president zelensky says the ukrainian flag is flying, once again, in the strategically important town of lyman in donetsk, a day after vladimir putin declared the eastern ukrainian region would be russian "for ever". mr zelensky said fighting was still going on, although the kremlin insists all of its troops have pulled out. kyiv says many russian soldiers were killed or taken prisoner. this report is from our ukraine correspondent james waterhouse. ukraine's counteroffensives have slowed, but for ukrainians, progress is still progress. traces of occupation are being removed, and quickly. lyman was a logistics hub for russia's invasion. despite continued fighting, it is set to become a platform for ukraine to keep pushing east. cheering

it's territory that russia officially celebrated as its own only yesterday. despite this recent show of patriotism, it is another embarrassing retreat for vladimir putin. as ever, his generals are trying to put a positive spin on russia's latest setback. translation: in connection with the threat of encirclement, - the allied troops were withdrawn from the settlement of lyman to more advantageous lines. to add to the kremlin�*s headache, ramzan kadyrov, one of putin's closest allies, called russia's military "shameful," and suggested it use what he called low yield nuclear weapons. that is essentially a repetition of russia's threat of an escalation in this war. momentum is very much with ukraine, which continues to undermine russian rhetoric by taking back lost territory. it has given kyiv the confidence to repeat its terms for any peace talks. translation: ukraine will get back what belongs to her, bothj

in the east and in the south. what they try to annex now and crimea which they annexed in 2014. our flag will be everywhere. complete liberation is a long way off. a lot more people on both sides will lose their lives. however, ukraine will feel that victories like these will pave the way. james waterhouse, bbc news. we can now speak to mark montgomery who's a former us navy rear admiral. thank you forjoining us, what is the situation on losing lyman, is it a setback for russia?— lyman, is it a setback for russia? ., ~ , ., ., ., russia? thank you for having me and es, russia? thank you for having me and yes. losing _ russia? thank you for having me and yes, losing lyman _ russia? thank you for having me and yes, losing lyman is - russia? thank you for having me and yes, losing lyman is a - and yes, losing lyman is a major setback, for the exact reason your reporter noted, it is a strategic railhead for russia. one of the problems

is a game changer. it is a game changer for both bulgaria and europe's energy security. and it means freedom. it means freedom from dependency on russian gas. adam easton, the bbc�*s warsaw correspondent, explains how the new pipelines came about. poland is one of the oldest buyers of russian gas dating back to the late 1940s. but over the years, russia's near—monopoly supply status allowed it to overcharge poland for its gas. in fact, it used to charge poland more than it charged germany because of the fact that poland couldn't get it from anywhere else. and then again, in 2014, russia's annexation of crimea, those two factors basically changed minds in warsaw and they decided that we've got to approve projects which will allow us to buy gas elsewhere. and that has now happened today with the opening, the first gas flow of this

pipeline from norway, which is significant because that can almost, just by itself, replace all the supplies from russia that were cut off in april. it will also be able to supply lithuania and slovakia because poland has gas pipeline interconnections with those countries. so it's a new route into europe, central and eastern europe for norwegian gas. and as you also mentioned, there's another new route of non—russian gas. this is this time gas from azerbaijan, which will come through this pipeline between greece and bulgaria, which has started operating today. that's significant as well because russia cut off its supplies to bulgaria also in april for the same reason that both poland and bulgaria refused to pay for that gas in roubles. a huge clean—up operation is under way in florida in the wake of hurricane ian. dozens of people are feared to have lost their lives,

while many thousands of homes and businesses have been destroyed. before—and—after aerial pictures have revealed the scale of the devastation in coastal areas of south west florida. causeways linking many islands to the main land have been washed away, cutting off entire communities. azadeh moshiri reports. storm ian's strong winds and heavy rain have left parts of the carolinas under water. this is charleston, its historic buildings flooded and myrtle beach, overwhelmed by what officials dread it most, storm surges. but in florida, the areas that were hit the hardest are still trying to recover from the storm. i went back to see cindy, who lives in a manufactured housing community full of rvs and wooden homes. mother nature and god was helping me out that night. look at it. i get the chill is now just thinking about it. i keep getting my body going through these tremors, because i still feel like i'm rocking and rolling in that.

like a roller—coaster, in my bathtub. i then met herbert, whose roof was blown off when he rode out the storm as he was sitting on his couch. this is what he filmed after the hurricane made landfall. that was the window over there? yes, there was a window here, and a stick came through and broke about this much. i came here about a day after the storm hit, there was a lot more water on the streets around here, but the clean—up crews have drained that water, but people here still clearly need help. they have been told that a government agency will come and potentially offered them some help, but they have also been told that it could tell them that this entire area is uninhabitable. search and rescue missions

continue, with flooding protest in iran following the death of a woman in police custody show no signs of abating. the two frontrunners in brazil's highly polarised presidential election have been holding their final rallies ahead of sunday's vote. all major polls have put former leftist president, luiz inacio lula de silva, ahead of the right—wing incumbant, jair bolsonaro, but anxiety over a contested outcome remains. laura trevelyan reports from rio dejaneiro. there's great uncertainty here in brazil heading into the first round of the presidential election. and here's why — the incumbent president, jair bolsonaro,

who is behind in the polls to his opponent, former president lula de silva, is actually casting doubt on the integrity of brazil's voting system. now, brazil has electronic voting machines, the result comes through nationally within two hours of polls closing. but president bolsonaro and his party have suggested, without any evidence, that somehow government officials could alter the results. and so this is all leading to speculation that perhaps if he doesn't accept the result, what will that mean here in brazil? memories are still fresh of the fact that brazil was a military dictatorship until the late 1980s. is it possible that president bolsonaro could somehow call on the military to make sure that he stays in power? now, military officials are so worried about the public perception that they would do this, that they have briefed brazilian newspapers

that they have no intention the steal" that led to the january 6th assault on the us capitol. so a lot of uncertainty here. but if one candidate were to get more than 50% of the vote in the first round of the election on sunday, that would mean that there wouldn't be a runoff on october the 30th. so many, many questions here in brazil and some anxiety and uncertainty heading into sunday's election. here in the uk, more than 50,000 rail workers have been taking part in strike action, causing the biggest disruption in decades. only around 11% of the usual services ran. it's the first time four rail unions have taken action on the same day in their long—running disputes over pay, jobs and conditions. our transport correspondent katy austin reports. shutters down, empty platforms.

"i'm telling you to take care of your country. "don't leave." this is the angry new conversation on the streets of tunisia. food is more expensive than ever before. each month, inflation

hits a new record high. translation: there's no oil or sugar, sometimes l there's no bread. how can people live? what can people do? more than a decade ago, a tunisian fruit and vegetable seller set himself on fire. mohamed bouazizi's death caused widespread protests againstthe high cost of living. the arab spring uprisings were supposed to spark change. for walid, they did — but not in the way he'd hoped. me, myself, i remember them every day... one of his best friends was killed, and while demonstrating walid was shot — he lost his right leg. translation: i sacrificed my leg for the sake of improving l the situation in my country. unfortunately, jobs and national dignity haven't been achieved

over the past 12 years. for a time, there was change. but injuly, tunisians voted for a new constitution, which concentrated power in the hands of the president, kais saied. it undid many of the democratic gains made since the arab spring. the rising cost of living is directly affecting the political system here. 11 years after protests that removed a dictator, tunisia is back in the grip of one—man rule. but so many people i speak to here tell me that even though their hard—fought freedoms are being lost, they see a forceful leader as the only way to get the economy back on its feet. living standards in tunisia are now worse than when the arab spring began — the number of families in need has tripled since 2010. hannan�*s husband isn't at home — he's meeting the people smugglers who've offered him a seat on a dangerous boatjourney to italy. the family's life is desperate.

they can't afford fruit for the children any more, or meat orfish. translation: if you go outj to the street and ask people to choose between dignity and bread, they will choose bread, because they don't care about dignity any more because people have got hungry. imagine he goes on the trip and dies on the sea, we will be lost. if he dies, we will be automatically homeless. this country has known some of history's most famous battles. now its people are facing a new fight — simply to survive. anna foster, bbc news, tunis. until the early 90s, india's only muslim—majority region, kashmir, had a dozen thriving cinemas. but an armed rebellion against indian rule that started in the late 8'os forced theatres to close

across the region. well, this weekend, cinemas have re—opened to the public in kashmir�*s main city srinagar for the first time in over two decades. let's speak to vijay dhar, chairman of srinagar cinema project and owner of srinagar inox cinema. welcome to bbc news, how did the opening go? good. we are waiting for more people to get in. l good. we are waiting for more peeple to get im— people to get in. i hear you didn't have _ people to get in. i hear you didn't have that _ people to get in. i hear you didn't have that many - people to get in. i hear you i didn't have that many people turning up? it didn't have that many people turning up?— didn't have that many people turning up? it takes time. for 30 years. _ turning up? it takes time. for 30 years. peeple _ turning up? it takes time. for 30 years, people have - turning up? it takes time. for 30 years, people have not. turning up? it takes time. for. 30 years, people have not known the cinema here. they don't know. i think it will take another ten to 15 days before people turn to the cinema. itruilmt people turn to the cinema. what was it like _ people turn to the cinema. what was it like before _ people turn to the cinema. what was it like before the _ people turn to the cinema. what was it like before the 1990s - was it like before the 1990s going to the cinema? kashmir's history with _ going to the cinema? kashmir's history with the _ going to the cinema? kashmir's history with the cinema - going to the cinema? kashmir's history with the cinema is -

the police then released tear gas after they thought that the situation put everyone in danger. the number of fatalities is expected to rise. we will bring you more details as they come into us and bbc news. thank you for watching. hello. a slightly different focus to the weather on sunday, where a saturday was a day of sunshine and showers for sunday. many will be dry, but not all. i'm sure your eyes are drawn to this frontal system sliding its way eastwards across the south of england and south wales. and through sunday morning that will be bringing some heavy rain to south west england, some rumbles of thunder to that rain also extending across into south east england, potentially a little

bit into south wales and the south midlands. and we could see some patchy rain for a time for the london marathon, particularly through as the day wears on, that rain will tend to pull away southwards and maybe some late spells of sunshine for the late finishers. but as that rain pulls away actually for much of the uk sunday as a fine and dry day with spells of sunshine, still some showers to watch out for, particularly for western scotland and the northern isles maybe later in the day for the north west of northern ireland where we've got the sunshine, temperatures in the mid to high teens up to 17 or 18 celsius at their highest. the winds not as strong as they have been, but still quite noticeable for the western and the northern isles. could also see some stronger gusts for a time for southern coastal counties associated with that band of rain, which continues to pull away southwards through sunday evening. most of the showers will fade and actually for much of the uk dry and clear, but with some cloud pushing back into northern ireland ahead of some rain on monday. but under clear skies could be quite a chilly night for england and wales with temperatures down to four or five celsius. we start the new week with an area of high pressure in charge for much of england and wales. but this frontal system bringing outbreaks of rain

and some stronger winds into northern ireland and scotland. so northern ireland seeing the rain first through monday, then pushing its way eastwards, getting into scotland around midday and then into the afternoon. but for much of england and wales it stays dry with some good spells of sunshine, although northern england likely to see more cloud. in the sunshine across england and wales, temperatures getting up to 18 or 19 celsius. so we've got the rain across scotland more like 13 or 14 celsius. and we still got that area of rain across scotland and northern ireland on tuesday. high pressure drifting away south where some of that rain likely to move into wales and northern england on tuesday. by and large, most of the rain in the week ahead will be for scotland, northern ireland, northern england and wales. drier conditions with some sunshine further south and east. that's all for me.

this is bbc news, the headlines... 127 people have been killed after a stampede at a football match in east java. police had tear gas to try and control the crowd. ukrainian forces have retaken a key town just one day after president putin declared it was now part of russia. lyman was a strategic target, used by russia as a logistics hub. russia's ministry of defence confirms its forces have withdrawn. a huge clean—up operation is under way in florida after hurricane ian. dozens of people are feared
