Ukraine agrees to 30-day ceasefire

This follows talks between US and Ukrainian officials in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

President Trump will be sending his envoy to Moscow in the coming days following Ukraine's commitment to a 30-day ceasefire in the war with Russia. The question now is whether Vladimir Putin will reciprocate and agree to a pause in the fighting.

The Trump administration has also been active in the US - implementing cuts that will halve the staff at the department of education.

And the former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte is due to arrive at the International Criminal Court in the Hague this morning, where he will face charges relating to his war on drugs.
