Welcome to the Thursday news quiz presented by the Guardian. With a creative illustration by Anaïs Mims, you have the chance to determine if you are a well-informed individual or a mischievous little dachshund, playfully creating disorder while precariously balancing on a ball and ignoring calls to come. Prepare yourself for fifteen questions encompassing current events, popular culture, and general knowledge. While there are no rewards for participation, we would love to hear about your experiences in the comments section. Let’s get started!

This is the Thursday news quiz, edition number 242.

If you believe there has been a significant mistake in any of the questions or answers – and can provide your reasoning while being entirely confident that you are not trying to fact-check a humorous comment – feel free to express your concerns in the comments below.
