According to a criminal affidavit signed by FBI Special Agent Courtney Bongiolatti, Zachary Clark, 40, operated several ISIS-frequented channels on an encrypted messaging app—apparently Telegram or another similar application—disseminating bomb-making information and terrorist propaganda. Over several months in the spring and summer, the FBI employed the use of several confidential informants and undercover agents in order to infiltrate these chat rooms and establish a rapport with Clark, the affidavit says....

Arsalan Khawaja, 39, was arrested Tuesday morning after being pulled over while driving in Sydney. He was charged at the Parramatta Police Station, in the city’s west, with forgery by making a false document, attempting to pervert justice and lying to police. At a brief court appearance, Khawaja was bailed on condition he surrender his passport and report to police three times as week. The arrest comes as Usman Khawaja prepares with the Australia squad in Adelaide ahead of Thursday’s first test against India, the start of a crucial four-match series in which the home side could challenge India’s position as the world’s top-ranked test team....

The Steelers took a quick 7-0 lead with 12:44 left in the first quarter against the Browns on Sunday after a three-and-out and a blocked punt on their first possession of the 2017 season. Pittsburgh’s Tyler Matakevich blocked the punt, and Anthony Chickillo recovered it in the end zone for the touchdown. Cleveland was forced to punt after a three-and-out in which DeShone Kizer faced a third-and-23 just two plays into his first start....

Baker Mayfield threw an interception in what should have been closing time, rookie Joe Burrow led a touchdown drive in response and Cleveland led by only five points with 5:27 remaining. Given the amount of pressure on Mayfield and the Browns after a Week 1 dud against the Ravens, it was easy to see this going the wrong way. Instead, the strength of first-year coach Kevin Stefanski’s scheme — the core of what Cleveland needs to be for the remainder of the 2020 season — showed up when it mattered most in a 35-30 victory....

The most notable absence comes from Beckham, who has participated in only one day of Cleveland’s nine OTAs. He also skipped the team’s voluntary three-day minicamp. When asked about Beckham, Kitchens kept it brief as he told reporters: “I just want to see him.” He also said Beckham has missed “a lot” when it comes to learning the offense. Earlier this month, Kitchens explained he sees no problem with Beckham sitting out the OTAs....

The former BYU linebacker was watching the draft live Friday night when he saw the Rams make their third-round selection. Cleveland was next on the clock and Takitaki didn’t think he’d be selected by the Browns because he hadn’t talked with the team much leading into the draft.

Upon NFL appeal, Watson will be suspended for 11 games, overruling retired judge Sue L. Robinson, who had decided the former Texans QB deserved a six-game suspension in relation to his numerous sexual assault allegations. Cleveland’s massive five-year contract for Watson was a big risk and it will come with much bigger salary cap hits in 2023 and beyond. But in 2022, he counts only a little more than $10 million toward the cap....

The Beast does not seem to want to pursue his other interests this time around, like he did back then when he tried his hand at NFL.

The result means both teams are unable to finish in the top two in Group A, securing a spot for Real Madrid in the round of 16. Paris Saint Germain will clinch first place if the French champions avoid defeat in Madrid in the group’s other game. Adem Büyük scored Galatasaray’s first Champions League goal this season 11 minutes into the first half and the Turkish side looked poised for its maiden win in the group until Diatta scored deep in stoppage time with a shot into the far corner....

With under a minute left in the Penguins’ 4-2 win, Jarry saved a Craig Smith shot and froze the puck. He then said something to Marchand that got his attention. The Bruins’ winger skated between a Penguins defender and the referee and punched Jarry in the face with his right hand.

Mox defeated Best Friends’ Wheeler Yuta in a fun back-and-forth contest in the opening match of Dynamite. For those unaware, the former AEW Champion was scheduled to compete against Brian Kendrick at the event. However, Tony Khan withdrew Kendrick’s participation after some controversial views he aired a few years back resurfaced. Following the match, The American Dragon popped up from behind and had a tense staredown with Jon Moxley....

After disembarking from a flight from Pennsylvania to a regional airport near Moscow, Idaho, sheriff’s deputies fitted the headgear to Kohberger before he was driven away in a pick-up truck, according to a video posted to Twitter by NewsNation correspondent Brian Entin. Kohberger, a 28-year-old criminology student and teaching assistant at Washington State University, is suspected of killing four university students in the Idaho city. The bodies of Ethan Chapin, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle and Madison Mogen were discovered in their rented accommodation on November 13, 2022....

The 22-year-old outfielder — remember, he’s still only 22 — hit three home runs in his first three at-bats. It’s easy to forget just how young (and insanely talented) Harper is because of how long he’s been around and the bumps he’s faced along the way. Wednesday was a good reminder of that. Harper came up again in the seventh and grounded out to second in his fourth at-bat of the game....

DeChambeau chose Brian Zeigler, a lead instructor at DeChambeau’s home course, Dallas National. The two have a close working relationship, DeChambeau told Golf.com. “Brian has been a big part of my life for a while now,” DeChambeau said. “We did a lot of speed training stuff together. He was the motivator and the hype man. He helped me reach new [personal records] I never believed I would get to.”...

After eagling the par-5 13th hole, Watson had a cushy three-shot lead with five holes to play but finished the closing holes in 1-over-par. Casey birdied three of his last four holes to shoot a 5-under 65 and a force a playoff.

He was sitting nicely in the fairway, and Watson was in the rough, but both players scratched out pars and went on to the 18th hole for the third time in less than an hour....

Milwaukee, Wis., radio station 103.7 KISS FM announced Tuesday morning that it would “Break from Drake” for the duration of the Bucks’ series with the Raptors, meaning it wouldn’t play any songs from the Toronto-based rapper, who is a noted Raptors fan. On Wednesday, the Bucks overcame a 59-51 halftime deficit to take Game 1 at home, 108-100.

In Game 2 of Milwaukee’s first-round series with Chicago in the 2022 NBA Playoffs, Khris Middleton suffered a knee injury that sidelined him for the remainder of the postseason. The Bucks didn’t need their second-leading scorer to outlast the Bulls, but they came up short against the Celtics in the second round, losing in seven hard-fought games. As long as the Bucks have their core of Middleton, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Jrue Holiday healthy, they’ll have as good of a shot as any team at winning the title....
