Here's a roundup of everything we know happened on day nine of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Russia attacks Europe's largest nuclear power plant
Russian forces seized the Zaporizhzhia plant after some buildings were hit by shelling, which Ukraine says led to deaths and injuries.
The UN's nuclear watchdog said radiation levels and the safety of reactors were not affected.
At one point the power plant was in flames due to shelling, but this was extinguished.
IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi said both Zaporizhzhia and the now-closed Chernobyl were under the effective control of the Russian military.
International monitors say no radioactive material was released and the plant is safe.
At least 47 people killed in air strikes
Forty-seven people were killed in Russian air strikes on a residential district of the city of Chernihiv on Thursday, regional authorities have said.
Rescue work had to be suspended on Thursday due to heavy shelling, according to the local emergency services.
A total of 148 people, mostly civilians, have died since the beginning of hostilities in the region, the local authorities add.
The city of 300,000 people is in the north of the country, close to the borders with Russia and Belarus.
John Lewis and Waitrose stop selling Russian products
John Lewis and Waitrose have said they'll no longer sell products made in Russia.
The items banned by the two chains include Russian vodka and one line of pizza oven pellets.
They said they are working with their suppliers to review products that have ingredients or components of Russian origin.
The move follows the decision by UK supermarkets Sainsbury's, Morrisons and Co-op to axe sales of Russian-made vodka.
Russians 'shot 33 unarmed civilians in my town' says Ukrainian sailor in Liverpool
A Ukrainian ship's captain docked in Liverpool today said Russian troops massacred around 33 unarmed civilians in his home town of Kherson this week.
But Grandad-of-two Volodmyr Sodorenko, master of the Elbstrom cargo vessel, has been working at sea for weeks and has no idea when he will be able to return to his family in Ukraine.
Volodmyr, 59, left his home to work on the ship on December 29 and described how he has been desperately trying to maintain contact with his wife, two daughters and grandchildren while away at sea.
Volodmyr is one of many Ukrainian sailors left in turmoil by the catastrophe facing his home country - and has spent recent weeks serving alongside three Russian crew members.
He told the ECHO: "We don't talk about it, I don't want to ask their opinion. We have to work together, what can we do."
Volodmyr said in recent hours communication networks have gone down in Kherson, which remains the only city the Russian invaders have taken full control of.
