the country's borders are now closed and all state institutions dissolved in a televised address. they said sunday's election in which president probably bung the one. the 3rd term lacked credibility. tensions have been running high since the vote with claims from the opposition to voting irregularities. so far there has been no reaction to the announcement from the government are corresponded to at least that your coma is monitoring events in gamble and for us who joins us from lagos in nigeria. alisa, what more can you tell us about this too and the people behind it? well terry, it's still trickling in the big news this morning, early in the capital liber billing gap on why we so many offers us about 12 of them coming out to a national tv in the country to announce that they are putting that entity res. seem according themselves to committee for the transition on integration offer

institutions. i've also thought about the kind of getting the elections that which was held on on saturday. i closing the boulders and to solving the governments of the constitution and also the parliament and the senate. so uh that's because that's what gets in right now up on the top, the liberty in gap on we're on the opposite offices. so just wearing the green bear re read the better way to represent in different parts of the different policies. saying that the app, what's on and there isn't any word. yeah. tone. what's become a be a link to the government that we know where president bongo is spots. saturday . that's uh, is a tricky part because uh since this announcements uh from uh, these on the offices that come in very early this morning just after the electrical body had the, you know, set a bunker, one subsidies elections we get. so here from the government's square here, so here from any bone going south hope out from the military did not mention it.

bosses what about so how he's doing the last time we saw out a bundle. the president was when he made his vote on saturday during the election. so days been the, what about is what about say, platform, but what gets in just a few weeks ago, the course there was that to in the share do and what lists in the region see any connection between these events. well of course that is what is old points into uh, just about a month ago. we had an issue uh in that needs uh, with the military entrance uh, taken over and just uh, you know, weeks the end you didn't have that this morning as early. uh, it's, uh, it's got bought in central africa. so if you look at it in west africa, and since that i forgot since 2020, terry combined cruise about about 8 keys uh top rated about the attempted cruise. you bought it in places like you need to be solved. so you didn't have molly on that really to june, so you didn't have book enough price. so you have denny, you have the issue that we saw and shot 2 years ago with them. how about interest?

that'd be, i now knew that and now god born and such a logic, i rejoined last to worry about. so in terms of uh for the year, you echo as i live on the country. is it under a different you're just in africa? nice now. but lisa, thank you very much for bringing this up to date. that was the w's elisa to come up in lagos. let's get some european reaction to those developments in bon uh we're joined by alexandra phenomena our brussels bureau chief. she's currently in toledo, in spain, where you defense ministers are meeting like that are what are we hearing from you leaders about what appears to be a coo and double say well, we oscar use foreign policy chief, you know, said burrell above his assessment of the situation in the bone and you could tell that he was really concerned about the situation. he said that the topic and stuff, and that's the on the agenda. often the new service meeting. sure. until later on

here also stressed that it's confirmed those who would be and never an evidence how in stable how increasingly and stable the situation in the region is becoming. and that is of course, a reason to be worried for the you were p in union and it's ministers off to the cool in molly, a no go on. and so many analysts are saying that the european union is losing its influence in the region. and the day a urgency need a new strategy for this a while now this apparent coo and give on comes just weeks after another military takeover in the share. both these countries are former french colonies. you mentioned a you influence in the region frances particularly involved. what does this mean for france? well, friends is definite cnn unique situation here as a former colonial power in the region. and they still have troops across the region

. fighting 3 against in islam is to and so we have seen the military in june taught in molly, for instance, in, i'm sorry, in the, in the share a targeting of friends in particular. and also calling on the french ambassador to leave the country. so there is also a growing criticism when it comes to friends with a g for the region. but so far we heard from the french president the mano mccomb was quite defiant, defending to a differential policy there and, and saying that it was actually friends that so it had so far prevented the gross of it's the mystic movements in the region. but the criticism is growing as i said, and of course, we have to see how the discussion will be progressing here during the meeting of the defense and later on foreign ministers of the european union. and what kind of proposal we will see on the table. thanks andrea. thank you very much. that was the

w. alexander from them until later spring are now to the ongoing war in ukraine. russian officials say that ukraine has launched one of its biggest waves of retaliatory drone attack since the start of the war. one drones drank reportedly targeted the western region of this cost near the border with estonia and left. the governor said the training and drones hit an airport and damage several military aircraft. they're fresh as military also claim to have supported a ukrainian naval attack on the black sea, destroying 4 boats carrying up to 50 paratroopers. the claims could not be very far . meanwhile, officials in ukraine's capital key of say, an overnight garage of missile of russian missiles and drones has killed at least 2 people. your brains military said it shut down all 28,

miss owls. and most of the 16 drones launched in the city over night, debris from the intercepted objects fell on several buildings. russia's said, it was official said, it was russia's most powerful aerial assault on keep, in several months. our special correspond to abraham is in the training and capital. she told us more about these recent attacks. so it was another sleepless night here in key of terry. but it seems that the air defense was able to intercept most of the rockets targeted here at the capital. but tragically, 2 people did lose their lives when debris hit a building. actually not very far away from here about 2 kilometers from where i'm standing right now. it's devastating, but unfortunately that is part of daily life here in ukraine where no one know where is really safe, even hundreds of kilometers away from the front line. ukrainian people,

70 or 18 months of these attacks now has no end inside. how are they coping with absolutely, there's also a tool on mental health and it's very often women that bear the brunt of you know, the devastation that a conflict like this brings on a mental health here in ukraine. terry women are becoming increasingly afraid of attacks, not just by russian soldiers, but also by their own partners. and the war is fueling fresh wave of domestic violence, traumatized, amend, returning from the battlefield or ones who are not able to cope with the economic hardship or taking the stress out on their families. and i want to warn our viewers . some parts of this report that we're about to play can be disturbing. 4

days ago, you ya was still living in fear as now she can have breakfast to piece with her children at this women's shelter near to you have to know. yeah, is meet the i'm bruised all over. i have bruises everywhere. i had one on my head. my blue eye is gone now. huge. me like that afternoon with a show you. it's a julia tells me her partner was always violent to her, but things got worse when russians occupied the southern, her son area where they lived with factories closing. her partner lost his job and use the little they had to buy alcohol. when she complained she did not have enough to feed her 5 children, she would batter her. yes, yes. and the fit thoughts of my eldest son is 16 years old. just at mom. what are you waiting for? i waiting for him to q u r os. i get a lot of support from my son a one time she was beating me in front of my son, my door to open the window and child to to the neighbor is killing mom. i probably

should have conceded to rather it was the water leaving with him earlier. i just didn't know what i would do with my children. the other 2 short and registered cases of domestic violence initially sell at the beginning of the full scale invasion as millions for their homes for felt like it was just not the right time to report the abuse. but as people have been returning to their homes or finding new ones, cases had stored this year, according to police data. was reno sure snow heads and newly formed special unit at the general prosecutor's office. it's dedicated to investigating cases of domestic violence. she says she's convinced the spiking numbers of domestic cases is connected to the war for them. and his goal for a man is a very ton of prisoners of war from cuba to civilians from captivity changes communication in the family. also, the difficult financial situation of force to migrants,

unemployment to propose all these a factors that lead to an increase in cases of domestic violence was up to you was reaching out to the much them a fix, the kitchen items at the shelter. you is clear that the war made her partner more violent than before. the 1st one had not invaded. none of this would have happened. you wouldn't be able to support our selves, our think would be fine with work. another thing for the women trying to help you, you get back on her feet. the word makes no difference. their focus is on her, not him the quick and we'll probably have some of the challenge is there to these women need to be taught to love themselves. so they need to learn to love themselves as the to accept themselves as the many women do not love themselves. and because of these, they often stay in such relationships with this guy to stick him over the last one

. you is working towards finding a job. she says she's determined, she'll never again depend on an abuser to feed her children as we heard in your report, the ukrainians authorities do believe the domestic violence has increased as a direct result of the war. do they have any sense of how wide spread? the problem is of the well, we have seen a numbers of really increase this here. and you know, cases like you use are becoming more and more common. that's at least what social workers and n g a workers told me and they can get much, much worse and, and more tragically. earlier this month, a 34 year old woman, i went to try to read her name and lou, both born your cover was found dead in her apartment with $75.00 bruises on her

body. i witnesses and neighbors told reporters that in the 2 weeks prior to that her husband who had deserted the army and come back, was getting drunk and beating her repeatedly. and so there is also a fear that, um, you know, these cases are going to get much, much, much worse. and, you know, the people that i've spoken to, they tell me they hope that more women will, you know, have the courage to try and seek help outside the home. speaking of help, uh, what kind of help do women in ukraine usually get in these situations that you as well since the war? unfortunately, resources to deal with gender based violence have been stretched, then many shelters have had to be re purpose to house, displaced people or have been have come under attack or been destroyed because of the war. state resources have also gone down in a 2021 year before the war. the state dedicated about 10000000 euros

a to combat gender based on violence. this here, that number is about 4200000. but because state resources are stretched a sin and it's been, you know, that the woman that i spoke to you the she had been living in abuse for years. and one of the reasons she told me why she decided to, to leave just a couple of days before we spoke to her, was that the police officer who came to investigate one of their calls in the middle of the night said, hey, there's the shelter. it's close by, you can go there. and so it's a real fear for the social workers that are working on this that you know, with the resources elsewhere because of this devastating were women may continue to be the ones that bear the brunt of the conflict. and thank you so much for your reporting. that was dw special correspondent at abraham in t sketchup on a few other stores making headlines around the world. today,

the russian mercenary leader, you've got any pre goshen, has apparently been buried in a private ceremony in his hometown of saint petersburg. the wagner group co founder was killed last week and a plane crunch. the white house has indicated it believes the kremlin was involved in his dance. trying to his arrested 5 officials on suspicion of under reporting the number of deaths from a flash flood authorities initially said 6 people were missing when water submerged a construction site in jin young county, more than a week ago and investigation revealed. the real number of missing was nearly 50. several us states have declared emergencies as they prepare for the impact of hurricane it died. yeah, it's expected to make land fall today is an extremely dangerous category for storm residents in florida, georgia and south carolina have all been warned of the catastrophic impacts of

strong winds and storm surge. plenty the calm before the storm. residents in the city of perry and florida, preparing for hurricane and don, is arrival businesses were boarded up an even inmate's from a nearby prison withdrawals to den, to help fill sand bags to buffer against possible flood waters. but local still hope for the best we've gone through a lot of hurricanes. we pray. god turns them around, you know, fizzles them out. we believe that this is the safe place. her face comes still going to be safe place even anywhere. rushing, rain and high winds with the initial signs on florida is marco island,

the dani. it was making its way over to us tools on tuesday. as the impending hurricane chased residents away from the gulf coast, florida as governor, run desantis, old residents, the crunch time is coming and it is going to have major impacts, particularly along florida's big bend region. so listen to your local officials, take the appropriate precautions to protect you and your family. and once the storm passes, we will have help. that will be on the way. these utility trucks are on standby to mobilize in the event of mass power outages. it dahlia is making its way over to the southern united states from cuba, where it has left the trail of devastation in its wake. it closed extensive flooding. it is expected to recover can florida

president joe biden has pledged as much support as will be needed to the states. earlier we spoke to mr. ologist and atmospheric sciences. matthew can pushy, he's in perry, florida, which is right in the valley is past. he told us how the situation is developing there, say, good morning, you know, interestingly right now we're not seeing very strong winds at all. in fact, they're mostly calm, but it's deceptively calm. it's like the calm before the store and the reason being in a hurricane like this, you have so much air moving upwards of the middle of the storm spiraling inwards networks with those very strong winds. that every so often on the outer edges, the periphery of the storm. you get fans is thinking in air with calm winds. that's what's happening right now. but later on this morning in about 2 or 3 hours, conditions blow rapidly. that's usually right here. as you start seeing wind gusts approaching, perhaps 882200 kilometers per hour later on, like we said,

just 3 or 4 hours away as land fall comes soon. we're talking heavy rainfall as well, and the order about 10 to 20 centimeters in spots a significant to life threatening storm surge of up to about 4 meters as we push water against the coastline and tornado with as well. we seem to rein warnings, issued several possible touch downs, and in addition to that, so the ultimately we're seeing a slew of the worst conditions. you can imagine it all comes in just a few hours time right around sunrise, if not a little beforehand. talk to us more about that storm surge. matthew, there is a lot of concern about it. tell us more about what it is and why storm surge is so dangerous. wellstar sir, so essentially water, but ordinarily dry the ground. you're pushing the water against the coastline, with those strong winds. in the case of the big bin to florida. this area in the northeastern gulf of mexico apalachee bay, it's especially considered use something called the symmetry or the shape of the sea floor. essentially, the sea floor is very gently sloping, very shallow. oh,

i get a picture your help of your friend moving to his or her apartment. if you had a ramp and you were moving stuff up the ramp on the wheels, the object of sorts, it'd be very difficult to the rambles kind of straight up and down like this. there's a lot of flat gradually sloping ramp is very easy to push stuff up that ramp. same thing here. the sea floor slips very generally. it's so easy to pile water against the coast line, causing net, slashed over and in this case with still munching stream. when to target and aim towards the coast line, you have that surcharge of 3 dollars, 5 meters in spots. and keep in mind that some communities that have never seen a service like this before will be below water. that's why we were having everyone try to evacuate. we're really urging folks get out of town, some post aid. some folks went hopefully folks went, well, how, how are the conditions there for helping the people get out of town? if they're, there's so many people that are in the storms past, are they able to evacuate

a time for them is running out. and i think there are 2 challenges facing us, both as meter offices communicators, number one that we've been telling people, it's time to go, it's time to get out of dodge. but the issue is we have hurricane data getting back to the 1851 here. we've never seen a major hurricane in the apalachee be where we are. and so one of the issues, anytime we have a disaster, is that people try to compete. i try to base their actions on prior experience. but the problem is they've never experienced anything like what they will to day. they have no base of comparison. and they often times make really poor decisions. and a lot of folks are staying saying, oh, what was the hurricane for, for sure, that's new storms before. but nothing of this magnitude here, at least where we are in this part of florida. the other thing too, is that we can tell people to evacuate, that we don't help them do it. some people just physically can't weather for economic reasons. some people can't take your time off work. some people can't, don't have a vehicle. so people don't have enough funding to put ghastly vehicles or they don't have a place to go to where are they going, how long it takes to get there. other people have mobility issues,

some people are disabled, some people might need oxygen tags. they don't have means to be transported. and so ultimately, some people want to evacuate, but simply can't. and we can't be quick to judge it is unfortunately a, there are people who just simply can't do it in a situation like this. matthew, thank you so much. that was matthew. you can put you in, perry, florida. thank you. so of course there's now an intent is the 1st round of us opened continued on tuesday with some big hitters taking to the court along those and action. we're renting men's champion, carlos our controls and to win to time women's champion, venus williams. the 2 players are very different stages in their careers, and that showed all a day of high drama in new york. the writing was on the wall for dominique cook fun at the bottom of your screen from the very 1st game of these clash with defending champion. carlos al perez, the gym. and having rolled his ankle painfully with the schools, philip neil neal cooper played on until midway through the 2nd set,

full throwing in the towel against an opponent. many expect the chinese for the crown 2016 champion stand, but ring care had to work a little hard of his 1st round when the switch eventually of the coming is she told me she yoke of japan 766-2642 reach the 2nd phase or in the women's tournaments that a russian world number to a ring, a sub link up serving here. breeze posts, belgian opponent marine incentives, go with a 636 to victory. meanwhile a pink plaid, venus williams suffered who am i was looked cited loss in 20 for us typing appearances. losing to belgium greets minute and 616143 year old williams is like to to i'm champion from earlier in the illustrious career. the spanish government has taken further steps to try to remove the head of the national football

federation. the sports ministry has sent more documents to a tribunal examine and complaints against louise ruby alice for kissing player jenny. i'm also without her consent after the world come. spain's sports minister says ruby. alice should be suspended. who's coming? we are waiting to know if this boards try beautiful channel. the process for a serious infraction against mr. luis ruby. alice was, the court allows the demands to be heard or we can convene within 48 hours with the managing director of the sports council, or where we're going to propose the suspension of the price of it to an ex president of the spanish football association until the final resolution of the sports tribunal is taken if you need to, but it is, you know, it is unacceptable. there's an exact same should stay in such an important landmark . and one that we feel so proud of, such as the women's national team winning the world cup and making history i finished. so you're watching dw news. just reminder of the top story. we're following for you this, our,
