reports from ukraine say armed soldiers have been going door to door in occupied parts of the country to collect votes for self styled referendums on joining russia. russian state media says door to door voting is necessary for security reasons. these are the four areas where voting is being held. they include occupied parts of luhansk and donetsk in the east, and zaporizhzhia and kherson, in the south and cover around 15% of ukraine s territory. the so called referendums have been widely condemned. president biden described them as a sham and a false pretext to try to illegally annex parts of ukraine. our correspondent, james waterhouse. reports from kyiv. russia s version of their so called referendums a free and fair democratic process where ukrainians in kherson decide whether they want tojoin russia. but, on the same spot today in the city centre, it s deserted. ukrainian officials have posted footage like this. apparently, ballots being taken door to door with the sup
