Two senior Ukrainian officials say a Kyiv delegation that will meet with America’s top diplomat in Saudi Arabia will propose a ceasefire with Russia covering the Black Sea and long-range missile strikes.

Tuesday's talks between the United States and Ukraine in Saudi Arabia are described by media in Denmark and Sweden as a "small step" on the road to peace. Commentators emphasize that everything now depends on how Russia responds to the ceasefire proposals.

Scopely said it would buy Niantic’s video game business, which includes Pokémon Go, for $3.5 billion. Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund acquired Scopely in 2023.

Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF) will pay $3.5bn (£2.7bn) to buy the gaming division of developer Niantic, whose titles include the hit mobile game Pokémon Go. The game involves players walking around in the real world to hunt the collectable creatures, which appear on their phone screens using augmented reality.

Scopely, a mobile game company, will purchase 'Pokémon Go' and other games from developer Niantic in a deal worth $3.5 billion, the companies announced Wednesday.
