SOME of the best pictures from around the UK and world this week include police officers standing in a camp of climate protestors at the village Luetzerath near Erkelenz, Germany; and Pope Francis arriving for his weekly general audience in the Paul VI Hall, at the Vatican.

Also pictured is Serbia’s Novak Djokovic reacting with spectators during an exhibition match against Australia’s Nick Kyrgios ahead of the Australian Open tennis championship in Melbourne, Australia.
