Scientists Claim They've Solved Mystery Of Bible's Legendary Garden Of Eden River After 1.6m Years Researchers say they have reconstructed how the Euphrates River formed, tracing its development to two ancient river systems that joined approximately 1.6 million years ago. The study, published in Nature Geoscience, offers an explanation for the geological origins of a waterway that helped sustain early civilisations and is named in the Book of Genesis among the rivers associated with the Garden of Eden. According to the findings described in the report, the modern Euphrates emerged from two previously separate rivers, known as the Paleo-Karasu and Paleo-Murat, which flowed across areas now within Turkey and Syria. Over millions of years, movements in the Earth’s crust altered the landscape and redirected the waterways until they became connected. To reconstruct that history, the researchers combined seismic imaging, satellite observations, geological mapping and analysis of sedi...

 AFCON Qualifiers – CAF hands victory to Nigeria, fines Libya $50,000


The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has awarded three points, and three goals to Nigeria for the abandoned game against Libya.


The decision follows an investigation into the botched October 15 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier in Benghazi by the CAF Disciplinary Board.


Nigeria had walked away from the tie following poor treatment by the host country that left Super Eagles players and staff stranded at an abandoned airport for almost a day.


CAF in its ruling said it found the Libya Football Federation to have breached Article 31 of the African Cup of Nations Regulations as well as Articles 82 and 151 of the CAF Disciplinary Code.


The 5-point decision reads:


The Libya Football Federation is found to have breached Article 31 of the African Cup of Nations Regulations as well as Articles 82 and 151 of the CAF Disciplinary Code.

The match No.87 Libya v. Nigeria of the CAF African Cup of Nations Qualifiers 2025 (scheduled to be played on 15 October 2024 in Benghazi) is declared lost by forfeit by Libya (by a score of 3-0).

The Libya Football Federation is ordered to pay a fine of USD 50,000.

The fine is to be paid within 60 days of notification of the present decision.

All other and further motions or prayers for relief are dismissed.

CAF president, Patrice Motsepe had earlier said that the continental body would not tolerate any lack of sportsmanship and unfair treatment in African football.


With the decision, Nigeria now has seven (10) points from four games.
