Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has met for more than four hours with Fidel Castro, but provided no new details about the ailing Cuban leader's health.

Chavez arrived in Havana late on Friday for a weekend visit that will include the airing of his weekly radio and television programme from the central provincial capital of Santa Clara.

In two new official photographs released by state media, Castro is wearing the red, white and blue track suit that has become his typical dress during his convalescence.
