Ukraine: First grain ship in Russia deal ready to sail
The blockade of Ukrainian ports has led to food shortages and price hike since the war
President Volodymyr Zelensky says the first grain ship from Ukraine since Russia's invasion is ready and waiting for the signal to leave the port.
Mr Zelensky was speaking during a visit to the port of Chornomorsk, a week after a UN-led agreement to resume export, but this will be more of a testing of the waters than an unblocking of a major supply route.
And Instagram says it is pausing a rollout of new features on its app following an online backlash from users, including celebrities and influencers.
Plus why Europe's biggest economy - Germany has grounded to a halt, despite significant growth in France and Spain.
