; Reports 'Sub-Standard' and Faulty Parts

  Bangladesh, a traditional buyer of Chinese military equipment, has raised grievances with Beijing regarding the delivery of defective components and technical malfunctions in its imported military hardware. This issue is not unique to Bangladesh, as other nations like Myanmar have also encountered problems with Chinese fighter jets, according to an ET report. Experts in the Chinese defense industry argue that Beijing lacks the expertise to manufacture highly sophisticated military hardware and is not yet considered a top-tier producer of modern defense equipment. They claim that much of China's weapon systems are based on outdated technology copied from the West. Developing countries often opt for Chinese weapons due to their lower cost compared to similar systems from Western countries. China sells arms through state-run export organizations like the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC), NORINCO, and CVIC. Sources familiar with the matter told ET that the Bangladesh mil
