A speed-cube champion has set a new world record for solving the most Rubik’s Cubes in 24 hours.

George Scholey from Northampton, England broke the record for solving the most rotating puzzle cubes in 24 hours by completing 6,931.

The student at Queen Mary University in London also set a record when he solved 500 puzzle cubes while riding a skateboard.

Now he’s shown BBC News how quickly he can solve one.

    Has no one else noticed that she said that it 12.46 seconds per cube at 12:46? What a coincidence! 😄

    He isn't the world champion in Rubik's cube. He is the world champion in solving the Rubik's cube in 24 hours. Big difference.

    Yoooo props to him for saying how he learned; instead of the good ole, “I use linear algebra to solve it” although, learning the steps to when you need to use it is still a great memory talent. I’ve finally learned how to solo solve, and it took me 2 weeks to learn. Even with that it takes me an hour, So this is still an amazing accomplishment.

Israel supports US-Iran ceasefire but says it ‘does not include Lebanon’ | BBC News

Published

on



Israel has said it supports suspending strikes on Iran, but added the two-week ceasefire “does not include Lebanon”.

A statement from the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel “supports President Trump’s decision to suspend strikes against Iran for two weeks subject to Iran immediately opening the straits and stopping all attacks on the US, Israel and countries in the region”.

It then said: “The two-weeks ceasefire does not include Lebanon”.

Iran and Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, who helped negotiate the ceasefire, both have said the deal covers Lebanon, where Israel has been fighting the Iranian proxy Hezbollah.

US President Donald Trump announced a two-week ceasefire between the US and Iran, if shipping is allowed to move through the Strait of Hormuz.
