8:03 pm
because the bridge had been newly reopened. after 7 months of renovation that an investigation has been set up. but it's and say, what exactly caused the collapse of the bridge? maybe too many people, no crowd regulation, but some eye witnesses see the think a cable broke on the bridge. now, what is important is, as you mentioned, prime minister that in the ability is in the state of good. he is from the state of georgia. he school or college and mobilization of rescue operations, but rescue operations. we received nothing but dre to force in at daybreak, when people are able to search and look with people who might be still alive, but you know a but. ready still, that have not been able to be rescued so far. all right, that was the w south asia bureau chief, i'm re, to cima, reporting for us in delhi. thank you very much. brazilians are voting into vice presidential run off between for right incumbent job was narrow, and his left,
8:04 pm
his rival looseness, eula to silver opinion. partial luly is the slight fever going into the election, but boston are perform better than expected. in the 1st round, the races seen as to close to call new law is hoping to return to the presidential palace. the charismatic politician who is credited with lifting millions of brazilians out of poverty while he was president, is now looking to make a political comeback. though what would that be to day our people are deciding which live model they want for their future. that's why this is the most important day of my life. i am confident that brazilians will vote for our project. democracy work that the project of the people. this is, laura were here. ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ha. that, well this is the same lula. he would not be in charge of the same brazil,
8:05 pm
which is seen economic crisis and more political polarization since he was in power . the vote is also a test at the enduring strength of right wing populism let by president bush and arrow who is fighting for a 2nd term. oh, we've only had good news in the last few days. god willing we will win to day or even better. brazil will win today. both candidates have presented few proposals for the country's future. instead, they have attacked each other and launched online. smear campaigns. flashes among their supporters have left many voters feeling fearful of what is yet to come. earlier i spoke to d. w corresponds you on your ramirez, excuse me, there and read is narrow and asked him what he was witnessing in the street on
8:06 pm
election day for 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 it. say the station behind me and you don't see long lines of people waiting to vote. that's what i have seen. most around this city, but this is not necessarily linked to abstention. let's remember, deborah, is the 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 holding charged in the schools sunni versus the bank off. he says post office is precisely global to avoid along the lines of 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 up it far right project or for jo barza narrow or that coming back
8:07 pm
off the traditional the left wing to the governmental for a lot soon. but on this once again in the largest democracy, the continental us. so this is a very important, a potential of winning for law, not desilva would mean exactly that coming back and it was not convicted. he wasn't free. so for a couple of years for a corruption the case. so now becoming president would be a spectacular company back where he may be because of him. he's a political party, but a major victory also for the left and not just in brazil, but also in latin america, a potential victory for both. so now that would be the consolidation. i'm the buyer rights in brazil, and this would have an impact also in the region because it made the economy of latin america. so what happens in brazil has an impact in the wreck of the continent. now brazil is of course a deeply, politically de, i'd is country. are we expecting any type of civil unrest after the results are announced? people are worried about it because says,
8:08 pm
i mean during the whole, the presidential res jay, about an hour the current president has implied that he wouldn't concede in the face of a defeat. and every potent forecast that he's going to lose. so we wonder, what is he going to do? he looses he's going to remain in power. and me say, cool, that's why for many people, democracy is 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 vote in invest the most votes in this election should become president who client that he would accept. but it's not clear this question. so we have to wait and see around 8 to pm, 9 p. m local time, we should know the final outcome of his 2nd rights are. those need to be corresponded. johan ramirez, reporting for us there. thank you for bringing us up to date. south korea's in a period of national mourning for the 153 people who died in the crowd surged during hollowing celebrations in the capital soul. the crush happened in

8:11 pm
criticized russia's decision to hold the deal, allowing ukraine to export grain from ports in the black sea. to kremlin says it's spending the agreement in retaliation for a drone attack against fleet. more off the coast of illegally and ex camille, your foreign policy chief joseph broke hold on russia to reserve his decision to reverse rather its decision to help avoid a global from crisis. and us secretary of state anthony lincoln urge must go to stop weapon ising food un broker grain deal has seen more than 9000000 tons of bring exported from ukraine during the war so far and had helped to bring down surgeon global food prices. no. earlier i spoke to mike martin, he's a war studies senior fellow at kings college. i asked him if he agrees with the assessment made by western powers that moscow is using grain deliveries to put pressure on the international community. good evening, i think was happening here is, is russia is demonstrating cause and effect, you know, those ships were used as part of the glendale in they need to check ukrainian going
8:12 pm
deliveries and ships for 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, that puts on me in special community though. and how should we interpret this move? is it a sign of strength or weakness from moscow? well, i think the pertinent point here is right at the beginning of the war and turkey, close the boss for straight 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 basing 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,
8:13 pm
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 ukrainian side 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 broken 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
8:14 pm
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 up 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 voting 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. i was worse study senior fellow mike martin. thank you for your analysis. thank you. and here's a reminder of the top story. we're following for you at this hour. the 60 people died when
8:15 pm
