FACEBOOK chief executive Mark Zuckerberg said last night that Russian internet investment group Digital Sky Technologies (DST) had made a $200m (£126m) investment in the social networking site.

DST will receive a 1.96 per cent stake in preferred stock, valuing the company at $10bn – $5bn less than when Microsoft bought its stake in 2007.
