Hi, I'm Martin and

this is Newsround.

First up to Russia -

where people have voted

to keep their president for another

six years, but not everyone

is happy with the result.

You might have heard of this man.

President Vladimir Putin.

He has ruled Russia for nearly 20

years and he's one of the most

important world leaders.

He used to be a spy and often likes

to show off how strong he is.

People in Russia have just voted

to keep him in charge

from another six years.

He won more than 75%

of the votes, so you might

think he's popular there.

But not everyone is

happy with the result.

Some think the election was unfair.

There are claims that some

of the votes for President Putin

weren't real, that his supporters

made them up and put them

in boxes to be counted.

He was up against seven other people

but one important challenger wasn't

allowed to stand for president.

In some areas, voters were tempted

to the polls with food,

music and even small presents.

Some world leaders have

congratulated Putin for his win

but other countries,

which are more difficult

relationship with Russia, haven't.

Next, we've been travelling

around the UK hearing some

of your amazing real life stories.

Today, we're hearing from Daniel

and Sabrina who managed to do

something incredible,

all thanks to learning first aid.

I came home and phoned my

grandmother unconscious.

I feel really happy that I've

saved someone who I love.

In July, after school,

on the last day, we came upstairs

to say hello to our grandmother.

Straightaway we saw

her on the floor.

We saw that she couldn't breathe

so we opened up her airway,

we put her in the recovery position.

I was seeing if she wasn't choking

on her tongue or anything,

or anything was blocking her throat.

I was worried.

I didn't know if I

was doing it right.

I was a bit calm, all because of

Cub Scouts, I knew what to do.

When the paramedics came,

they were shocked on who put

them in this position,

and their words were

that we are diamonds.

I found it quite easy to learn

because all you had to do

is move her arms and legs

and open up airways.

Afterwards, we got to meet Prince

Harry because what of we've done.

I didn't know who he was before.

Prince Harry was quite amazed

about what we had done.

I think more children should learn

first aid because you don't know

when someone's going to collapse,

fall unconscious

or maybe even faint.

Next, meet Louis the gorilla.

Most gorillas like to move

around by leaning forward

and using their hands to walk with,

but not Louis.

His keepers say whenever

he has his hands full he walks

in an upright position

to keep his snacks clean.

Although some gorillas do this

for a couple of seconds Louis

is happy wandering on two feet

like a human.

Next, there's been a lot

of aaaawwing in the Newsround

office over these guys.

I've been finding out why these

dachshunds are dashing around.

Come on, time for walkies!

Hang on, that's more

than I was expecting.

Almost 1,000 tiny sausage dogs

and their owners got together

in Greenwich Park in London.

The walk was to celebrate

the dachshund breed

and because it was a bit nippy

lots of them were wrapped up.

Nice coat.

Nice dress!

It was the third sausage walk.

Now that's a lot of pawsome pooches!

OK, that's not great.

This guy is definitely

better than me.

Justice Osei discovered

he had the unusual talent

of copying animal noises.

He can do about 50

different species.

And is trying to get a world record.

That's it from me.

We'll be back tomorrow at 7.40.

bye.
