criticism over how evacuations were carried out. details ahead and the latest on another massive storm. voters in brazil learned the results of the presidential election there and whether they will go back to the polls for another round. and cnn takes you back to the city recaptured by ukraine just a day after the kremlin declared it a part of russia. live from cnn center, this is cnn news room with rosemary church. >> thanks for joining us. authorities in florida have confirmed 76 deaths from hurricane ian as they continue to search for more survivors. over the weekend, they evacuated hundreds of people from lee county where more than

half of the state's deaths have occurred. the situation is so bad in arcadia, people can only move by sailing on boats instead of driving in cars. back in lee county, officials have been criticized for waiting too long to order evacuations. but some are pushing back claiming they did the best they could with the information they had. here is how the state's former governor responded. >> first off, every life is important. i mean, when i was governor, my goal was nobody die. we can rebuild everything. i don't want anybody to die. i think once we get through this, and we do an assessment, what did we learn? i had four hurricanes. as we go through this, we will find out. >> many of those who survive

the hurricane are facing a long road to recovery. cnn's leila santiago spoke with residents about their struggles in western florida. >> reporter: neighbors here in the city of naples say there is a bit of disbelief, shock when they see the damage inside their doors. the reality is really setting in. the reality of what it will be like in the weeks and months ahead. you have homes where there are boats coming into the backyard. debris. boats flipped over. cars that came in with that storm surge. and you even had one house where the dock came up and is now in another neighbor's driveway. so quite a bit of efforts will have to go into the cleanup of all this. i spoke to one woman who still had water in her oven, in her drawers, as we talked to her, here is what she told us.

>> it is very sad. a lot of history here. and with all of the photos from my husband and his family, it just tears me up i didn't get emotional. i didn't cry but i'm almost ready to cry now talking to you. but it is okay. we are alive and we are here. and that's the most important thing. >> reporter: and i also talked to the city manager here. and he mentioned two things. specifically in terms of where the immediate focus is. one is on where to find shelter from displaced people that have been impacted by hurricane ian. and then of course, power restoration. they are still assessing the damage when it comes to infrastructure to try to get a realistic idea as to when they believe they will get to 100% for power restoration. i have not spoken to one person here who does not say they expect this to be a long road

to recovery. leila santiago, cnn, naples, florida. southern mexico they are preparing for hurricane orlene to make landfall. the category 2 storm is expected to bring strong winds to the region. but the storm is already showing signs of weakening. the national hurricane center predicts storm surge will contribute to flooding as well as life threatening surf and rip current conditions. let's bring in our meteorologist for the latest on both of these storms. so, what do you think? >> a very good news here. it is weakening on approach the land. very different than what we saw with hurricane ian where it was strengthening. the winds, 160-kilometer miles per hour. across this region of mexico,

four island archipelago. an island prison colony that is now sparsely populated but the system moving over that region producing powerful winds. storm surge on the coast of that area. it went from a category 1 to a category 4 in the past 24 hours. very rapid intensification yet again. the timing a little bit better than what we saw with ian. but you will notice the government of mexico taking this very seriously. some of the port communities across this region have already closed operations as a result of this system approaching. but when you look a little higher into the atmosphere, there is quite a bit of wind shear that will weaken and break the system apart. where we think landfall will be made will be south in a very sparsely populated area. lagoon dotted landscape.

impacts will be localized to that. very quickly becomes a tropical storm. they are very elevated terrain. impacts are very localized. this area will see some impacts in the coming hours. that is really about it. a couple of disturbances developing but a quiet pattern across the large area of the united states which is excellent news for a lot of folks who have dealt with quite a bit in recent days. >> very true. many thanks. appreciate it. supporters of brazilian presidential candidate lula celebrated in redejanuary. though there is no winner yet in brasil's high stake's election.

election authorities say lula leads with just over 48% of the tally while current president jair bolsonado has 43%. neither candidate topped the 50% threshold needed for an outright victory. a run off vote is set for october 30th. sunday's results for a far better showing than predicted for president bolsonado. preelection patrols had suggested lula would win outright. both candidates expressed confidence at rallies after the runoff was announced. >> i want to tell you that the campaign starts tomorrow. i have never won an election in the first round. i have won all of them in the second round. all of them. here in the second round, what is important is the chance to think thoroughly on what you propose for society. to build a network of supporters before winning.

for you to show to the people what will happen and who will win. >> i understand it was a vote for change for the people but there are certain changes that could be worse. we tried to show this in the campaign. but that didn't reach the part of the population we will analyze it. we are moving forward where all is now equal and we will better demonstrate for the brazilian people. still to come, ukraine reclaims the key city of lyman from russia. a cnn crew is there to witness the devastation leleft behehind plplus, in iran, crarackdow on antigovernment demonstrations are mounting as police c clash with students at prominent university. we are back with that and more in just a moment. the audi e-tron family. progress that moves you.

by the west as a sham. that move even as moscow now claims is back in the hands of ukrainian forces. nick peyton walsh gives us a firsthanded look at the liberated city of lyman. >> reporter: it may not look like much, but there is where putin's defeat in donetsk began. lyman, what's left of it, now freed of russia. this is what it was all about. the central railway hub now in ukrainian hands and devastated by the fighting. this was such a seminal part of russia's annexation. the concern more moscow is the knockout effect this will have all the way to the russian border. on the town's edges we saw no sign of the hundreds of russian prisoners all dead that had been expected to follow

moscow's strategic defeat here. nor inside it either. perhaps they have already been taken away. instead, utter silence. only local bicycles on the streets. several residents told us the russians actually left in large numbers on friday. >> they left in the night and the day, people said. they sat on their apcs and their bags were falling off as they drove. they ran like this. >> reporter: it would be remarkable timing. that russia fled lyman in the very same hours that putin was signing papers declaring here russian territory. and holding a rally on red square. the signs of russia left are burned flags. they ran away without saying a word to anybody, he says.

it is bad. the shops didn't work. it truly feels as if there is nobody left. ghostly silence here apart from occasional shelling and small arms fire. it is so much of this town destroyed. so many locals leaving when the ukrainian push toward it began. now it is just this utter ghostliness in a place that is such a strategic defeat for russia. gunfire in the distance. they are nervous some russians may be left. outside what is left of the court, the constant change in violence is too much for some. her husband just arrested.

>> reporter: the ukrainian troops we did see had already stopped celebrating. there is little time. they are on the move again. another russian target further east in their sights. those left in lyman are gathering the ruins to burn for fuel with winter ahead. left in the wake of russia's collapse here, a town they took week to occupy, but only hours

to leave. cnn, lyman, ukraine. joining me now is malcolm davis. a military analyst at senior analyst of defense strategy and capability at the australian strategic policy institute. thank you so much for being with us. >> my pleasure. >> so how effective have these ukrainian advances been in the eastern south of the country? and what do they reveal, do you think, about the state of russia's military even as president putin tries to illegally annex those four regions of the country? >> i think ukraine has demonstrated utter professionalism and skill in its recent advances that have surprised everyone. i think ever since the war began, there have been demonstrating this. but the speed and the scope of these advances, i think has

caught everyone by surprise. most obviously, the russians. and i think that is what we are seeing is the beginning of the end in russia's war in ukraine. the russians will keep falling back, the ukrainians will keep advancings. obviously, the winter will slow things down quite a bit. but in the northern spring, i fully expect that the ukrainian victorys will continue and it really does make an absolute mockery of putin's claims these are a part of russia. clearly they are ukrainian territory and they always will be. that goes for crimea as well. >> and you mentioned the approach of winter. what's ukraine's likely military strategy in the east then? >> winter is brutal in ukraine. i think both sides will essentially stabilize both

sides and get through that winter but the ukrainians are counting on a continued supply of military hardware from the west to build up their capabilities so when the northern spring thaw hits next year, the ukrainians are ready to go with lightning fast offenses deep into the donbass and to continue the advance in the south. ultimately, to secure mariupol. that would essentially wrap up the end of the russian forces in ukraine and would then give the ukrainians the chance to decide do they want to try and take crimea as well. and i hope they do. >> president putin of course is getting increasingly frustrated. his partial mobilization of russian men has backfired and the. how likely is it that putin would resort to nuclear

weapons? >> i think everyone in the strategic policy community is becoming more and more concerned about this. i think we are no longer dismissing it as extremely unlikely. there is growing concern that more putin is backed into a corner the greatest risk he will reach for a tactic nuclear weapon. the question is what happens after that. how does nato then respond to a russian use of atactical nuclear weapon or several tactical nuclear weapons in ukraine and what is the risk of rapid acceleration? that's the key we going forward in the sense that everyone feels that the ukrainians really do have the momentum and have the upper hand but the risk is that either later this year or the northern spring, that putin may become so

desperate that he could reach for a nuclear weapon. and then, potentially, it's a whole new war. >> i mean, that is the fear, isn't it? he is as we mentioned very frustrated because he just can't win at each turn, ukraine has come out on top. so talk to us about the consequences on the ground if putin decides to use nuclear weapons and talk to us about the move in terms of what the west need to do. you see nato coming in to this. we are talking world war iii here? >> firstly what we need to do here in the west is strengthen deterrents against putin making that initial use of nuclear weapons. that is absolutely crucial. the biden administration has been engaged in back channel discussions with moscow to make it clear if he uses nuclear weapons, it would be absolutely catastrophic consequences for russia. but maybe we need to be a

little bit more visible. we need to put in place preparations just in case that message doesn't get across. you need to perhaps put in place assets that can counter any first use of nuclear weapons against ukraine. from putin's perspective, if the war in ukraine fails, if he suffers a defeat, then he is facing his own personal end. he is facing his demise. and i think that in that sense, he is becoming desperate. the mobilization, the annexations, the hitlerian speech he made in moscow are all signs of a man that is becoming truly desperate. and this is a man that has basically access to nuclear weapons. my hope is that the russian command staff and his advisers would prevent him from using such weapons. would refuse to carry out any

orders. but, you never can tell. so that is why i think nato does need to start preparing for the possibility to prepare to deter nuclear use or respond to it. >> a very delicate situation. malcolm davis, thank you so much for walking us through that. we appreciate it. >> thank you very much. well, ukraine's president says his country's military successes extend beyond the city of lyman with two settlements in the kherson region and a village now among a growing list of areas liberated by ukrainian forces. volodymyr zelenskyy is also blasting russia's move to annex those four regions in eastern and southern ukraine. >> recently, someone somewhere held pseudo referendums and when the ukrainian flag is returned, no one remembers the russian farce with some pieces

of paper and some annexations. except of course, law enforcement agencies of ukraine. because everyone who was involved in any elements of aggression against our state will be accountable for it. cnn is following these developments for us. claire, good to see you. moscow is moving forward with its legal annexation. what is expected to happen today? >> today, we get the first part of the ratification procedure in the russian parliament. the draft legislation was submitted by president putin to the state duma. they are set to discuss this today. and on tuesday it moves to the upper house. all of this is just theater. certainly after the ceremony and the speech in red square we saw on friday, no one is going the turn around and do what putin has already decided. so this is russia trying to

sort of lend an official front to its illegal annexation to distract from the fact it is essentially annexing territory in which it is actively retreating and all this as international condemnation of the annexation continues to mount. we have french president macron speaking to president zelenskyy on sunday saying they are condemning this calling for more sanctions. more sanctions have already come from the u.k. and the u.s. the eu is now considering an eighth package. the u.s. also just approved another 12 billion in aid for ukraine. so look, even though we saw president putin on friday calling for ukraine to return to the negotiating table though his red line of saying these territories are part of russia is ukraine's red line because they won't discuss peace while the annexations have been carried out. peace talks all of his actions point to the fact he has prolonged this war. the western resolve to support ukraine has not weakened so we

watch this theater unfold in moscow does not really change the reality of what's happened. >> yeah. claire sebastian joinining us live. thank you.u. a new round of protest ins iran. this timime at a prominent univiversity after a young woman's death in police custody. we will have a live report after the break.

the anti-government demonstrations continue in iran. riot police clash with students at a prominent university in teheran. you can see people shouting at

the police. the university's official newspaper reports security forces fired less lethal pellets of large groups of students. so let's bring in our reporter in istanbul. so, what is the latest on this crackdown overall and of course, these clashes between police and students at this university in teheran? >> reporter: well, rosemary, over the weekend, what we saw is thousands of students with the start of the new university term. the fall term. you saw thousands of unit students in teheran and across the country staging protests out on the streets. late sunday evening, we started getting reports of an unfolding situation at charif university. this is one of the most prestigious universities in the country. because of the communication restrictions put in place by the government. the internet blackout, it is very difficult for us to reach

people on the ground and to get information in realtime. but we started seeing some images coming out. some reports coming out from local media from the university's own newspaper. and we have been trying to piece it all together. and it appears that there was a violent crackdown by the security forces on these protests that were taking place on campus. now as you mentioned they are the university publication saying live rounds, less lethal, but still live rounds. pellets were shot at protesters. the university, the state media was reporting the situation was calm and students were taken back to their dormitories but there's a lot of reports about what have happened to these students. many may have been detained. what is clear, as we enter the third week of protests is these young protesters remain defiant and no sign of them backing

down and it has been women who have been at the forefront of these protests. this is the gut wrenching grief of a sister burying her brother. a forever good-bye too soon. killed at a protest. these anguished cries make it hard to understand what she says. but her pain needs no words. for some in iran, culting off hair is an age old mourning rite. but has also become a poignant form of protest for those rising up for their rights united in their battle for change. and in every corner of the world, women are sending messages of solidarity. in syria's kurdish region, a woman chops after her hair to the chant women, life, freedom.

one of the slogans of iran's protests. in istanbul, as fans cheered, turkish singer malek maso cut her hair on stage. to the women of iran, she said you are not alone. iranian women say broad have joined in the protest. this woman tweeted. only her dad could tame and braid her hair. she was one of the first to post her haircutting video online. >> it was more than a gesture for me. it was like saying good-bye to all those beautiful memories of him cutting my hair with love. because, this time, i kept cutting with anger. i needed to do something to take part in what my beautiful brave people are doing. >> reporter: what's happening

in iran is a women's uprising. not only are they on the streets leading protests, braving the bullets, the threat of jail or flogging, they are now challenging the islamic republic and its so-called morality enforcers walking the streets in broad daylight. no head scarfs, no fear. the barrier now broken. these two women sat for breakfast in a traditional tea house. a space typically for men. donya was arrested after the photo went viral. we don't know what happened to the other woman. but that in an intensifying crackdown hasn't stopped other iranian women. many are revolting to reclaim freedoms lost. their right to choose. these two sisters in teheran

with a rendition of the italian ballot against fascism and nazis. now women breaking the shackles across the regime. and rosemary, remarkable acts of defiance continued over the weekend. despite the crackdown. as we enter week three, we have seen these protests that started with calls for justice and accountability for the death of the young woman. they have morphed into these real daring calls for regime change. >> many thanks. in england, protesters in the streets and a revolt in the ranks. we will have the latest from the conservative party conference where the prime minister is under fire for her

truss-inomics economics plan.

day two of the u.k. conservative party conference kick off just hours from now with prime minister liz truss already backtracking on a key point of her plan. her finance minister announced moments ago the government was reversing its plan to scrap the highest rate of income tax. she admitted to the bbc sunday the plan had been rolled out, could have been rolled out better. >> i do want to say to people, i understand their worries about what has happened this week and i do standby the package we announced and the fact we announced it quickly because we had to act. i do accept we should have laid the ground better. i do accept that.

>> you accept you should have laid the ground better? >> i have learned from that. i have learned from that. and i will make sure that in future, we do a better job of laying the ground. >> truss also passed some of the blame for the public fury to her chancellor of the checker. that he made the decision despite dissent within the cabinet. he will speak to the cabinet today. fury has been on the streets of birmingham. protesters calling it prpro ric and anti-poor. if you are joining us in north america, i'll be back with more news in just a moment. the audi e-tron family. progress that moves you.

welcome back everyone. the supreme court begins its new term monday and one historic change is the addition of justice ketanji brown jackson. the first black woman to serve on the supreme court. the court's decision to

overturn roe v. wade in june will continue to have implications on abortion rights this term. the justices will also hear arguments on major cases on the voting rights act and affirmative action in college admissions and will consider cases on same sex marriage issues and environmental laws. the u.s. is entering the home stretch of the midterm election season. and the republicans' hopes of retaking congress are far from certain when voters go to the polls next month. hot button issues including abortion rights, gun violence, climate change, and threats to democracy are reshaping races nationwide. experts are now predicting only modest gains for republicans in the house. and leading pollsters say the democrats will likely maintain control of the senate. joining me now is cnn's senior political analyst ron

brownstein. always good to see you. >> hi rosemary. >> you wrote in your recent article in the atlantic that republicans expected sweeping senate gains but their chances have since dwindled. why has that happened do you think? >> well you know when the year started the republicans thought they had the chance to beat as many as six sits democratic senators. now, their true top tier chances where both sides believe they have a realistic opportunity have probably dwindled to just two. nevada and georgia. on the other side, democrats don't have many more opportunities either and that's a larger story about how stalemated and rigid the senate battlefield has become. what has happened to republicans is a combination of a shifting political environment and some ineffective choices by gop voters in primaries. arizona and new hampshire were supposed to be stages where they thought they could really press the democrats and instead, they had trump backed nominees who now look incapable

really of getting over the line. and then, a generally improving political climate for democrats taking colorado and washington off the page. having said that, because democrats don't have that many opportunities on the other side, we are still on a coin clip for control of the senate itself. >> yeah. and you said that didn't you in your article it remains possible that the senate will remain 50/50. what makes you so sure of that outcome sand what would the consequences be in materials of trying to get things done? >> first, if the senate did have 50/50 again in this election, that has never happened before. in the u.s. the larger point is that our politics is becoming much more rigid.

the number of states that either side can realistically compete for is shrinking and one of the results of that is that both parties have failed to achiever the majorities that used to be common. from 1960, to 1980, democrats had a majority in nine of the ten congresses. one party or the other had 55 or more senators in seven of the ten congresses. it has only happened three times since 2,000. because neither side can get very far ahead, they haven't been able to sustain a majority for very long. that has never happened in american history. if it is not 50/50, it is probably 51-49 for one side or the other and a reflection of how dug in we are in america and how durable and deep this red blue divide has become. >> what will likely happen in

the house do you think? >> well, i mean the house is tougher for democrats. you know. as i have mentioned before, republicans only need four or five seats to win the majority. there are only literally four elections since the civil war when the president's party has not lost that many seats in the first midterm of a new presidential term. earlier, when they expected sweeping republican gains, that looks less likely. over the course of this year, we went from the classic referendum on the party in power in which people were voting out of their dissatisfaction with the way drats are handling the economy. to one where it is more of a choice between the parties. whatguns, abortion, democracy

itself. people are down on biden's overall performance. but the magnitude of the opportunity for them clearly has reduced since earlier this year. >> ron, the midterms are usually a referendum of the party in power. that will not be the case this time. what is the main reason for that? >> the biggest single reason is that the supreme court ended the 50 year constitutional right to abortion. that was such a shock to the system, you know, in the past, i mentioned there's only four occasions when the president's party has done well in the house. they all had big shots. big shots from outside the system. the depression. the cuban missile crisis. 9/11. the abortion decision is of comparable magnitude and it may

not be enough to erase all of the advantages that the republicans had developed. particularlily around voter dissatisfaction bit has changed the parameters and allowed these democrats in the statewide races for senate or governor where there is more money and more focus to shift the question voters are asking from solely what have democrats done and am i okay with it to what would republicans do? that is what i think above all has dwindled the number of republican opportunities. >> thank you ron brownstein. >> thanks for having me. while clean energy remains a devicive political issue in states like texas, sprawling solar and wind farms are increasingly popping up. and the department of energy analysis is suggesting hundreds of thousands of energy jobs will go to red states like

texas. cnn's gabe cohen has more. >> reporter: the vast plains of west texas are not just oil and gas country anymore. >> there it is. >> reporter: on allen's cotton farm outside saint angelo, a sprawling solar farm. this lifelong republican and his neighbors are leasing 700 acres to an energy company making hundreds of thousands of dollars each year to allow these panels on their land. >> it is a rocking chair money. it comes every year. >> reporter: san angelo is one of many republican communities betting big on renewable energy. >> it is not just about drilling. >> reporter: michael heads the economic development for the san anglo chamber of commerce. recruiting energy companies to build at least nine solar wind farms during their small city of 100,000 people. >> they are providing a strong revenue source. >> did you get pushback? >> we didn't. they have some political pushback and certain communities that find them to

be perhaps not a really good fit. >> reporter: clean energy remains a divisive political issue in states like texas. >> oil and gas is king in texas. >> reporter: but right now, 18 of the top 20 u.s. districts for wind and solar generation are represented by republicans. these rule regions have the space and the elements needed for these projects. >> the bill as amended is passed. >> reporter: the nearly $370 billion climate bill, part of the inflation reduction act passed without a single republican vote. some calling it a gift to elite liberal states. but a white house analysis projects two-thirds of the investment from the bill including hundreds of thousands of jobs will go to red states. with projects planned in texas, oklahoma, georgia, tennessee, south carolina, and ohio just to name a few. >> it will do nothing but help stimulate these projects. >> reporter: one quarter of

texas electricity comes from renewables. in water valley, a group of ranchers are making more than $10,000 a year for each turbine they allow on their land. >> i feel like it has really benefited our community. >> reporter: down the road, the school district is using tax money from the project to build a new technical education lab, athletic facility and a large cafeteria to replace this current one. >> how much will this cost? >> we are looking at $17 million. >> how much of that is coming from renewable? >> 80 to 85%. >> reporter: more than half of the superintendent's students come from low income families. >> it gives them an opportunity that otherwise they wouldn't have. and we couldn't provide it. >> reporter: what is often framed as a red versus blue issue is becoming much blurrier. >> there are people who support renewable energy because it is

clean and there are people who support it because it is a way to make money. and they are not mutually exclusive. >> reporter: some republicans like allen goalle are all in. >> long after i'm gone, it will take care of all my children and possibly grandchildren. >> reporter: he bought a plug in hybrid and is on the list for an electric pickup. >> it's the future. there is no question that clean is the future. >> do you see renewables as a red or blue issue? >> i guess i do, but i don't think it should be. >> reporter: gabe cohen, cnn, san angelo texas. well, it looks like a real live game of jenga. one of spain's biggest human tower competitions took place sunday. it's a catalan tradition that takes place every two years in which teams come feet to build the highest and most complicated tower. children wearing helmets usually scramble up to the top tier. the highest towers this year were 10 levels tall and the winning team took home the
