US envoys meet with Putin in Moscow on Ukraine talks, then head for Dublin to see Zelenskyy MOSCOW (AP) — U.S. envoys held talks about the fighting in Ukraine with Russian President Vladimir Putin at the Kremlin.

The talks resulted in an agreement on a large prisoner exchange, though no breakthrough was made in ending the nearly 5-year-old conflict. The U.S. envoys aim to involve Europe in negotiations, but Moscow is resistant. They will now head to Dublin, Ireland, to brief Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. He sees a political opportunity for peace due to changes in the U.S. Congress and upcoming elections in Europe. Meanwhile, fighting continues, and Ukraine faces new disruptions in its Starlink internet service.

New guideline urges routine prostate cancer screening for middle-aged men WASHINGTON (AP) — The American Cancer Society is recommending routine prostate cancer screening for more middle-aged men, in a major change to its guidelines. That means a blood test for what's called PSA, or prostate-specific antigen. The new guideline says men at average risk of getting prostate cancer should get a PSA test every two years between the ages of 50 and 69. It says men at high risk, including Black men and those with a strong family history of prostate cancer, should get yearly PSA checks and start earlier at age 45. An abnormal PSA doesn't mean that a man has prostate cancer, but may require further testing.
