Russian invasion of Ukraine: images of the last 24 hours (3-4 March)

Description

On the eighth and ninth days of fighting, a fire at Europe's biggest nuclear power station at Zaporizhzhia is put out, with Ukraine accusing Russia of "nuclear terror" in shelling the plant. Russian troops later take over the site of the reactors, which generate a fifth of Ukraine's electricity. Moscow's UN ambassador Vassily Nebenzia denies that Russian forces had shelled the plant, saying the statements "are simply untrue". Russian President Vladimir Putin in a phone call with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz says Moscow is ready for dialogue over Ukraine if all its demands are met. Ukraine plans to hold a third round of talks this weekend with Russian officials to try to end the fighting, one of Kyiv's negotiators says. Putin signs a law imposing 15-year jail sentences for fake news about the Russian armed forces which many fear could severely curtail reporting.
