loss of life in florida after hurricane ian brings widespread destruction as the search for those trapped and missing goes on. as brazil prepares to vote and sundays presidential election, we look at the incumbent who's behind in the polls, but who supporters say he can't lose? the russia is taking another step towards the annexation of parts of eastern ukraine vladimir putin. his sine decrees recognizing the occupied regions of christ on ends up a region paving the wave of formal annexation on friday. this follows referendums organize this week, which western countries have denounced as a sham ukraine has called an emergency meeting of top officials. president vladimir zalinski says there'll be a robust response, but i don't need to give you a key on the eve of those steps. russia shows with its aggression early on the

battlefield, but with its aggressive policy. it continues to provide artificial referendums, and here it is essential for us, for that all our partners, all the civilized world, leaders and certainly france support ukraine was the united states or want to be very clear about this. united states will never, never, never recognize russia's claims on ukraine. sovereign territory is so call, referenda was a sham and absolute sham. the results were manufactured in moscow. and the true will of the ukrainian people is evident every day is a sacrifice to live, to save their people and maintain independence of their country. the un secretary general antonia good, tara said that russia plans to annex occupied parts of ukraine can not be accepted or diplomatic as a james dave has more from un headquarters in new york. these are the strongest comments from the un secretary general since the start of the war in ukraine. he

talks about so called referenda, which don't reflect the genuine will of the people living in those areas. and on the plans for annexation. he says they go against international law and against the un charter, the founding document of the united nations. it since against every thing the international community is meant to stand for. it slots, the purposes and principles of united nations. it is a dangerous escalation. it has no place in the modern world, it must not be accepted. the un security council is expected to meet as early as friday. the u. s. and albania been working on a resolution condemning russia. it's likely that russia will veto such a resolution because it's a permanent member of the security council, but already the u. s. ambassador linda thomas greenfield has said, if that happens, she'll take things to the un general assembly. and russia has accused the un chief of taking sides in the ongoing conflict. mom at val is in moscow and more on that.

moscow is not listening to what mr. gutierrez is saying, the law moscow is in another world. russia is bracing for celebrations and the historic speech by vladimir putin president vladimir putin. tomorrow. so, i mean, the logic here is very different. we are in the, i'm, i mean, i'm talking from a place where, i mean, things are seen from a completely different perspective. russians are bracing for what they called the correction of history. i think that those territories belong to russia, and that it was wrong in the 1st place to, to let them go. and now it is time. it is the coronation of this, of the sacrifice is given by the, by the russians during this war and before and it's, it's just less than 24 hours before the before it starts. and that is when the president vladimir putin will sign this agreement with the leaders of the. busy for

breakaway regents who have already landed here at moscow, i don't think that russia is really listening to what the secretary general of the united nations is saying. and they think that the you and is taking one side in this conflict. so what's the next move for ukraine? well, al jazeera is worry, challenge has more on that from keith. what is the lensky going to do? well, on friday he is calling for a meeting of the national security and defense council, where we're being told that fundamental decisions for ukraine will be made. clearly, that nerves are jangling in the defense ministry. particularly about the danger of the use of tactical nuclear weapons. the ukrainian military intelligence is now saying that the, the risk is very high, that they all go to be used by russia, against ukrainian troops against ukrainian material against ukrainian

command centers near the front line. and the crane is once again calling for the provision of air defense systems, missile defense systems, from the west, from nato. but ready, this doesn't actually change the ukrainian calculus that much, they are going to carry on doing what they have been doing, which is fighting off the russians as best they can. they say that they are going to take these territories back and they won't stop until they do so. and i think we have to stress here that ukraine militarily is strengthening. and it has been for some time, these very referenda that russia has conducted the mobilize ation. that roger is engaged in the moment. he's really a sign of criminal desperation. it's because of the ukrainian counsellor offensive in khaki of earlier in the months that was very successful, that beat the russians back from a particular area of cock. if

connecting russia with germany were controversial from the start. but since the russian invasion of ukraine, germany in particular has been heavily criticized for making itself too dependent on russian gas. while hundreds of millions cubic meters of gas continue to leak into the baltic sea. everyone is still waiting for answers. what exactly has cost a possibly a repairable damage to the pipelines? i'm who could be behind it? people here on born home island, the island closest to the leaks hope that these questions will be answered soon. some say they know the answer already. i grew up here and we used to the russians flying and submarines in swedish area and so on. i think they are trying to tell us that they can do anything if they want,

but others aren't so sure why moscow would damage its own. 35000000000 dollar project problem here is this, no matter how confidently one can identify how this happened and possibly who caused it in the wide world. people believe who they want to believe, and there is enough, vaguely here the potentially for people to doubt would as the narrative that comes out. and so the energy was continue with people here on bornhold concerned that is more to come. steadfast in elgin era, on born home island in the baltic sea. no, he was president, joe biden has declared a major disaster in the state of florida after one of the strongest hurricanes ever to hit the area caused widespread damage. and still not known how many people have been killed after hurricane ian ripped through her state. patty co haine has the

the number of fresh and tourists who haven't left on tahlia was 53. these can be cancellation, or if they could have missed the flights we are told. here they just wanted to stay in longer. gradually this number has been increasing after the announcement of the mobilization, and yesterday, the number has reached 2500. brazil's presidential your ball scenario is trying to convince the undecided that he should get another term in office before they vote and sundays election. opinion polls suggests he's at least 10 percentage points behind his rival, former president lula da silva. but boston aro, and his supporters and says there is no way he can lose. our latin america editor lucio newman reports from south hollow for motorcycle caravan shot. the prelude to his public appearances there followed by supporters, cries of metal or legend. the minute they see president jade sonata,
