The site of the former nuclear power plant at Chernobyl is back under Ukrainian control after being occupied by Russian troops on the first day of the war.
The BBC's Yogita Limaye was one of the first journalists to reach the site, north of the capital Kyiv, and spoke to some of the people who work there.
For several days, Russian forces cut off electricity at the plant, which was the site of the world's worst nuclear disaster in 1986.
About 170 Ukrainian national guards who secured the plant were taken to the basement and held captive there during the occupation.
