Ukraine: Russian forces seize nuclear plant

On the ninth day of Russia's invasion, Ukrainian authorities have said several people were "killed and injured" in a fire at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant, the largest of its kind in Europe. We update you on this, and give you the very latest as we continue our special coverage of what's happening across the country.

Over a million people have now left Ukraine, with over half of them fleeing into neighbouring Poland. At train stations in these countries people are waiting to help refugees in any way they can. We'll hear a conversation with two families in Germany and Poland who have taken in Ukrainians fleeing the war.

As the Russian state continues a crackdown on media freedom and anti-war protests, some Russians are leaving the country. We'll speak to a man who has left and gone to Armenia. We also hear from a woman trapped in Kyiv, who feels unable to leave the city while she cares for her blind husband.

And we'll speak to our correspondents who are covering every angle of the invasion, including science correspondent Victoria Gill who will answer listener questions about the seizure of the Zaporizhzhia plant.
