let's have a look at this. but the contest with his rival, the current president jair bolsonaro, is tighter than had been expected. all day, brazilians have been casting their votes across the country, including communities in the remotest parts of the amazon rainforest. our south america correspondent, katy watson, let mejust give let me just give you the figure, with 20% of the votes counted, 51.5% in favour ofjair bolsonaro ——jair counted, 51.5% in favour ofjair bolsonaro —— jair bolsonaro, with lula at 48.5%. the margin between the two was significantly wider than that. our south america correspondent, katy watson, is in sao paulo and joins me now. so, the votes are being counted, they've been counted quickly. should we be surprised at the moment? the?

we be surprised at the moment? they are bein: we be surprised at the moment? tie: are being counted quickly we be surprised at the moment? tie1: are being counted quickly and we be surprised at the moment? ti3:1 are being counted quickly and we're now at 30% between what you said. it's very, very narrow. 51% with jair bolsonaro, 49% with lula. people were expecting that jair bolsonaro would take an early lead. he's much stronger in areas in urban areas in the south, and where infrastructure is better, so the quicker counts versus lula, who is very popular in the northeast where infrastructure is harder and slower. nevertheless, this has been a nailbiter to the very end. it has been a much tighter race this second round. the first round, there was talk that lula might win. that didn't happen. there was a lot of underestimation of the support for jair bolsonaro. i think lots of brazilians went in thinking they weren't so sure about what the polls would say. theyjust want

weren't so sure about what the polls would say. they just want to weren't so sure about what the polls would say. theyjust want to go and vote, and it's a very divided country and it's a country that's really waiting and watching for the next hour or two. i5 really waiting and watching for the next hour or two.— next hour or two. is that roughly what ou next hour or two. is that roughly what you would say _ next hour or two. is that roughly what you would say would - next hour or two. is that roughly what you would say would be - next hour or two. is that roughly | what you would say would be the time frame, a couple of hours and we will have a pretty certain indication? that's right, we expect the results within the next few hours. it's been a little bit quicker than the first round. we're still at a third. behind me is a main avenue for sao paulo. already, there are mac would we're lula's supporter. bolsonaro �*s supporters say they will come out onto the street if he wins to celebrate. i onto the street if he wins to celebrate-— onto the street if he wins to celebrate. . , ., , celebrate. i imagine both will be hoinu celebrate. i imagine both will be heping and _ celebrate. i imagine both will be heping and praying _ celebrate. i imagine both will be hoping and praying at _ celebrate. i imagine both will be hoping and praying at them. - celebrate. i imagine both will be hoping and praying at them. i i hoping and praying at them. i suppose one of the truths of this

election is we have a very divided country. perhaps more polarised in the characters than ever before, and whoever were to win, it will be a monumental challenge to persuade the other half of the country that he is for all brazilians stuck although absolutely, and i think even more so if lula wins. he came to power 20 years if lula wins. he came to power 20 ea * ., ., ., ., years ago. he got involved in corruntion — years ago. he got involved in corruption scandals. - years ago. he got involved in corruption scandals. he's - years ago. he got involved in corruption scandals. he's a i years ago. he got involved in i corruption scandals. he's a very complex character, loved and hated, but the challenge he will have is in congress, there's a lot of support for right—wing parties. he's going to have a real battle to work with that. i think that's a big concern. i spoke to one person today who said

she voted a blank mode. she was a protester and didn't want either than them. that is common here. a lot of feel... people are being forced to find outside and very different sides, leftist and far—right. it's divided families and i think that's going to be the hardest thing for whoever wins, to bring that unity back together. it really is a big moment. thank you very much indeed. no doubt more from sao paulo. 30% of the voting in now. bolsonaro at 51.1%, lula at 48.9%. 30% of votes counted. more on that later. officials in india say at least 81 people have died after a suspension bridge collapsed in western india. at least 150 people were thought to be on the bridge in morbi in gujarat state at the time, but it's feared that

number could have been far higher. the bridge had onlyjust re—opened to the public following extensive renovations. in a tweet, the prime minister of india, narendra modi said... he pledged to give all possible help to those affected. our south asia editor, anbarasan ethirajan, gave us the latest a short while ago. it is a very tragic and unfortunate incident in the state of gujarat because hundreds of people were out on a holiday — today's a sunday and also a hindu religious festival, the post—diwali period, people still enjoying their holidays and the bridge, a pedestrian bridge, collapsed, trapping 100 people down the river. the authorities have been giving different figures on how many were on the bridge, ranging from 150 up to 500, but what we know is that dozens of people have died and the number of people killed in this accident could increase further.

the government has sent an emergency team as we speak. it's already night in india, and they are desperately trying to rescue more people. and one of the eyewitnesses were saying that most of those who died in this incident were women, the pictures themselves are dreadful enough. tao is more about this bridge. tell us more about this bridge. if it only reopened five days ago, i understand it was being renovated. it was built during the colonial period, about 100 years ago, and it was a popular destination for people living in this city, because people walk over the river, a panoramic view the river having a panoramic view of the river and city. it was a well—known destination. people are having doubts about its security a few years because it was more than 100 years old, because of its age, bnd there were extensive renovations carried out.

many of the indian channels were talking about how they allowed people back on the bridge without having any safety on it. without having any safety audit. of course, crowd management is always an issue in india because of the number of people coming in. its not the first time a bridge has collapsed. it's not the first time a bridge has collapsed. again, this incident could happen in any country as well, but a number of bridges have collapsed in india over the years and questions might be asked, if it is a new bridge, a bridge renovated extensively in the last few months, why people are allowed to go without a safety audit, if it is true, and why there was no security arrangements to control the number of people who can go on this bridge and the fact and the fact that the minister shows that there is no coordination about how many people there are on the bridge, how many people died and what kind of rescue workers carried out. i'm afraid i want to take you to another tragedy. a period of national mourning has been declared in south korea after more than 150 people were crushed to death while out

for halloween festivities in the capital seoul. most of the victims were teenagers and young adults who had gone to the itaewon district — known for its and were caught up in the disaster in a narrow alleyway that runs down the side of the hotel. the bbc�*sjean mackenzie has the latest from seoul. as the bodies are counted and the victims identified, devastating accounts of seoul's halloween night of horror are emerging. thousands packed onto the streets to party... people were crushed to death. most people died here. nuhyil ahammed was in the alley. he managed to climb onto a platform to safety, where he watched the horror play out.

it was, like, quite a few times, then i realised something's going to happen. there's no way you can breathe. so everyone lifting up, like... he gasps for air. ..and that's what they're doing, like, taking their last breath and things, so kind of suffocating. others describe how people fell to the floor like dominoes. i didn't sleep till now. i couldn't sleep because i see people dying in front of me. one guy, he know that his friend has died, but he was still giving cpr for 30 minutes. and his friend was trying to stop him, but he was still doing it. this nearby community centre is saturated with grief. families and friends come to register the missing. some get the terrible

news that their loved ones are among the dead. waves were coming in from both sides, and i turned around and i told the crowd, "you can't come this way. "people are dying." for others, there's no information. this is almost as hard to hear. this woman's son went to work at a club in itaewon last night. i went home. i i didn't see him. he didn't come home. he's the only son, i the only one i have. visiting the scene, the president, too, said he was struggling to process his grief. "something that should never have happened, happened," he says, an acknowledgement that things went horribly wrong. this footage from last year shows police controlling the crowds at the same spot. this year, multiple witnesses say this didn't happen.

the questions for authorities are, how was this crowd allowed to get so out of control, and what could have been done to stop this terrible tragedy? but for now, this country is mourning the death of so many of its young. jean mckenzie, bbc news, seoul. ukraine says over 200 ships are stuck in port, unable to export grain through the black sea, after russia suspended its participation in the scheme that provided security for them. the un secretary—general, antonio guterres, is involved in intense negotiations to try to rescue the deal amid a food crisis in parts of asia, africa and the middle east. our correspondent james waterhouse sent us this update. look, there are urgent talks we understand that are going to stretch into tomorrow. you've heard what the un makes of this pause, describing it as deeply concerning. turkey, who also brokered this deal, have also echoed those calls for the grain agreement to resume.

and interestingly, an official was quoted as saying that there were grounds for optimism, but it's hard to see where that is because russia has been accused of using the grain dealers' leverage as its military frustrations continue and they don't get much more frustrating than this extraordinary drone strike we saw yesterday on its black sea fleet, an attack which ukraine has denied... well, hasn't confirmed that it was behind, but there are very few think it was any other country. the motives for this attack are clear. it is a fleet which russia has used to launch missile strikes across the whole of the country but also, if it was ukraine, it shows that it's willing to take the risk of the grain deal falling apart for the sake of its own population. ijust want i just want to give you ijust want to give you an update because reuters are reporting that the un, turkey and ukraine have agreed on a movement for 1h vessels that are in turkish waters on the

sist that are in turkish waters on the 31st of octoberjoint statement in istanbul, where russian and ukrainian and turkish and un personnel are working, saying the three delegation had agreed from inspections to be provided to a0 outbound vessels. that's the latest on the grain supplies command ukraine. stay with us on bbc news. an immigration centre in southern england has been firebombed, and the suspect is confirmed to have died after the attack. ruler of the world's large democracy, and only yesterday she spoke and dying in the service of country and said she would be

showers with it, too — not so many for the first part of the night, most of the showers clearing away, then we start to see a few returning into southern and western areas during the early hours. further east, it should tend to stay drier, and again, another largely mild night for most — 9—12 or 13 degrees. so, into monday, then, pressure chart shows this next feature starting to push into western areas through the day, another area of low pressure developing to the south of us. that's going to arrive during halloween evening across england and wales. but not a bad day, i think, for the last day of october for much of the country — some good spells of sunshine bar the odd shower, but it really will be quite wet, western scotland, northern ireland particularly, where we could see some localised flooding towards the end of the day in places. a few showers just getting into the south coast there. up to 18 or 19 degrees, very mild for the time of year, mid—teens further north. that shower rain starts to push into much of england and wales during halloween evening, then overnight, it spreads across much of the country. some of that rain could actually be quite heavy at times, winds picking up, too, so quite an unsettled night to come. as you can see here, those winds picking up to around a0,

maybe 50 mph in exposure around the channel in the southwest coastline. temperatures double figures again across the south, maybe down to around 8 or 9 for scotland and northern ireland. monday's area of low pressure clears away northeastwards, but then we see this next feature run into southern areas. that could bring a swathe of wet, very windy weather across southern britain. for wednesday, it's a bump of higher pressure, thursday, another area of lower pressure moving in, so it really is a roller coaster ride of unsettled weather for this upcoming week. temperatures falling to what they have been of late. there will be some sunshine around as well.

this is bbc world news. the headlines. the brazilian president, jair bolsonaro, has established a slender lead over his left of centre rival, luiz inacio lula da silva, with almost half the votes counted in the presidential run—off. but lula's workers party tends to fare better in regions that are slower to report results. at least 81 people have died after a bridge collapsed in india's western state of gujarat. local reports say as many as 150 people were on the structure at the time. national mourning in south korea, after 15a people are crushed to death at a halloween event in the capital seoul.
