no hopes remain in office. but his rival left is luis in austria to silver, is a slight favor in a very tight race and international condemnation. after russia suspends a deal in ukrainian grain exports. las vegas as the move is in retaliation, or a drone attack on this navy. ah, i'm here until it's good to have you with us. we begin with breaking news from india where at least 60 people died when a bridge collapsed in the western state of gujarat. more than 400 people were on the suspension bridge over the much river. at the time of the last rescue operations or underway after 3 national disaster response force teams rushed to the scene, prime minister to rent a movie who is currently in his home state of drew out on the visit, said he was deeply saddened by the tragedy. brazilians

are voting in a divisive presidential, one off between far right and come to jr. both narrow and has left this rival lease and asked you to lula to silva for were president lula and both noro have cast their votes already in an election that has polarized latin america's biggest nation opinion. portia, who is a slight favor going into the election, but also nora performed better than expected in the 1st round. and the race is seen as too close to call. brazil is one of the world's biggest democracies with more than 150000000 voters. our votes rather expected to be cast. what's here now with the 2 contenders, had to say to day outside of polling stations, never that before with the truth is that to day our people are deciding the kind of life they want for their future. that's why this is the most important day of my life. i am running for office today, and i am confident that the brazilian people are voting for our project. i am

confident democracy will win. this is a project where popular participation defines public policies. so it will end up being victorious. we expect victory for the good of brazil. we've only had good news in the last few days. if god wants we will be victorious this afternoon. actually, brazil will be victorious this afternoon. i feel feel good for this. let's bring him d. w. corresponded johan can. ramirez o joins us from the brazilian city of rio de janeiro. diginero. johan, it's decision to in brazil. so what's the atmosphere like the day i've been turned at the city since very early in the morning with some pulse stations out. what i have seen is what you see behind me. it's a bonus station behind me and you don't see long lines of people waiting to vote. that's what i have seen most around to this c t r. but this is not necessarily need

to abstention. let's remember deborah's indies to largest democracy up the continent with more than 150000000 people voting today. so that's why there are hundreds of thousands of false stations all around the country to avoid precisely long lines here. people come voting, charged in the schools. sunni versus bank coffee says post office is precisely to avoid. avoid along the lines that are both spacious, are supposed to close at 5 pm local time. so walker's through this, please, if you will. what exactly is at stake for brazil in this election? the continued to europe if i arrive project toefl for gary bozza narrow or that coming back of the traditional the left wing to the governmental for like the food the and this once again, the largest democracy, the continental. so this is a very important a potential when and for law, not desilva would mean exactly that coming back. let's remember what i was convicted. he wasn't free. so for a couple of years for

a corruption case. so now becoming president would be a spectacle that call me back, or he may beat the case with him. he's political parties, but a major victory also for the left and not just in brazil, but also in latin america, a potential victory for also. now that would be the consolidation, i'm the buyer rights in brazil, and this would have an impact to also in the region because this is a name economy of latin america. so what happens in brazil has an impact to the wreck of now brazil is of course a deeply, politically divided country. are we expecting any type of civil unrest after the results are announced? people are worried about it because says, i mean during the whole, the presidential res jay, about an hour the current president has implied that he wouldn't gone seed in the face of been heat and every potent for gas and that he's going to lose. so we wonder, what is he going to do it? he's going to remain in power. and me say cool, that's why for many people, democracy eats at stake today in brazil. but after the last presidential debate on

friday evening wasn't ira said that who, whoever, who gets the more votes in this that most votes in this election should become president who flying that he would accept that. so it's not clear at this question . so we have to wait and see about a to p. m 9 p. m local time. we should know if i not outcome of his 2nd rights are right. those need to be corresponded. johan ramirez, reporting for us. they are. thank you for bringing this up. to date. south korea's in a period of national mourning for the 153 people who died in a crowd surged during halloween celebrations and the capital soul. the crush happened in a popular night life area. investigation is now under wayne to what caused the tragedy. we should warn you though this following report contains distressing images. it was a night of youthful revelry. that turned into a real life horror story. when

a crush in the south korean capital sole left over 150 dead around 800000 people, a thought to have flocked to the narrow alley ways of it's. i won what happened next. in the streets remains of clear. butcher's, dozens of young people collapsed. strangers administered cpr to those in need. witnesses described scenes of chaos unfolding on the streets around them. toys re game you're around, denby am. what we saw was like a scene from a movie in front of the hotel over there. it exactly was like things that happened using a wall. they were doing cpr and people were rushing around and nothing was being contained on it was completely out of control. why it wasn't on the, on the theory paper or it, it will. and i turned around and i had told the crowd,

because come this way people are, does your 30 near oh that it was south korean president units lucky all visited the scene before announcing a period of national morning mirrors from noah angel as president who was responsible for people's lives and safety, how my heart is heavy and i struggled to cope with my grief. tomblin on the golden rule, designate the beard from today until the accident is brought under control, as appeared of national morning had all gone wrong and replaced top priority and administrative of, as share was in recovery and follow up measures was how boys were whose octo chair tradition over 350 missing person reports had been filed since saturday night. so while the country begins to come to terms with a national tragedy,

for the families of those and accounted for all they can do is wait for the news. nobody wants to hear we're turning back now to our top story that bridge collapse and india. and we're now joined by d. w. south asia bureau chief. i'm re to cima in delhi. so i'm rita. what exactly are you hearing from more of you were the bridge collapsed? i mean, it was a shocking. i beg your final shocking turn of events on a sunday evening that people had gone for us till august newly opened a suspension bridge. it was tom evening and suddenly the big starting warming. the exact circumstances are not clear as yet, but at least 60 people are record. he did. one of the ministers then has reported, you said 60 people are dead. most of them are women. some of them are women, actually 15 are reported to be women and children at some media reports and seeing the majority of those kids were children. we know anything about why exactly the

bridge could have collapses, that it was a new structure. it was renovated, aaron, the renovation took 7 months and it had just recently open an investigation has already been set up, but obviously it's much too early to say some eye witnesses say that a suspension cable bill, and that's what led to this disaster. but of course, it is doc, now risky operations underway, but this bridge was over the big river. so most people believed that those who were killed 60 reported kid, what drowned wendy turned into the river. and it was making some attempts to stop the flow of the river so they can find people may be submerged in under under shadow parts of the river. but it's still not clear what was this but desperate rescue operations on going on. and also it's important to room out and that this down of more be, is in the state of, would you not, that is prime minister that in the more the state, everything being done,

there will be a high priority versus upcoming in the sequence is still up the state is reaching the place any minute. now, we have to remember it's late sunday evening in india. and of course it's very difficult to find bodies at this stage. all rights and truly dramatic scenes there in more b, i was the w, south asia bureau chief, i'm reaching for reporting for us from delhi. thank you very much. western powers have criticized russia's decision to halt a deal allowing ukraine to export grain from ports in the black sea. the kremlin says it's suspended the agreement in retaliation for drone attack, against its fleet more of the coast of illegally annex korea. you foreign policy chief, joseph burrell called on russia to reserve its decision to help avoid a global food prices and u. s. secretary of state and lincoln urge moscow to stop weaponized food. the when broken grain deal has seen more than 9000000 tons of grain exported from ukraine during the war, and that helps to bring down global searching food supply prices. and for

some analysis, i'm joined by mike martin is a war studies senior fellow at kings college in london. so mike western powers accused moscow of again using grain deliveries to put pressure on the international community. do you agree with that assessment? good evening. i think what's happening here is, is russia is demonstrating cause and effect. you know, those ships were used as part of the grain. they need to check. you kind of go and deliveries and ships the weapons and zona cycle, but they're also used for bombarding ukrainian cities. so i guess what russia saying is, if you take out some of our ships, then we're going to put out the grain. dale, i'm not really sure how much pressure that means national community and how should we interpret this is a sign of strength or weakness for moscow. well, i think the pertinent point here is right at the beginning of the war. i'm turkey,

close the boss for straits to russian shipping to all shipping, in fact, warships from any nation. and that's of course, the entrance to the black sea. so there's a limited number of russian ships and in the black sea and based in crimea. so one way of interpreting war, russia saying is, we've only got a small number of ships. we need to do lots of jobs with them, you know, attacking ukrainian city, the tacky training military as well as carrying out this grain, dale. and if you disable a small number of ships, which is really the outcome of this attack a, it wasn't spectacular militarily successful on the inside than the russian saying we don't have enough ships to carry on with all the tasks that we have. so i think you can interpret it as, as a sign of russian weakness. so how should kids always respond if at all i'm not sure there is much that they can do originally. this deal was brokers with

turkey with the united nations and the quote between russia and ukraine. ultimately, if russia doesn't want to allow grand supplies to leave the crane then, then it can do so there's really little that the, the intentional community, the u. n. can do to appeal to russia to reinstate the deal. i guess really what you need to do is when the war that's the best way of getting those grain deliveries starting up again. for crusty was just saying that turkey also play a role in negotiating the steel. does this change the relationship between moscow and then kara i think turkey is playing a very, very interesting role in the conflicts present on has elections off in april. so he's very keen to demonstrate to his populace his voting populace at home that he's playing a big international mediation role. i don't think i think turkey will try to get

the grain deal back on track. i think no one will be keen to do that, to deliver something to his i think public, but fundamentally turkey is, is facing both ways in this conflict for its own benefit. and i don't really think it's going to change anything from this is going to be all right. that was worse to the senior problem like martin. thank you for your analysis. thank you. all right, you're up to date up. next we have world stories. the we can reports including a report and how latino voters in the u. s. could be king makers in november's mid term elections. remember, there's much more news on our website. that's d w dot com. i'm here until berlin. thank you very much for joining us. enjoying the view, come to take a look at this t. v highlights every week in your inbox, subscribe now i.
