It was the referendum Anthony Albanese promised to hold at the last election, but pretty much all the opinion polls suggest that when Australians cast their votes, it will be a resounding “No” to an Indigenous Voice to Parliament. The Voice would act as an independent advisory body to the government for First Nations people, but the proposed change to the Constitution has led to a divisive and heated debate. Today, ABC reporter Isabella Higgins on why Yes campaigners still see a glimmer of hope and what to expect when you wake up the morning after the vote. Featured: Isabella Higgins, ABC reporter
It's been a horrifying few days for Ukrainians, as Russia continues its full-scale attack on their homeland.

Today we speak with journalist Fedir Sydoruk on how Ukrainians in Kyiv are fighting back in a way Russia never expected, and we hear from the ABC's Europe Correspondent, Isabella Higgins, in Lviv.

And, a young Ukrainian woman describes her fears for what lies ahead.
