Ukraine is reportedly ready to accept a 30-day ceasefire proposed by the US following peace talks in Saudi Arabia. A joint statement between the two countries said Volodymyr Zelenskyt's delegation "expressed its readiness" to take the next step towards ending the war, but now Russia must also agree.

It read: "Ukraine has expressed its readiness to accept the US proposal for an immediate temporary, 30-day ceasefire, which may be extended by mutual consent of the parties, subject to acceptance and simultaneous implementation by the Russian Federation. The United States will convey to Russia that reciprocity from Russia is key to achieving peace." The statement also announced the ban on intelligence sharing with Ukraine had been lifted and the US will resume its security assistance.
