oh, okay, let's pick this up with the w correspondent, nick connelly in k. welcome, nick. and we had that hockey's man describing these attacks on power grids as rushes revenge for recent ukrainian successes. how disruptive are they 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 fro

and for the latest on ukraine were joined now by d. w's, nick connelly in keith. and nick, this sounds very much like a route by the ukrainians, but can they hold on to the territory they're recapturing? well, so far in this war, the ukraine forces have done a lot more defending than attacking, and they've shown that they can hold those russian forces back are basically all the advances we've seen by russian forces in recent months have been at a kind of pace of a few 100 meters a day at most few kilometers a week. and now they've done the total opposite. they've really made gains of dozens of kilometers in the space of a few days. seems like they worked out that there was a weak point in russia's kind of forces along ukraine's front lines in the south. and in dawn by the east, they were more in the way of professional russian soldiers here. and there had give most of the forces, there were people who been basically ganged in to fighting for russia. these people from huntington, it's often without military training and with worse equipment. and it seems like ukrai

and let me just nick, do we still have nick? yes, i'm here. thank you. now, okay, let me just send me that we had some technical problems there you are at the scottish parliament where on key charles met with 1st minister nicholas sturgeon today. how does scotland view its relationship with the new king? particularly regarding the question of independence as a really good question to day in parliament to be the leaders of all the parties. the actually gave gives short speech in front to king charles on the queen concert . and far one. it was very respect people wish were taking the religions and ending the speeches with culture, the king. there was one party this gaudy green party which is self confessed republican. so the anti more and a message wasn't as warm, but just leave it like that. but for the moment, this is not the time for divest politics, that is going to come. and i think we're going to find over the remainder of this year, the whole constitutional debate will gather pace. because we've got a situation where over 40 percent, office of discu

i thank you for that, nick and nick, commonly in hockey. the russian president, vladimir putin has acknowledged that the china moscow's most important ally, ask questions, and concerns about the war in ukraine. he was making. it was becky stan, during his 1st of face to face talks with chinese president gigi and pink census thought of russia's invasion. but he also thanked china for what he called beijing's balanced position towards his war. vladimir putin is in some are kind to strengthen ties with his regional partners. the shanghai co operation organization of your asian nations has grown insignificant for russia since it's invasion of ukraine, lead western states to impose sanctions on moscow. by far, the most important meeting for putin was with his chinese counterpart. she jin ping . it's the chinese president's 1st foreign trip since the start of the corona virus pandemic, despite warm words and their opening remarks, putin hinted at friction with paging over the invasion of ukraine. we highly value the balance position of our chines

w correspondent, nick connelly in keith. nick. so we've been hearing that ukraine's been having some success in the northeast. but more can you tell us well, indeed, in just the last hour that be report see frame media that ukraine forcing are taking the strategic town of coupons. it's not fully confirmed yet, but we have seen pictures and social media of rush of ukrainian troops rather and from the town hall there that is a long way away from the previous positions from the previous towns that ukraine taken in recent days, dozens of kilometers to really does seem like ukraine forces are making very fast progress. this again, situation where in dumbass, russia has been taking a couple of 100 meters at best every couple of days. so a real contrast and a sense that the cranes have caught the russians of god. all the talk in previous weeks months was about the south about had a song, and maybe that was a distraction tactic to get rushed to focus its efforts. there it seems like lots the troops in this part of ukraine on the russian s

nick, standby. not, i'd like to bring you in at this point. tribute is following the death of the queen elizabeth ii. and the british nation is also coming to terms. as nick rightly said, with the death of a monarch, that they will have only have known, she's been on the throne for 70 years, many people here, in the uk, will simply have known nobody else. >> absolutely, becky. and for so many people, there's so much turmoil, through political chaos, through crisis in nations, for the last 78 years, the queen has been a real symbol of stability, continuity, and a real rock really for the nation that saw the outpouring of grief yesterday. the queen had passed. crowds had gathered outside buckingham palace laying flowers. waiting in the rain, through terrible weather, throughout the night, to express their sadness, together, in mourning. we saw london's black cab drivers lining the streets. -- other residences, and we saw her in windsor yesterday. my colleague, scott mccain, as he was, saying [inaudible] they were all deeply saddened by her passi

nick, thank you very much for now. our correspond nick connelly, they're in tip now to pakistan, where authorities in the south of the country have breached a fresh major, fresh water lake as it threatens to overflow and swamp. nearby towns, water levels on lake munch are are said to be dangerously high following record monsoon flooding. satellite images show the scale of disaster following a severe drought monsoon range and melting glaciers have submerged a 3rd of pakistan. millions have lost their homes. oliver maia visited a carpenter and his son in sinned province, and heard how their lives had been turned upside down by the floods. rashana lee and his son, the mom, have lost everything. they put their savings into building a house, which they finished only 2 months ago, and the sudden province of sinned the floods have wiped at their home and all their hopes lesson, mary will not go da da, i work my whole life to build this house and i've never owned a home before, only alone. we were so happy when we finally mana

nobody w's nick connelly and keith nick, how significant are these recent gains and you think the army can hold on to the territory? they've recaptured this is truly a big deal. i think this is the biggest shift in territory held that we've seen for months now. if you remember in recent times, we've seen the russians of the ukrainians for that matter, advancing a couple of 100 meters a day may be a few kilometers a week. and this is a matter of dozens of clumps in the space of a few days. and to top all of that in a part of the country that the russians just weren't expecting, we'd handle that expectation built up about the ukranian can't fence from the south nick at san and in the end it ended up being inserted different part of the country where the russian forces were very poorly supplied, where lots of the russian forces were actually people mobilized from low hunts convenience, often against their will with very little in the way of equipment and military training. we've seen those attempts now by the russian leadership to explain this away is some kind of redirection of forces at

>> you know, nick, i want to come back to you in one microclimate on this point. but laura, on your end, the fact that bill barr is coming out pretty forcefully against trump on fox news, i wonder what message this might send? keep in mind, as we all know, this is somebody who has written a book, who is not necessarily going to be invited to thanksgiving dinner of the former president there, potentially persona non grata to one another. how does this come across politically? >> well, there have been a lot of -- i shouldn't say a lot there have been a number of republicans similar to bill barr who are part of more of the establishment republican party who have been trying to caution against rallying to trump's side in wake of the mar-a-lago search. they've tried to say that there is a lot of information that we don't know here, including potentially how extensive this breach was. how many people, you know, potentially had access to these documents? was it a small handful? was it a lot of people given that we know a number of people circulate through mar-a-lago on a
