Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has been invited to attend the upcoming Group of Seven (G7) summit in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies, two government sources told CBC News.

Bin Salman, known as MBS, is a powerful figure in the Middle East and his oil-rich country is seen as a key player in hopes of brokering peace as the deadly war in Gaza drags on.

Sources with knowledge of the invite spoke to CBC News on the condition they not be named. The Saudi embassy has not confirmed whether bin Salman will make the trip to Alberta next week.

Saudi Arabia is not a G7 member, but other world leaders are often invited for discussions at the annual summit.
