down on a convoy of ukrainians, trying to cross the front line to bring back family from occupied territories. at least 30 people were killed. well, this is what's happening at the moment in a bit of detail. the areas in red, a controlled by russia and these are the regions came by russia on friday in total . it's about 15 percent in the ukraine's territory and includes parts it's still under ukrainian control. crimea mandel is came by russia in 2014. and in bomb asthma, i was standing for the anthem of the country. they just become part, or at least according to moscow, the leaders are for ukrainian regions appeared in red square with president vladimir putin. a very public sign of loyalty hours after a signing ceremony that saw them become part of the russian federation. valentina valentino, which put him russia has held so called referendums in the 4 partially occupied

areas of ukraine over the last week. the votes denounced by western government and by keith as a sham all delivered a resounding yes to joining russia, nor will but let all of their choice of the people in the areas of dimansky hands separate. sia al her son is not up for discussion. it's been made, russia will not betray it. and the authorities in here today should treat that free will of the people with respect even, and no other way. that's the only path to piece that you model. we will defend our land using all forces and means at our disposal. it's not. we can do everything we can to protect the security of our people is easier. luscious illegally annexed about 15 percent of ukraine's total area land equivalent to the size of portugal. in his speech, president putin said the population of the 4 regions would be russian citizens forever. and while he made no mention of nuclear weapons, his previously said nothings off the table when it comes to defending what in his

eyes is now russian territory. that's raised phase of an escalation, if ukrainian attacks in parts of the russian clay regions continue to be on a darkened blankness. them us that out, they'll try to ensure fix of images on television. but people's real emotions will be very far away from what's being shown. let people understand that politics is now on the battlefield on a whole different level on what voted for. and what sign is not important. and that since the criminal cannot offer anything comforting to the russians, rossimer or what the authorities did or for the public was this carefully managed celebration. the patriotism was clear, he appetite, among ordinary russians, were prolonged conflict. perhaps less so. the de bother how da 0 says you're hearing there an attack on a civilian confines, parisha has killed it is 30 people. this includes children and he say 88 others have been. and yet,

why challenge reports now from cause they'd come to help to pick up relatives and deliver supplies to rush unoccupied areas. and this was how they died . cut down next to their cars for in them, blood pooling among the shattered glass. wouldn't you send me this? it today? it's 710 russian troops launched 3 missiles at the call market. in this operation or keith highway civilians trying to cross the checkpoint for the occupied territory were hit late the mirror, bullied him. russia has denied responsibility and thrown the accusations back at ukraine. how is after the attack? let me put in formerly annexed for ukrainian regions. the un is condemned. this is illegal for the kremlin, put on a patry arctic party and moscow regardless. president lensky is being pushed to respond after meeting defense and security chiefs. it was his turn for

a big announcement, my role beaumont street. we are taking our decisive step please, by signing ukraine's application for acceleration. accession tonight, rushes invasion of ukraine has already driven sweden and finland into nato's protection. now, moscow's big nightmare ukraine's membership may happen. but all 30 nato countries have to agree before a new member is admitted. and aspirant nations have to commit to the peaceful resolution of any territorial dispute. that's something that ukraine is clearly unable to do, was, is defending itself from an invasion. it sees as an existential threat. so the alliance is making no promises yet a decisional membership. of course has to be taken by all 3rd allies and we take these decisions boy consensus all refocus. now. it is only providing an immediate support to ukraine and to halt repair and defend

itself against the russian, brutal invasion inside nato, or out give says it'll fight on lemon. him northern didn't. he asked russian troops are surrounded and on the verge of a local defeats moscow. says it's new acquisitions, a russian forever. ukraine is trying to prove, otherwise. we'll reach helen's. i'm 0 here. we are as president joe biden, us at american. its allies won't be intimidated by pigeon threats that his government will never recognize russian claims or the ukrainian territory. still serve our full support for nato. america's fully de period prepared with our nato allies as a friend, every single inch of nato territory. every single inch, so mister prudent, don't misunderstand what i'm saying. every inch, all un security council is going to hold a vote on condemning rushes,

annexation of ukrainian territory. our diplomatic editor james base joins us live from united nations in new york, and james, international communities already made it clear that they don't recognize the result of these votes. they said it's a sham and it's a legal. so what is the purpose of this vote in the security council today? in the what is to show the security council's position and make each of the 15 members of the security council declared that position the resolution has been drawn up by albania. and by the us and the u. s. representative of the security council, the us ambassador than to thomas greenfield is addressing the council right now. she's just actually read some quotes from the secretary general of the united nations. antonia terrace, who in the last 24 hours, said that the referenda, which he called not, not legitimate referenda deserve to be condemned. she also went on to say that this organization is referring to the un was built on an idea that never again would one

country be able to take territory from another. and she said, that's exactly what's happening here. so the us ambassador, trying to rally support this last moment before the vote of all the 15 security council members. we know, i think pretty certainly how russia is going to vote. russia has been condemned here. russia is a permanent member of the security council and russia without doubt, in the vote that we're going to see very shortly is going to vote against i think more interesting is whether there are any other countries that join russia in opposing the resolution. i think to watch closely china most diplomats only that they think china will not vote against. it won't be a double veto, but china is more likely to abstain. i can tell you the normal life of the un goes on despite these dramatic moments we're seeing in the security council. and immediately before this gathering in the council chamber, it's the last day of france, his monthly presidency of the security council. there was a diplomatic reception,

a luncheon for diplomats and others who work on the security council. i was fortunately invited to that french diplomatic building here in new york. and i can tell you we were all making polite discussions amongst each other. but in the corner of the room, that was the and the chinese ambassador locked in conversations just an hour before i'm speaking to you now. so clearly the russians and the chinese, i don't know what they were saying, but i've been having pretty intense conversations until the last moment i had of this wrote, okay, all right, thank you very much. now denmark's energy agency are saying that gas leaks from 2 major pipelines that run from russia to germany are expected to stop. at some point this weekend for leaks were discovered in the north stream one and 2 pipelines which transports gas under the baltic sea. they were not in operation, but were filled with tons of methane that started to bubble to the surface.

has moved from st. louis in senegal. it still is what some residents have described to me as a precarious. com. you still have the soldiers in position around the capital, suggesting that there are negotiations taking place somewhere at the presidential palace, at least according to a statement made by the government spokesperson knew and had been go, who says that talks are continuing to reach a settlement without trouble, they allude to some sort of crisis between members of the military and there's been growing divisions between the headquarters and what to do and the soldiers that are on the front line where there has been heavy losses on the foss, those army side just 3 days ago a convoy came under attack more than 11 soldiers died. and remember, there was what instigated a qu last january that, that brought a colonel to me,

but to power was the fact that the civilian government was seen by the bill military as not giving them the means to combat arm groups linked to isolate. and i'll call you to who have continues to gain ground. 40 percent of bertino faso is out of government control, 40 percent. so time is of the essence to try to find a solution for this because millions of people are being displaced without a life and more still to bring you on the program. hearken, ian has no after waking fe, florida. hasn't yet mine says the destruction is likely among the worst in the nation's history. palestinian family moons a child's desk. they say he was chased by israeli soldiers dying from ah, with after rather

a wet week in the southern alps, suddenly you ran metro and stormy. very recently. this cloud, which is still bringing the storms is drifting away. so we'll be improving weekend things and moving there. the breeze will be picking up the changes come down a little bit. but for example, in these small islands barracks, it'd be fine and sunny was temperatures just down a little bit of what they were recently. and that will last long, there will be, i think, some persistent rain around the, a drastic coast at least for a while. that'll pushy was as well. but the autumnal look is definitely with us now . yet again, a storm system that will give windy weather to iceland is born brought rain for the british isles and will end up with temperatures in the high teens. but a bit of a feeling. the breeze i think, and this light is blue, suggests overcast skies quite often and rain coming out and throughout a good part of northern europe. now the picture on sunday is much the same except we squashed the heat. now out of romania, bulgaria, greece and we start to do the same for turkey as well, with temperatures,

podium and anchor at $28.00 in athens, coming down a little bit. the sun returns after the rain has gone through germany and france, for example. the certainly a concentration from paris than towards the western side of austria. that looks wet . ah, the if the world has taught us anything, it's that we all need support. that includes as hail, won, and as failed to, to do their job. they need help from the ground. support doesn't come any stronger than the s l st teleport. designed to protect and maintain our satellites. from infrastructure to control, it never stops adding value as sales science space to deliver your vision. lou.

ah, welcome back main stories. now. russia's president is proclaimed the annexation of fort ukrainian regions. a dim approved enjoy thousands of people at moscow's right square for the public celebration. it follows referendums denounced as sham votes by the international community. russian missiles of a convoy of ukrainians trying to cross the front lines, bring back family from occupied territories. at least 30 people were killed. the attack happened in the city of zap morisha. meanwhile, ukraine has formerly submitted an application to join nato. our fears that keener foster could be on the cusp of another coo off to heavy gunfire in the capital lock a, do go. gunshots. have been heard at the main military camp in the city and near the

presidential palace oral. so following developments in afghanistan today, the death toll from a suicide attack on an education center in the capital cobble has now risen to 50. most of the victims are female students who was sitting a practice university entrance exam has been no claim of responsibility. but as all my consume reports, the predominant e she r area has suffered some of the worst attacks in the country in recent years. ah, the desperate families hoping the worst feelers are not confirmed after the news of an attack on a titian center. yes, she said to us, mac, yes sir. but as ambulances brought dozens to the hospital, the enormity of the attack was clear. a suicide bomber blew himself up inside the room. a students ruled a more exam and i was sitting inside my booth when the blast happened. when i heard

the sound of the explosion, i saw so many pieces of flesh in the air. people were panicking. i went to help them. i helped carry some dead bodies that the taliban did not allow us to take photos. well, little of them. we were around $600.00 students in the classroom, but most of the casualties are among girls. these are some of the victims. many from the minority has our community living in this area of western cobble. what, how many months ago i do a lot of god. we had a lot of hope by sending our children out to learn and be educated and have a bright future ahead of them. but instead that killed, we are asked to come to mosques or hospitals to recognize that dead bodies. this is really painful. and only people who have experience of this kind of loss of their family members can feel what i, on the other families are feeling that the group has faced persecution for decades by be slum at snape and but taliban. and since it took control of the country last

year, there's been an uptake on her sarah tax. it is some kind of for general and security incidents since the taliban of taken over, as they did not house for the capacity offer or counter terrorism. ah, ah, my counter insurgency there have been transitioning themselves from being military to a government power. so it may take time to take control fully off the security apparatus . the government has condemned the top, but it comes as education has become a flash binding of jonathan under taliban rule. it girls blocked from returning to secondary education michelson. anson seizure want to take you. i live now to new york, where the united nations security council is voting to condemn the russian

annexation of occupied areas of ukraine. to sue to sue, he saw applause, one against microphone, from 300 resolution, those against the drivers. men, please raise your hands. who subst abstentions will soon as you please raise your hand on live is will dog the results with the growth of the vote are as follows. reporters who really draft resolution and hulu, the world war 10 for work. he won against he and

got a for abstentions, reports review, review the draft resolution. the bus has not been adopted rowing issue, the negative vote for film and all of a permanent member of the council who's going magnolia. i now give the floor with 2 members of the council who wished to make a statement of after the vote, who going up and down the floor and to albania, my theme with the president. thank you mr. president. other doug, they are the ones care to counsel just a voting on a resolution to condemn russia's annexation of ukrainian territory and country. it went pretty much as expected with the majority of the council voting in favor of it. there was one abstention of course, that was russia, at, sorry, was russia voted against the resolution rusher, is a permanent member of un security council though for abstentions. but the important

thing is that it's not going to be passed because it was vetoed by russia. james is standing by listening to all of this, and james, this vote was sir. the result of his vote was as expected, it was as expected in that it's not going to pass with a russian veto. the russians declared their no vote as a permanent member. their vote no vote trumps anyone else's vote. this resolution condemning russia is not going to pass and that that was to be expected. the russian ambassador said that they'd been provoked to use their veto. he said that that's the only thing that could happen if you had a resolution that directly condemns russia. i think some of those on the security council who are in favor of this resolution and you're seeing the albanian deputy ambassador speaking right now. the u. s. and albania were the ones who came up with the resolution that drafted the resolution, but other countries like that you can,

france were strongly on board with this resolution. they'll be a little bit upset. i think that china, of course, abstained. we were expecting china to abstain, but there were 3 other members of the security council who stay now. i'm sitting in the studio and i only saw the camera angle that you saw. and we only saw the hand of china go up in the extensions. i'm trying from my colleagues in a moment to get the names of the other countries that abstained, which i think is interesting because i was told as recently as, as a few minutes ago, that before the meeting, that there were many countries that were telling other other members of the security council, they hadn't and instructions from their capitals and wouldn't get them till the very start of the meeting. will it's clear, but for members of the security council, china and 3 others have decided to abstain. this next goes to the general assembly . i think some of the supporters of ukraine, we worried that a similar thing might happen at the general assembly. they'll be more people abstaining, more people who are not positively on ukraine's side against russia. i think i just

heard james that the ab sanctions were along with china, india, gabon, and brazil. and so i suppose one is interesting. here is the, the west and pressure. a on india and china that are there in many ways, traditional allies of russia. in some ways they perhaps benefit from what is happening in the war and ukraine. the perhaps, if there is western pressure for them to get behind a resolution like this and to express some sort of opposition to the war that, that might influence how they, how they view votes and how and their view of what is happening in ukraine. yeah, i mean india certainly i think many thought india might abstain. india, of course, has, has links with russia military links with russia going back a long period of time as a military supply of supply coming from russia to india. but i think it will still

be disappointing, i think, to some of those that support ukraine and to ukraine that those, those, those 3 countries have joined china in the abstention bracket of this resolution might be worth another little bit of an anecdote to add to this as i was telling you, in the last couple of hours i was at a diplomatic reception, where many of these ambassadors with around the security council table were not only was there a long huddle between the chinese and the russian ambassador, looking rather serious, that went on for about 15 minutes, but at the other end of the room, there was also a huddle involving india, the indian ambassador, the brazil ambassador, and the deputy ambassador of russia read what you want into that. okay, thanks very much. and chance pays out diplomatic, added to that at the u. n. i want to talk to some other stories now and hearken. e n has made landfall in south carolina forecast as of predicting a storm surge and floods after the mega storm cause catastrophic damage in florida
