of manpower, a lot of time to get to some of the farther outreach areas. not to mention that we're still in rescue mode, many communities are still surrounded by floodwater. this morning, the desperate search in florida for survivors, fire ands rescue teams from across the state combing the hardest-hit barrier islands and days after landfall rising rivers continue to flood areas inland. citizens volunteering with personal boats to help make rescues. >> we decided to go in because the water level's been going up. >> reporter: we linked up with jeremy and brian who patrolled the flooded streets of north port. on return we came up on three women being rescued. >> never seen anything like this, like it was the most horrific sound. it was the worst sound that i have ever heard. >> reporter: this video showing emergency workers and those they've rescued across florida safely landing to south fort

myers where the high school has been turned into a shelter. >> they've done a lot of water rescues here. >> reporter: and as the rescue numbers mount, so too does the death toll from hurricane ivan. the latest death toll nationwide, 76 people confirmed dead, a number that keeps climbing. back in florida, more than 700,000 customers still without power. duke energy hoping to restore service to 90% of its customers by tonight. gasoline is hard to come by here in the hurricane zone. look at the length of this line. it goes doing about a half a mile. people waiting over two ours. in fort myers, waiting for other essentials like food and water. now, duke power's one of three big providers here in florida, florida power and light services most of the area that got hit hard here in lee county and charlotte county. obviously many homes like this one are way too damaged to even take power. now there were some anxious times over the weekend with rivers rising.

they're still in major flood stage. they were worried about a levee there breaking. so far, it is holding. finally this morning, the rivers are beginning to slowly recede. eva? >> small bit of good news for the people. rob, thank you so much. now to those questions over the timing of evacuation orders in lee county, florida, where nearly half of ian's deaths occurred. abc's reena roy joins us from venice, florida, with more. good morning, reena. >> reporter: as you just heard from rob the southwestern coast here just got hammered. take a look at this structure here behind us, this was once a theater, now it's completely gutted. you can see why so many were told to get out, but some say lee county's warning came too late. 35 of the 71 deaths in this state were from that county alone. this morning, as the death toll from hurricane ian grows, so do questions about evacuation

orders in hard-hit lee county, and if they should have come sooner to help save lives. local authorities under fire, defending their decision to issue a mandatory evacuation tuesday morning instead of monday like some counties nearby. >> when we went to bed monday night, people were saying this is a direct hit on tampa bay worst case scenario of the state. as that track started to shift south, and the computer models the next morning, they called for the evacuation. they opened their shelters and they responded very quickly to the data. >> reporter: but as the storm shifted, lee county is exactly where ian made landfall. and in the end those communities were some of the hardest hit. new satellite images showing fort myers beach before the storm and now the destruction that remains in its wake. >> now i've lost everything. everything, my life savings, my tools, everything.

>> reporter: sanibel island decimated. its causeway ripped apart. homes destroyed. two women in bonita springs also i lee county chose to ride out the storm. they narrowly escaped a rapidly flooding house. >> we both thought we were going to drown in the house. when we couldn't get the door open, we both came to terms with, we're going to die in this house. >> reporter: swimming with two dogs to higher ground, waiting five hours to be rescued. and one of those women tells us that she has lived in the area for years and has often been warned of storm surge, but never really thought it could be this bad. guys? >> really is heart wrenching to hear from those families. reena roy, thank you. we do move overseas to the war in ukraine, and what appears to be another significant victory for ukrainian forces as russian troops abandon a key city in the east. abc's tom soufi burridge joins us now from kyiv with the very latest. tom, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, whit. yai -- yeah, another major advancement for the ukrainians and pretty significantly they're now pushing the russians back in

the eastern donbas. ukraine retaking the city of lyman only captured by the russians four months ago. how this war has swung in ukraine's favor. a bitter blow to putin after he laid claim over the hold of eastern ukraine. this morning, ukrainian forces on the advance. here soldiers rising their blue and yellow flag back in city of lyman, it's a strategically important gain for the eastern donbas ukrainian troops. an area which the kremlin claimed in an illegal land grab. but ukrainian troops now shouting glory. and taking down signs of russian rule. these videos posted by ukrainian officials. ukraine building on the huge gains it made in the northeast last month, shown here in blue, now breaking further east and recapturing lyman, a transport hub. putin's key ambition to take ukraine's entire donbas region slipping away. overnight, president zelenskyy saying the world will not return

to times of colonial conquests and criminal annexations. and in newly liberated land in the east, evidence of russia's alleged war crimes mounting again. another horrific scene, ukrainian prosecutors saying this civilian convoy fleeing the fighting this week was shelled by the russians. killing 24 people including 13 children and a pregnant woman. this survivor saying even after the shelling as they lay on the ground they were fired at with guns. now, ukraine's latest gains show that strong u.s. support for this country is working, but one major calculus right now is if ukraine pushes russia right back, could putin resort to nuclear weapons? the white house said it's communicated privately to the russians what the consequences of that will be. ad adding, the u.s. is not currently seeing any indication

of the imminent use of nuclear weapons by the russians. >> but the whole world will be watching. tom, thank you. staying overseas now to breaking news overnight out of indonesia. a horrific stampede at a soccer stadium there. abc's lama hasan joins us, and lama, the death toll and number of injured there is just staggering. >> reporter: good morning to you, janai, now this is one of the world's worst stadium disasters. here's what we know at this hour. at least 125 people were killed, more than 180 others injured at a soccer stadium in indonesia after a game between two arch rivals. videos from the stadium show the home team fans storming the soccer field after the final whistle angry at the last. riots breaking out and police firing tear gas to try to stop them. that caused people to start to panic. the crowd surging to try to exit the stadium and you can see fans struggling to escape. the indonesian president has ordered all soccer games to be suspended until the horrific incident has been investigated,

eva. >> lama, thank you. now to that sudden deal that just released seven americans detained in venezuela. the white house saying the men were released in exchange for two venezuelans held here. abc's maryalice parks is at the white house with more. good morning, maryalice. >> reporter: eva, good morning. yeah, this is big. every american the u.s. government has said was wrongful detained in venezuela now headed home. a major prisoner swap. president biden, we are told approved of this deal a few weeks ago. this group of seven freed americans includes some executives from citgo petroleum. they've been detained for several years. there's also a marine corps veteran. president biden has spoken with all of their families. the united states released two in exchange for bringing them home, the united states released two venezuelan men referred to as the narco nephews. they're related to current president of venezuela, maduro. arrested nearly seven years and convicted for smuggling in cocaine, this deal comes as

there's so much attention on americans wrongfully detained in russia, paul whelan and brittney griner. there is a concern that bad actors see a deal like this and think there's reason to take americans hostage, but yesterday the white house tried to emphasize these kind of deals are extremely rare. whit? >> maryalice parks, thank you. now to california and the hunt for what police may be a serial killer responsible for five deaths this year. abc's zohreen shah is in los angeles with more on what we're learning, zohreen, good morning. >> reporter: hey, good morning, whit, a terrifying scenario in stockton. police are telling us the five deaths there meet the definition of a potential serial killer, and this is the image they want you to see of the person of interest. what's so striking is that police say there is physical evidence on all five crime scenes that link the cases together. at this point they're not saying what it is, but patterns they're seeing, all the victims are men between 21 and 54, and mostly all hispanic.

the deaths taking place in various locations since july, all the way up until last week, and all when victims were alone and in the dark. in places late at night or the early hours of the morning. police say all of them were ambushed. none were robbed and none were gang related. stockton police say they are putting together to look into patterns that investigators have noticed and one big unknown is if there's more than one killer that they're looking for. janai. >> so many questions. thank you. now to gas prices, after months of steady decline they're creeping up again. in california, they're approaching the record highs we saw this summer. for a look at y abc's deirdre bolton is here. deirdre, break it down for us. >> reporter: all right. good morning, janai. nationally prices are creeping up, they around 3.79 per gallon after 14 straight weeks of moving lower, and while some places like new york are relatively stable, the west

coast is completely different story. california, prices are skyrocketing. in some places, prices soaring overnight by 20 cents. l.a. drivers paying an average of $6.45 on average. gasbuddy tells me the number of refineries has fallen, about 30% in california in the last 15 years and so when one goes offline there's no slack left. as a result of the higher prices governor gavin newsom pushing early distribution of cheaper winter blend gasoline, that's cheaper to produce, lower prices at the pump, between 10 and 30 cents per gallon starting mid to late september through november, as gas stations switch to this winter gasoline. demand falls as well seasonally as we start to stay closer to home. back to you. >> thank you. to the midterm elections now, just 36 days away, we're on

the ground in wisconsin talking with voters who will decide major races for senate and governor. abc's alex presha has more. >> reporter: with the midterm election just over a month away, there are some election dog fights playing out in some states. wisconsin is one of them, with tightly contested senate and gubernatorial races. we spent the weekend talking to voters all over the state about key issues. fall weekend are about the only time this city of madison is a sea of red. the wisconsin badgers taking the field against the fighting illini. our first stop, downtown. >> i think wisconsinites and americans in general are fed up with inflation and the economy. >> inflation is a passing issue. obviously everybody is affected by it, but i think abortion would be the main one. >> reporter: down the street, rob rents this sneaker shop. he's an independent, but ahead of the midterms he's paying close attention to the future of the democratic party. >> five to eight people they can get behind with republicans.

ask a democrat the same thing, they'd be scratching their head. >> reporter: about an hour southeast is janesville. it's largely blue collar. we found a bar run by the o'reilly family. that's where i met tracy who began by telling me she was opi opinionated. >> i'm tired of like the middle class being left behind and i feel that they let crime or criminals just feel that they had a path. >> reporter: she voted for trump in 2020 but some of her concerns were shared by moderates as well, and one top issue that kept coming up was the economy. >> for here inflation is the greatest concern. >> reporter: time will tell. the two consistents across party lines, they lived up to the midwest friendly reputation and they all bleed badger red. this morning they're also united by a little bit of frustration.

the badgers falling to the illini yesterday. something else we're hearing is harsh rhetoric. particularly in the senate race. telling us that they would like to see the temperature turned down just a bit. eva? >> our thanks to alex presha. the midterms on the minds of many americans and we'll be following them close. we're following out of dlines - washington and beyond. let's bring in jonathan karl who will be hosting "this week" later this morning. always so good to have you. let's start with the national archives. they're telling congress that some trump administration records are still missing, and this goes beyond the records donald trump took with him to mar-a-lago. >> yeah, this is a letter to one of the congressional oversight committees from the national archivist, and what's interest is this has nothing to do with the records donald trump took with him to mar-a-lago. this is other administration officials who still some 20 months after the end of the trump presidency have not turned

over their official records. a lot of this is electronic records, eva. this is emails, other electronic messages. they were done on personal devices, and those records were supposed to have been turned over. the archives has been trying to get them, and they suggest and this is the significant thing that they may ask the justice department to be involved. so you could see potential legal actions against other trump administration officials who have not turned over their records. by the way, no names mentioned on this. we don't know who exactly they're talking about. >> that's interesting. looking overseas, putin really escalating the war in ukraine this past week, raising the possibility of russia using nuclear weapons, how does the u.s. respond to these threats? >> putin announced this annexation in a remarkable speech on friday that was filled with threats and suggestions that this war could go far beyond ukraine, really portraying it as a war of russia

against the west and, yes, talking about nuclear weapons, saying the united states set the precedent when we used nuclear weapons in hiroshima and nagasaki in world war ii. ominous. it hasn't deterred the united states. in fact, congress just this week approved another $12 billion in military aid to ukraine, bringing the total to over $50 billion, and biden responded to all of this with a warning that putin must not -- he said don't. don't, when asked about the possibility of nuclear weapons. >> jonathan karl, always so good to have you on sunday morning. tune into "this week" later this morning. jon is one-on-one with fema administrator deanne criswell. and senator marco rubio in florida about the ongoing recovery efforts after hurricane ian. plus jon speaks exclusively with general david petraeus. about russia's annexation of ukrainian territories and about the mounting nuclear threat amid the stall in that war. time now for a check of the weather, let's go to danielle
