♪ new airstrikes in iraq this morning. the attacks coming as vandals strike in tikrit and setting fires and looting stores just hours after the city is liberated from isis. plus on this easter sunday, the pope sends a strong message to the world about terrorism. a furious weekend in theaters. a record breaking opening day. the biggest box office take for a film in almost two years.
4:01 am
♪ this is cnn breaking news. good morning everyone. i'm alison kosik in for christi paul. >> one of the terrorists in northeastern kenya in africa was the son of a kenyan government official. >> kenya government ministry he is identified on as al dalaby. >> offices say the shooter's father had reported to security agents his son had disappeared from home and he was helping police try to find him in the massacre happened. you'll remember, 147 people were killed when al shabab militants attacked garissa university on thursday. let's get more from soni methu in kenya. what more do we know about this gunman and his father? >> reporter: well, we do know, as you said, his name is abraham ab deli.
4:02 am
his father reported him as missing to security officials who were, at the moment, when the attack happened, actually looking for him. we know he is a graduate of lowe and studying here at the university of nairobi what is behind me, the university of nairobi. we do not know much about the other attackers but according to a father who spoke to a radio station, he said his son blew himself up. >> soni, we know some survivors this weekend are being reunited with their families. can you give us an insight into these reunions? >> reporter: indeed, victor. yesterday, more than ten buses carrying 600 members and 50 members of staff left garissa for various parts of the country. most of the students in the garissa university were not from there and taken back take their homes and some brought to
4:03 am
nairobi and families here in nairobi. it was a very cold and wet night. the students and staff members had such a long journey, it's about five hours' drive from garissa to nairobi and their car broke down on the way. it was raining heavily when they got to nairobi and it was so emotional for most of the families who looked for their loved ones in mortuaries and hospitals and tried to contact them and couldn't reach them. it was such a joy, so emotional to see some of these families reunite with their loved once. however the number of death by the government, a lot of these families are still saying that at least two families that we spoke to are saying they still cannot trace their loved ones. they have looked for them in hospitals, they have looked for them in the mortuary and they are also looked for them in the various places where the students were dropped off and they still can't trace their loved ones. they are still identifying bodies at the mortuaries so we expect to go there later on and
4:04 am
speak to the families and find out if actually all students have been accounted for as the government says. >> son inchi, i wonder we heard story of a girl inside that closet two days. do you know? and maybe they haven't said. but do you know if the search of the campus has been complete for possibly any other students who are still hiding? >> reporter: as late as yesterday, they were still looking for more students and still mopping up the area of the school, and this is what kenyans have taken now to tweet and saying 147 number of deaths were given was before the mop-up was completely. the school has been closed indefinitely and heavily guarded and not much we know about that complete such or complete accountability for all of the students, according to what the government is saying.
4:05 am
so we are hoping that that is it, but there is still students who, according to the red cross, was still hiding even after the attack was over. so there are some families who are saying students ran away to an unknown place. one of the fathers we spoke to still looking for his son say his son probably ran away somewhere or is among the dead but not accounted for. >> hopefully, answers will come soon for those families. soni methu, thank you. isis may be gone in iraq but the celebrations didn't last long. just hours after forces drove the terror group out of the battle-torn city, looting and lawlessness erupted in the streets and buildings set on fire and homes burned to the ground. all in a city the united states touted as a success. cnn's reporter is live in baghdad with the latest. what are you finding out now?
4:06 am
>> reporter: alison, you mentioned that victory in tikrit was really seen as this great victory for the iraqi forces. the first offensive that they carried out and were able to recapture a major population center. a city that was under isis control for nearly a year. but also as you mentioned in the past few days, we are now hearing reports and allegations that are starting to surface about abuses and violations that have been taking place by these liberating forces. as you recall, the forces were mainly made up of the members of the iraqi security force police but predominantly of the population mobilization units and a group that includes some of iraq's top shrkia militia ana large number of volunteers in that force. what we are hearing is according to senior security official in tikrit that we spoke to yesterday, he said that he, himself, witness at least 20
4:07 am
houses that were set on fire and 50 businesses, shops their looted or damaged and set on fire in that situation. he described the situation as being out of control, but perhaps more worrying, also reports that are emerging about possible executions that may have taken there. our arwa damon is there in the city after the rekaucapture of tikrit did seem to witness one of those incidents. at this point, we are seeing what is damage control mode by the government here. also the leadership of these popular mobilization units trying to move and act fast to change the perception of what is going on in tikrit. the prime minister ordering the arrest of any individuals involved in violations. also the popular mobilization units when senior commander today telling us that, yes, they acknowledge that some of these violations may be taking place,
4:08 am
but they are saying this is a large force and that this is being committed by a small number of people within that force. so they are taking this very seriously. it's unclear, alison, at this point, how widespread these violations are, but very important. all eyes are on these forces in tikrit as they prepare for other part of the country. also predominantly sunni, majority shia forces as the liberator will react how they are received in other areas. >> we have mentioned how the u.s. declared this as a success. any word from the u.s. about what is happening there? >> reporter: we haven't heard yet. it's really unclear, alison. th one concern, i believe for everyone at this point, is how widespread are these abuses that are taking place. as we have heard from the iraqi officials, investigations are ongoing. they are looking into the situation. we are hearing reports today that security forces may have taken control of the city. more of these popular
4:09 am
mobilization units, more of these militias that seem to be out of control pulling out of the city, so everyone would be looking at what happens now. how much damage control is really taking place. as you mentioned the u.s. did play a part in the fall and liberation of tikrit with those air strikes as iraqi forces seem to be stuck, unable to advance. in the final week, they allowed them to make that advance in tikrit. >> jomana karadsheh, thank you. live from baghdad. general marks, we have you back to talk about iraq. whether this is a one offer or not we will see. the concerns about the looting and destruction. one conversation with a senior iraqi official stood out in which he said, no, no plans are meat to do with the city after it was liberated from isis. an indicator of what is, obviously, a problem, a problem that the u.s. saw after the iraq
4:10 am
war of the last decade. >> bingo! victor, you hit it! the issue always is what we call phase four, the operations that occur affiliate the kinetics, after the fighting ceases. what are you going to do now that you've broken this thing? you know own it. what are you going to do to own it and put it back together? so the fact that the iraqi security forces were able to take tikrit is wonderful, it's marvelous. we should celebrate that. but it happened because they were propped up by by the u.s. air power and logistics and longstanding relationship with them, but also because of iran. iran have shia fighters and other forces are side-by-side in terms of getting up next to the iraqi security forces in terms of how this operation took place. so after the liberation, you always see looting. you see the celebration. that needs to be tamped down. but i think what the real focus, the real focus is the iraqi
4:11 am
security force is professional enough to take on the continued requirements of a fight, to establish security back in a country that they want desperately to try to retain. and isis, right now, has the upper hand, but the isf, the iraqi security forces, are doing a good job right now. but they have got to be able to maintain its professionalism moving forward and seeing the remnants of bad behavior in tikrit and probably see it again. >> does the u.s. have the interest or the credibility, the ability to separate these shiite ma liberias from the isf this fer unhappy with what they do? or train them to follow the order or the leadership of the u.s. as the isf is in, some way or another? >> the only leverage the u.s. is a strong relationship with the government in baghdad and that is longstanding and it's deep and it's trusting. the challenge that we have right now is that a u.s. forces are
4:12 am
not involved in the fight on the ground. we know that. but in order to separate iraqi forces from advisers and support coming from iran is only going take place if the iraqi forces want that to happen. right now, they have demonstrated they need the help. they turn around. guess what? the shii extremists are there and quds force is there and providing assistance in different forms. the united states presence is not there to separate that. until we convince them in some way it's in their best interest not to embrace tehran it's going to continue to happen. that is the larger issue. clearly the larger issue is iranian influence in iraq and it's expansive nature. >> we will continue to discuss this throughout the morning. major marks, thank you so much. >> thanks, victor. appreciate it. the crisis in yemen claims a u.s. citizen. his cousin told kpix that he left for yemen two months ago to
4:13 am
see his 2 and a half-year-old daughter and wife who is pregnant. end he wanted to bring them back home to california. >> every time they remember, they name, they describe. he was pretty word for the past three weeks and really upsetting and really sad. i touched other families like here. they have some american relatives back in yemen and they don't know what to do. >> according to the red cross, more than 500 people have been killed in the latest conflict. the closing arguments begin tomorrow in the marathon bomb in boston. a finger is pointed to boston cops for putting the public and other officers in danger. massive crowds gather for easter mass at the vatican, but the pope's message was not your typical message. he had a message to the world about terrorism.

if they're not a cfp pro, you just don't know. cfp -- work with the highest standard. a call to action and a prayer for peace. pope francis addressed the faithful this morning and took on the persecution of christians around the world citing conflicts in syria, iraq and last week's attack on a university in kenya. senior international correspondent ben wedeman is live in vatican city with the details. ben, tell us what the pope had to say. >> reporter: the pope really went through a long list of conflicts, just to name a few, syria, iraq, the holy land, libya, yemen, nigeria, sudan and the congo and ukraine. many of those conflicts where christians are being killed, are
4:18 am
being driven from their homes. he is particularly concerned about the situation in iraq and in syria where we see that isis is driving christians from villages, areas where they have lived for centuries and centuries, going back almost to the first century after the death of christ. so certainly this is one of his main concerns. he did, however, seem to be praising the framework agreement worked out between the united states, its allies and iraq on the nuclear issue, but definitely the worrying situation around the world not only for christians, but for everybody is occupying the pontiff's mind as he celebrates this, his third easter as pope. alison? >> as many people there brave the rain, that laundry list of countries, ben, that he gave really make you realize just how much conflict and violence there in the world and hopefully that
4:19 am
list will be shorter next year. ben wedeman live from vatican city, thanks. let's talk about the pope's message this morning and bring in host of the sunday mass, father edward beck. father, good to have you. >> thanks. happy easter. >> to you too. the hope delivered a mostly somber, but very strong message today. let's listen to a bit of it. >> translator: among the various groups which make up those beloved countries. may the international community not stand by before the immense humanitarian tragedy unfolding in these countries. and the drama of the numerous
4:20 am
refugees. >> he went through various countries. a message of so many political arenas around the world. does this separate the pope from other popes of recent history, or is this something that would be expected? >> well, victor, it's expected in a message like this to be praying for world peace. unfortunately, we find ourselves not at peace in so many areas, that the list seems particularly long. but i think, again, put it in the context of what christians are celebrating right now. we have just gone through what is called the three days so good friday is about suffering. it is about somehow finding meaning and suffering and moves us today to easter. so i think the easter message of the pope is that even though we are living in this violent world, the prayers for peace
4:21 am
continue. the fact is christian celebrates that jesus rode from the dead today and was over injustice and over death. the pope is really putting it in the context of we can have hope in this, but he is challenging the world community that we have to work together for that. it's not going to happen unless we band together as an international community to help make it happen. >> i wonder what you took away pope's words about the deal reached with framework with iran and he said may many being a define testify step for a more fraternal world. those words stuck out to me. >> the pope is as concerned about everybody else about this deal and hoping that it can be a lasting and true one. again, we know the prime minister of israeli was critical of it. our president in the united states is supportive of it. so the pope is trying to say, look, we have to give it a chance to see if it works and bring this lasting peace he is praying for all of the world.
4:22 am
iran is included in that. it's still somewhat of a tinder box in that we don't know what the future will be there. he is including it in its message. he went on -- many, many things he prayed about in this easter message. he even prayed for the victim of drug dealers. so, i mean, he is bringing in everybody who is hurting, who is suffering the passion today and saying, don't lose hope. today is about resurrection and new life. let's give it a chance. >> traffickers and abusers and many prayers for peace arnold the world. father edward beck, thank you so much and happy easter again. >> thank you, victor. happy easter. the final four is now the final two. the showdown for the national title is set and some kentucky fans not too happy about it. hundreds of wildcats fans take to the streets, fired up over the loss of their perfect season. what will it take to convince israeli's prime minister to back the iran nukes deal? a surprising answer from one of the obama administration's top advisers. brand new audi. it's like a luxury car.

israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has come out in full force against a framework nuclear deal of the u.s. and iran and the nuclear powers saying it presents a grave danger. we will hear from him on "state of the union" at 9:00 a.m. eastern. let's go to our reporter live from jerusalem now. what are we likely to hear from the prime minister? a reinforcement of this message or maybe another angle here? >> reporter: i think we expect to hear a reinforcement of this message, as you said. i expect him to reiterate the message he is pushing the last
4:27 am
few weeks especially the last few days and what he has really been doing is strengthen his rhetoric. we have seen him use terms like horrific war and terrible war. he says this nuclear deal increases the risk of all that. i think has will be the message he is pushing today. he knew this week was a high profile opportunity to get his message out there because house speaker john boehner was here visiting israeli and benjamin netanyahu and earlier in the week mitch mcconnell. a high profile opportunity for anita to get his message out there. he has called this a bad dealing from the very beginning. he is strengthening his rhetoric the last several days. and perhaps more in the coming hours. he says not to limit iran's power but take apart their facilities. that's not in the deal and one of his biggest complaints about this deal. he also says the lifting of sanctions should be tied to iran pulling back on its aggression in the region. again, he says that is a big mistake not putting that in the deal. in his latest statement on friday afternoon before the
4:28 am
jewish holiday of passover in israeli, he says the deal needs to include iran's recognition of the state of israeli and iran recognizing the right of israeli to exist. he is not in on the negotiations so we will see where that leads. he knows he can't stop this deal. he knows he is not working that well and he doesn't have a particularly great relationship with president obama. so he is pushing where he does have friends, where he does have allies and that is with congressional republicans. that was house speaker boehner and senator mitchell mcconnell. i expect him to perhaps talk about that relationship and see him the next three months to use that relationship to, in any way, he can, influence this deal and make sure it limits iran and keeping in mind the security of israeli. we have seen him talk about this deal a lot the last week. i expect him now to try to keep that conversation going and try to keep his concerns in the spotlight. >> the conversation continues at 9:00 a.m. eastern right here on cnn's "state of the union."

walking down boyleston street. they split up. tamerlan to the finish line and dzhokhar in front of the restaurant. there is a phone call between the brothers and then the first explosion. inside marathon sports, shattered glass and shell-shocked victims. outside, video never seen before of the horror, the helplessness, and the heroes. the further down the street in front of the restaurant there is confusion and heads turned toward the finish line. dzhokhar gives a backward glance and leaves his backpack behind. 6-year-old jane richard loses her leg in the blast and her 8-year-old brother martin is hurt even worse. their father remembers it was the last time i saw my son alive, barely. linsy lu and campbell can't be saved. >> officer down. >> officer sean collier is killed.

police fire at least 210 shots. tamerlan dies after a suv runs over his body. then dzhokhar is caught. let's talk more about this and bring in cnn commentator and legal annist mel robins and with us is also with us is joey jackson. good to have you both with us. >> good morning, victor! >> joey, first to you. what do you expect to hear from the defense? what will they do or hope to do in these closing arguments? >> it was all about tamerlan. now remember this. the judge has severely limited, victor, the ability of the defense to do so much which is what they want to do. i think we will hear about it in the penalty phase. i'm presuming a guilty conviction. you know what? i think ultimately the defense makes that same presumption
4:37 am
because they are playing for the long run. remember what they did in their case. that is the defense. they put up exerts to talk about computer experts. the ring leader was tamerlan and experts to talk about the fingerprints, the bomb, the pressure cooker and fingerprints that were found and ultimately was his brother. i think you'll hear them setting up, that is the defense, the later argument which was the minimal role he was certainly just going along with the person who controlled this, who inspired this and who led the way and that was the real guilty person. he is dead. that's his brother. >> mel, let's talk about the state. while some may believe this is open and shut, you contend that there are some elements that the state has not proven beyond a reasonable doubt? >> yes, victor. you know, there are 30 counts and i suspect you will see a conviction on all 30 counts, however, there is very troubling questions that were never
4:38 am
answered. for example, there were four pipe bombs, two that went off at the boston marathon site and another one hurled at police and found a fourth during the manhunt that happened in watertown. those two bombs that they threw at the boston marathon, they had between 16 and 8 pounds of explosive powder here. the one they threw at the police had four pounds and the one they found at watertown had three pounds. they never proved where or actually how much they got that explosive powder. that is troubling. secondly, they also contended and admitted on the stand, victor, that tamerlan's apartment, while it was a mess, actually wasn't the site where they built the bombs. now will that be material in terms of whether or not they have a conviction on the 30 counts? probably not. i think we will see a conviction on all 30 but it's extremely troubling, if you ask me, that after all of this we still don't know for sure, beyond a
4:39 am
reasonable doubt, where they got that much explosive powder and actually where the bombs were built. >> mel expects a conviction on those 30 counts. joey, do you? >> i really do. i mean, ultimately, i don't think that that is really what we are all focused on and at the edge of our seats on, whether there will be a conviction on 30 counts. i think the real issue lies -- again, not that i'm a forecaster at all -- but when you are have the defense team even saying, my guy did it, you know, we can't talk about why but we will hear a lot who this person is and how he grew up and what he was all about in the neck phaxt phase o trial. i think the next issue is what are the aggravating factor that put out by the prosecution that warrant death and what are the mitigating factors that lessin' it to have the jury spare his life. that is the question -- will he live or will he die? >> are we expecting an even
4:40 am
penalty phase than what we saw in the trial? >> interesting question. . it was a 16-day progression by the witnesses with 95 witnesses. you will not see that kind of volume. what i expect we will see is experts about brain development. dzhokhar was 19 years old. you'll see people from his past and you'll see more experts talking about what his online activity looked like. this was a kid that was looking at facebook as much as -- more rather than he was doing anything radical online, that it was all his brother. i sit here and wonder how do you spare this guy's life unless he takes the stand? and then, at the same time, you never put your client on the stand and subject them to the vicious cross in a case like this by a federal prosecutor that would love to tear this guy apart on the stand and reveal how radical he is. so, you know, it's really a big guessing game at this point what they are going to do. how you overcome the photographs of the three bodies that were torn apart by these bombs that
4:41 am
made jurors weep, that is a really, real tough road to hoe, victor. >> especially people who had some reaction to that story just presented by alexandria field. >> ahead at 8:00 the identity of a shooter in the massacre in somalia university. fans of the kentucky wildcats taking their frustration to the streets. new overnight video next. ch
