BBC World Service - Newsday, The US state of Florida is making preparations for Hurricane Ian

The latest Atlantic hurricane tore through western Cuba knocking out power supplies

The latest Atlantic hurricane is arriving in Florida after devastating parts of Cuba, knocking out power supplies in the west of the Caribbean island.

Hurricane Ian has passed over Cuba knocking out the entire electricity grid and destroying crops - it's strengthening and heading towards Florida where 2.5m people have been told to evacuate.

Russia has concluded its discredited referendums in 4 regions of occupied Ukraine - it's widely expected that Moscow will announce that they have delivered a result in favour of joining Russia - we hear from a journalist whose family is one of the areas.

And after President Vladimir Putin's announcement of a "partial mobilization" of army reservists, many of those of military age are fleeing the country - we hear from one young man who has travelled from St Petersburg across the border to Georgia to avoid conscription.
