were certainly yesterday it was a pretty dramatic picture, especially from forgive there on a day where the people that expected to be able to kind of enjoy the fact they were now a lot further away from those russian troops and russian artillery strikes but yes, we saw the metro going down, we saw most the city plunged into darkness and lots of basic services falling away in right now as though we have heard that it has been possible to restore electricity to large areas. the bigger problem though is the thermal heating plots right now it's already kind of chilly. it's a cold autumn. but as we get into winter lots people are going to be without the kind of that heating supplies that they used to. and these, these plots have been talked by russia all through this war, and they're gonna take a long time to restore you caught redirect heating from other plants as the case electricity. so pretty difficult situation there, but overall, i think the overall kind of sentiment had given us relief that now those are to re text they'd be living with from kind of nearby russian or positions should now be over at least a lot more difficult. now ukrainian forces say they've liberated a huge swathe of territory in the north east over recent days,

almost reaching the russian border. i'm, we've seen those videos of soldiers arriving in towns that have been occupied for months. what are they finding when they arrive? well, 1st of all, i see finding a lot of locals who work the russians have left. we saw those images of huge queues of cars at the russian border. people who collaborated, who may be, took up positions in the new russian administration who taught russia had come to stay them fleeing in large numbers, seemingly to russia, a fearful of retribution, but also of a judicial and kind of pay back. ready for their actions, and they were getting spread reports of people, you know, finding evidence of torture and other mistreatment of people with linked to the ukranian state or ukrainian army veterans. it's all pretty difficult to report all right now because there is no systematic access. the journalist right now, and we're hoping next few days to be able to get there. because right now we just basing our coverage on the stuff we're hearing from locals on the ground social media from the ukrainian soldiers there. but definitely a sense that this was

a region where the locals definitely weren't expecting the ukrainians to come back in a hurry. all the talk in the last few months about had song about the south. and now suddenly, in a matter of days, ukraine's troops of it rolled back, the russian lines by dozens of kilometers. but anna had a quick word about a bay russian now occupied as appreciate nuclear plant. they'd countries at nuclear operators that external power has been restored, allowing them to shut it down. is that good news? it's bit of both. on the one hand, it means data can yes, fully shut down the last reactor, which means that if there's a direct hit that's less of a risk. but it also makes it more dependent, the part more dependent on the outside world and the stability of the region around to keep the cooling going for the plant as a whole, it's desperately in need of that power to come in to prevent things overheating. and if we see more of these russian strikes on the ukrainian electricity grid, the only thing left are the diesel generators. and there are lots of question marks of whether they'll be enough diesel being brought into in sure the safety. so it is

a very, very demonstration, this is i think, being seen as a rush rush kind of putting up the stakes and trying to make the outside world is concerned as possible about the possibility of, you know, a full kind of that pop up being cut off from the outside world and unable to insure it and safety. okay, thank you for that. nick, nick connelly and keith will take a look now to more storage, making news around the world of russian citizens have lost access to a visa agreement, allowing them easy travel to your from today, a russians will face new hurdles and costs. last week, the european council agreed to suspend a visa deal between russia and europe. shannon area but stopped short of a full travel back. lower price of ours is in southern pakistan are trying to split one of the country's main highways to re direct flood waters away from a town record. monsoon range of triggered floods across a 3rd of pakistan. a hundreds of thousands of people have been forced to flee their

homes now to sweden's election, where a right wing block have a razor fin lead over the left, leaning governing coalition is almost 90. 5 percent of votes have been counted at sweden social democratic prime minister magdalena anderson says the result is still too close to call. the leader of the conservative as the result is unlikely to be known until wednesday. if the conservative block, when's the anti immigration? sweden, democrats could become part of the government for the 1st time. well, d, w 's alexandra phenomena is in the swedish capital stock of welcome alexandra. it's been a nail biting night or swedes who looks likely to lead this next government. well that is of course the key question here. however, one that it's very difficult to answer right now with the re still too close to call. normally, you would say that the leader of the party that sir has emerged as the strongest

part in this election would have the right to talk to other parties to form a new government in this case that would be prime minister. under some. however, her social democrats, together with other center a left parties, they seem right now not to have the majority in the parliament. and dad would mean that the task of building a new government would fall on the right wing acquisition. and then we have to say that, sir, when we look at the rise of the sweden democrats, they are not likely as the 2nd largest party to nominate the par minister, but they could have a seat in the government. but all of that, and you know, show you how shows you how difficult it will be to form a new government and freedom. right. and switch. the country off of viewed from outside was a haven of tolerance, which seems at odds with an apparent surgeon support for the anti immigration

sweeney democrats. it does indeed, the rise of the far right sweden. democrats is a remarkable development in a country that was long known as a showcase example of a liberal society. but we have to say that the sweden, democrats who entered the parliament in 2010. they have been growing ever since. and this time, it seems that they were able to tap into the social mood in sweet sweden with many sweet saying that they are not ready any more to bear the cost for the countries generous refugee policy. they, they want the government to correct down on crime. the country has seen a rise in gang violence recently, sol, all those topics or pay played into the hands of the far right sweden democrats. and it is if, if the swedish result likely to have consequences for the rest of europe while

not direct consequences. i would say, because even the sweden democrats as are saying that they are not in favor of sweden leaving the european union. they also has about support for ukraine. however, we have to say that the fact that it's gonna be a tough task to build a new government here is not good news for you or because of course, europe now is facing the energy crisis. europe wants to show any united front when dealing with russia. so what europe need is a stable government in sweden. thank you for that. alexandra alexander, phenomenon. stockholm of queen elizabeth for 2nd coffin rely in edinburgh saint giles cathedral from today allowing mourners to pay their last respects on tuesday. it will be flown to london where the queen line state thousands line the roads on sunday to watch the light monex final journey
