warnings of a catastrophic storm such as hearken in baz dalin, florida, after leaving cuba in the dark. ah unearned hannah, this is ours. her life from london also coming up as russia celebrates the results of its stage, managed referendums in occupied parts of ukraine. the white house warms the consequences of russian annexation will be real and extraordinary. and security has stepped up around european energy infrastructure after damage to, to pipelines from russia to europe is blamed on sabotaged. ah hello,

a powerful category for storm is expected to make landfall in the state of florida soon bringing with it, winds of up to 250 kilometers per hour and devastating storm surges of up to 5 and a half meters. hurricane ian is all a threshold of the most dangerous category, 5 status, and more than 2 and a half 1000000 people are under mandatory evacuation orders. in gain strength over wal mart gulf of mexico waters. after battering cuba, where at least 2 people were reported dead, florida's governor has warned of a nasty 2 days ahead, urging rosters to find shelter and remain there until a storm passes. curos slowly beginning to restore power on the eastern end of the island after the hurricane caused a nationwide blackout. a powerful storm had the country's west coast on tuesday, causing the electrical grid to collapse and plunging about 11000000 people into darkness to people who also been reported dead. i'm been c news correspondent, crisp alone is live in tampa,

florida. tell us about the situation there at the moment. yeah, lauren, we are still on the far northern end of this storm, which we're still waiting to make landfall right now. the winded rain is starting to pick up as we go through a thicker band of precipitation and one of these outer band. but this storm is really focused much to the south of us. it is about to make landfall probably in the next hour or so. moving very slowly, its focus mostly around the fort myers sanibel island area. that area is really getting pounded right now with high storm surge. also high winds heavy rain. they're seeing cars floating in the streets. buildings are being over top by wave as this storm and pushes the water on shore. here in tampa for most of the day the wind has been blowing off shore and that's been actually pushing water out of tampa

bay. coinciding with low tide, meaning that the bay was emptying out of water. so no flooding here, no storm surge here just yet. but they know that this is really the beginning of this storm in the tampa area. and have people brutally listen to the governor's advice to take shell, to find someone to go. that's that safer. it seems that way. for the most part, i mean obviously in any storm, you're going to have people who stick around to decide not to evacuate when they're asked to evacuate. but with tampa not experiencing a major hurricane directed in 100 years that seem to snap people to attention. and when it looked like the storm was coming directly to tampa bay, people seem to really take heed of the warnings they were preparing, getting supplies, and those that were in evacuation area see by enlarged for the most part to have

evacuated christian and thank you very much indeed for to, to thank you. i see us as warned russia against annexing for areas it's occupied in ukraine following what is described as sham referendums. on joining russia, washington says the consequences would be real and extraordinary. it's already planning to impose new sanctions along with the e. u. we do not accept the referenda and any kind of annexation in ukraine and were determined to make the kremlin pay for this further escalation. so we propose sweeping new important bands on russian products . this will keep russian products out of the european market and deprive russia of an additional 7000000000 euros in revenues. were also

proposing to extend the list of products that cannot be exported to russia anymore . the amos here to deprive the kremlin military complex of key technologies. and that's well over the last 5 days in russian occupied parts of her son as appreciate, don't ask and no hands. huge margins of victory were reported in all 4 territories, and the russian foreign ministry says action will be taken soon. in response, russia is expected to portray any attempt to re capture the areas as an attack on russia itself. marvellous, more from moscow. in the red square in the center of moscow, not far from the kremlin preparations are already underway, putting up the stage for a huge national celebration for what is going to happen. and what is going to happen is basically, these 4 regions are going to be officially announced as

a next to the russian federation. those are processed to that, which has already started to day when the leaders of those, the pro russian leaders of those 4 regions addressed requests to president vladimir put in to consider the annexation. then they will come here in person to meet with president putin. that's when they sign a treaty and that it will be taken to the constitutional court to study its compatibility with ration constitution. then it will be voted by the 2 chambers of the parliament before it becomes law. and once it becomes law, it will be at definitively and officially announced by president vladimir, put in himself in a, in a, in a, in a, an address to the nation. char stratford is in the ukrainian capital cave, with more on reaction there to the referendum results. well, as you can imagine, the message here from the ukranian capital cave is one of defiance and complete

rejection of what they say. all these sham referendums that lack any kind of legal basis in international law. we've been speaking to a number of officials over the last couple of days, one of which was an adviser to president zalinski, michael mckayla pal de leon. and he says that these referendums mean absolutely nothing to ukraine in terms of its military strategy in terms of its goals. they are still determined and vowing to take back control of all the russian occupied areas including cry. mia. he also said that the referendum basically put an end to any potential resumption in any peace negotiations. and he called to get again as we've heard time and time again over the last 7 months from the ukrainians. they demanding more weapons and they are expecting an escalation in fighting in the

coming days and weeks ahead. with respect to the fighting, we understand that they are ongoing battles. a lot of which are very much focused on the town of lee man. now that town is northeast of a large urban centre of slum yancey. the offense evil, the counter offensive being mounted in that area only man is part of ukrainian forces counter offensive to started a couple of weeks ago. and so great success south of the, the city of called kevin is seeing them take back thousands of square kilometers of land and the russian region of north rosetti. and which name is georgia? as announced, restrictions on incoming cause of tens of thousands fled across the border to escape russia's mobilization drive huge keys of russian citizens, mostly men of military age and formed falling britons conscription announcement last week to bolster his army in ukraine. traffic jam leading to the back in the last border. crossing, stretched for about 15 kilometers on tuesday. when 260000 men,

a thought to have left russia. since malaysian mobilization was declared fleeing to a nearby kazakhstan, finland, georgia and mongolia. the parents of massa minnie who died after being detained by rounds morality police have filed a complaint against the officers who arrested her demonstrations across iran, continued nearly 2 weeks after nationwide protest began rights groups as at least 75 people have been killed in the unrest critics of accused police or firing directly at protesters. i mean he was detained for not wearing her. he job properly . her family has requested a thorough investigation into her death escalade to wrestle santo's in the the iranian capital terran and wrestle in the last hour, present, racy, has been speaking on television. what did he say about the protest? well, it was his 1st televised interview. since the, i'll break off their protests that are now continued since about almost since 2

weeks. and so he said that matter, massa, i mean is that has 7 him and just right after he heard about her her, and he heard about her that he called the family and can waive his condolences. and he said that he understand that that peaceful protest but say that the riots ended, the violence is not acceptable. he says that the security forces in iran are sacrificing their lives to, to, to keep the county as secure. he also, this is where the much critical he said that the authorities must be open to the weaves on how to implement the laws. so it's not clear whether he means that the security forces party, particularly the morality policy, should be more flexible when it comes to the mandatory. he job law in iran or not will seem to come this will see, but as of now and what we see in the sixty's is that there. but that, that,

that the morality policy is a refraining from imposing demand that the huge up on the women in iran since the odd break or did they did. they did the protest. and he also says that we will wait for the judiciary or with the judiciary report on the case of mazur, m, he needs that. and he said that the forensics, within the couple of days in coming days, they're going to present the final report. and based on that, they are going to take the action. so as i said, this was his 1st tell was interview. since the protest started in iran and on their purchase, what, what is the latest an acre they carrying on lay dying down to the spot that well last night there have been a, some protests in, in some cities in iran, but it seems that they are losing the momentum, the participation to this, this protest is declined. we do not know whether it is because of the internet

restriction at that was put on by the government and is preventing them from organizing or whether it is about the heavy presence of the security forces. industries and they're heavy handed measures, but so far we can say that they are the participation is, is think law is declining. so for $4.00 to $1.00 people, according to the officials, at least $4.00 to $1.00 people have been, have been killed, including the members of the security forces. and also the official sources there says that more than 1200 people who were leading this protest had been identified. and many of them have been arrested. meanwhile, to have been the pro government portez rallies as well. that took place, particularly in mesh, had an entire run, but so far we haven't seen any direct clashes between this pro and anti government rallies on protesters. my shows had a life and tear on 1st. thank you very much. still to come the shelf ha, supporters of sheerly demo, tedra santa clash with police and rockets,

but that's pushing more inland on thursday toward the northwest. so got a bit of a breather and have forecast on thursday. but yet you see this batch, the slug of rain off toward the atlantic. let's press play. see where that goes on friday. you get still running right into the islands of ireland and britain. and i do think we will see some weather alerts in play here for just how intense that rain will be off to africa and really from the southwest of chad, right through to see are the own. that's where we've got bursts of rain. and as we head toward the south, those winds are ramping up across south africa's northern cape province. this is concerning, that's going to hike up the risk of wild fires and then some rain across south africa's coastline on thursday. don't forget the umbrella that shop they buy for now. ah! little is more distressing for a woman than him 20 pregnancy going horribly wrong. aside from then being punished,

and killing at least 2 people. the parents of mass armine, who died after being detained by ron's morality police for not wearing her. he job properly filed a complaint against the officers who arrested her as demonstrations across iran continue, president racy, has warned, but no one will allow chaos to jeopardize people. security and the european union is planning more sanctions on russia. hold on what they've described as cham referendums in ukraine allots were held in russian occupied parts of 4 provinces with huge margins of victory reported. russia has called a un security council meeting over damage to its not stream gas pipelines in the baltic sea. the un nato of called the leaks sabotage and european governments are investigating. russia has dismissed claims. it was behind the niece as predictably stupid, nor stream one normally ships gas directly to germany. but deliveries were suspended by russia earlier this month because of

a stand off over sanctions imposed due to the war and ukraine. sweden and denmark, festivals of the leeks, near the island of foreign home on tuesday. on half the gas in the damaged pipelines is now escaped with denmark's energy agencies, as the environmental impact is limited. shipping in the area has been restricted and noise military has been deployed to protect oil and gas installations. nearby steadfast reports from live men in germany, where the north stream one pipeline deliveries reached land. a controversial project from the start with billions of dollars is now as good as that. not $31.00 and $2.00 will not transporting gas to germany at the time of the leaks, but looking at the extent of the damage. experts wonder if they will ever be used again. while it's still anyone's guess was responsible for what looks like an attack on the pipelines the leaks reveal how fall noble europe's energy supply is. especially since rush us invasion of ukraine. be any of all the sooner we are in

a serious situation than you. we've long been aware that the baltic season area of high attentions look at the rhetoric around finland and sweden's membership of nato . the baltic sea is an area where you have to expect this many and europe of youth rush of sabotaging their own pipelines and speculated that more attacks could come . moscow has rejected these accusations, saying it's the americans who benefit most from the price of gas going up. analysts say a high level of expertise is needed to cause this kind of damage, unit infrastructure for the unit equipment for it. you need money for it, need expertise for it, it can't be done that easily. so there's, there's a couple of organizations only that can actually do this. which also means you can hedge that me into bring in probably a lot more intelligence then military to anticipate anything that might happen. and that might need to a much more secure system. hundreds of millions of cubic meters of gas which were left in the pipelines has been pouring into the baltic sea. the main gas leaking

from north stream into the balls, se, if me saying this has a much larger impact on global warming, then to c o 2. if the guys it's burn, depending on how much of it is absorbed by sea water and how much goes up in the air, that's let's say a to do as much damage to the climate as a c o 2 emissions of a metal, large city like health thank whole entire year. just a few days before the leaks were detected, hundreds of germans held the rally, demanding that the government start operating northridge to like many and europe. germans are struggling to pay their energy bills. after russia got supplies in response to sanctions imposed by the west, make sure that we have reasonably priced got the game and that the sanctions are ended. that's why here, germany has been looking for alternatives to russian gas. the damage to know what stream pipes have made it even more clear that the country needs a more secure supply of energy. steadfast and al jazeera in lookin on the baltic

sea. that's christianson is the executive director of greenpeace, nor dicky jones. his lie from copenhagen. thanks very much for being with us. how damaging do you think these links will be? very, very bad, to be honest. i mean, this is a huge we are witnessing at the moment. i mean this pipeline system, no stream one and all stream to with it's for pipeline, i mean consists so much. and as we get from today's authorities this evening, they expecting that there is nothing to be done to stop the leak. it is only waiting for it to, to meet and there is to made right now more than 770000000 cubic meters of meeting will be leaking to be to the atmosphere and that's a significant climate impact. the cost me thing is such a aggressive and potent time of gas. so this would be a problem with us for a long time. if you, if you, if you look at the impact just over 20 years,

this actually is comparable to what in mark is a meeting in a full year. so, so this is a big factor more on the climate and generally rather than the local environment that right, that's what we suspect at the moment. but i have to say that there's a lot of uncertainty about the impact in the same leakages from, from on the water spills because we have not seen so many of those. and there's a lot of researched on funding and therefore think it's too early to say, especially when we're dealing with a leakage of this magnitude. of course, most of the meet the most likely will travel through the water column quite quickly and evaporate into the air that much fear. but the, but there will likely be a local impact as well on the, on the, on the bottom, on the fish stocks, etc. but exactly how big it is, i think it's going to be c. and if you can go to mitigation without it. if it's a gas stream more difficult and say if it were oil spill, that would be something more tangible to deal with. yeah,

there's really not much to do right for me and i think that's at least what, what we understand that it is very difficult to to stop the leakage as long as it's still gas in the pipe. so. so right now these are all, he says basically to wait it out and that is not you didn't successful the tim elsewhere to, to do anything else. one thing you could do, of course, is to ignite the meeting on the surveys. these were the mean that it will basically burn by the sort of coach in the very aggressive me saying not reach the atmosphere, but rather will be converted into c o 2 immediately, which has a much this impact. the authorities like so far, decline to do that. i don't know if that is why cycle, but this would be hugely consider us because this is not a small leakage mattresses and thank you very much indeed. w expertise. thank you for donors. the bank of england is announced an emergency intervention to protect
