2:00 am
a show of military might in moscow. 70 years after nazi is germany was defeated. north korea tests a ballistic missile under water. we'll be live in seoul. and a doctor in the united states who thought he was cleared of ebola relapses. from the cnn headquarters in atlanta, i'm george howell. this is "cnn newsroom." welcome to our viewers in the united states and around the world. we start this hour in moscow which has just finished hosting a huge military parade celebrating russia's victory
2:01 am
day. it commemorates the 70th anniversary. mr. putin invited nearly 70 world leaders to attend but fewer than 30 accepted. most declined over the conflict with ukraine. meanwhile, ukrainian president petro poroshenko just laid a wreath there. pro-russian rebels in donetsk was there also. matthew chance is there. matthew, tell us what the mood there in moscow. >> reporter: it was a very forward procession, very solemn as well. it's one of the biggest victory parades to mark the victory day in some time. 15,000 troops, 200 military
2:02 am
vehicles including some of moscow's vast military technology. it was a pretty impressive air show as well. pretty big military play, new military being unveiled there for the first time. but what we didn't see any, of course, any western leaders is because of the alleged support of pro-russian rebels in the western and eastern part of that country seeming inappropriate to send their heads of states or leaders to this event. that wasn't the point of view taken by one of the country, notably, the chinese president was there. so was the president of india. so a lot of countries taking an opposing point of view to that. it was quite interesting to see how symbolic this was. especially symbolic of the alliance of nazi germany in 1945. but it also looked symbolic of
2:03 am
the gap that exists between russia and the west. >> and, matthew, also understanding the history of this, we're talking about the fact that there are still remains being found to this day of the millions of soldiers who died in this conflict. tell us about that. >> reporter: yes, and it the defense ministry says there's something in the region of 4 million military soldiers indicated as missing in action. i was with a volunteer group last week near st. petersburg, north of moscow, sort of looking around one former battlefield and picking through the muddy forest there to see what remains they could find. >> reporter: volunteers searching the forests and sights in st. petersburg, where some of the bloodiest battles of the 20th century took place. where the earth is littered with russia's wartime past.
2:04 am
[ speaking in foreign language ] >> reporter: soviet troops battled here to break the nazi siege of what was lenden grad, victory came but at enormous cost. tens of thousands of soldiers lost their lives in this area along. many russians including 22-year-old volunteer daria, it feels like a personal loss, even 70 years old. so your grandfather died in this area? >> yes, yes. and had his belongings were found during the search and expedition in 2013 here. that's why -- >> reporter: and that was good, was it, a good feeling when your grandfather's remains were brought back? >> yes. it was the beginning for me. >> reporter: work to recover the
2:05 am
countless other grandfathers who were simply left where they fell, sometimes covered by just a thin layer of sod. [ speaking foreign language ] >> reporter: it's incredible. a boot was just dug out. i mean, it's astonishing the amount of debris from the the second world war, even 70 years on, that's being dug up by these purely volunteers in a forest outside of st. petersburg. obviously, not just art fa taif like this boot but also human remains. and it's a real challenge for these people to dig out the tens of thousands of soldiers that died here in battles and give them proper burials. already, this group has pieced together an entire skeleton. dozens more have been identified and their families informed.
2:06 am
this should be the work of a search program say the volunteers. >> translator: it's important because these people fought for their motherland. they died for her. but they were forgotten about and died in the forest. for years no one cared about them. >> reporter: we've had no official response for the questions as to why so many remains have yet to be uncovered. but as this country prepares to mark the 70th anniversary of its wartime victory, there are growing calls to bring this long overdue search to an end. >> that story illustrating, i think, george, just how vivid the second world war still is for many millions and millions of russians all over the country and the world. we're watching this parade today. indeed, it's why so many russians we've spoken to are quite offended, very offended the fact that western leaders have for the most part snubbed
2:07 am
this victory day parade. >> it is a source as you indicate there, a source of pride for muscovites and russians alike. but certainly a show of force and rest of the world at the time when there say disconnect between russia and the west. matthew chance, live in moscow. thank you so much for your reporting. in the united states, more than two dozen world war ii fighters and bomber planes flew over washington, d.c. on friday to mark the anniversary of the end of the war. hundreds of veterans were there to watch. the spectacle was so big it forced washington's reagan national airport to shut down for an entire hour. cnn gopro footage from onboard one of the planes gives a bird's-eye view of the action. the planes will be on display at the national air and space museum. north korea's leader kim jong-un is praising the test
2:08 am
firing. we're getting these images from state-run tv apparently showing kim jong-un overseeing that launch. but details of when or exactly where the missile test happened are unclear at this point. for more on this sorry, let's turn to cnn's kathy novak live from seoul, kathy, good morning to you. we see the success from this firing, kim jong-un calling it a success. what does it mean and what message is being sent to the rest of the world? >> reporter: well, george, the message of kim jong-un is this display being celebrated in state media and newspaper and as you say on state-run television. reportedly showing kim jong-un watching over this successful, they say, submarine missile from the water into the sky. we know this is something that the north koreans have been trying to develop for quite some time. but, of course, all we have so far to go on are these photos.
2:09 am
we cannot dentally verify their authenticity. we did reach out to the south korean government, no comment from them just yet. this would represent quite a concern for other countries and out there the region. they're proven to be authentic, because it does represent an extension of north korea's capabilities. the ability to develop these kind of missiles that are more difficult to detect. that are more difficult to intercept. and i'm told that it would be a sign that they are developing this sooner than expected. there have been some thought that it might take some time, some years even for north korea to have this kind of military capability. but if these pictures as we say are authentic, it seems to show that they're able to develop it much sooner. >> and certainly sending a message to countries like south korea, japan and the united states. but speaking specifically about south korea, are there any efforts to authenticate, to
2:10 am
determine where and when this happened, and if it happened? >> you would expect so, george. as i said, there's no official comment from the south korean government right now. but the north korean rhetoric repeatedly refers to its hostile enemies. it's talking about these photos and the successful launch, it says, as a time bomb that could go off on the back of its hostile enemies at anytime there. a reference there to the united states. as you said, south korea, a country with north korea that remains technically at war, yes, it would be doing what what can to determine whether or not this launch was authenticity. now on to australia, authorities have charged a 17-year-old with terrorism. officials said the un70 fied teen was charged with a terror attack. he was charged after police
2:11 am
searched his home in melbourne. and in the united states the fbi has increased its monitoring of suspected isis supporters in this country. this stepped-up effort in the wake of an attack by two isis sympathizers. that attack which happened last week in garland, texas, is also the reason all u.s. military bases are stepping up their security levels. cnn's jim sciutto has this story. >> reporter: the u.s. military is raising the security level at every base across the country. as concerns grow over the threat from isis. it was a shooting in texas on sunday that prompted the increased security measures. but the military says the step is not tied to a specific credible threat, saying we have the the same concern about the potential threat posed by violent homegrown extremists. the security level has now increased to brav voshgs a ranking signifying an increased and predictable threat of
2:12 am
terrorism. u.s. bases have generally not been at this level since the 10th anniversary of 9/11. >> not only do you have access to those bases you have to ramp up security on the bases itself. this is a big operation of all the services. >> reporter: the texas shooting is highlighting the threat of isis supporters hiding within the united states. >> groups like isil or al qaeda now are calling publicly for attacks in the west. out-people who they have never recruited specifically, they've never even trained, they've never even met, someone could decide on their own whether to answer that call with little or no notice. >> reporter: u.s. authorities are investigating hundreds of people in the u.s. who have some social media link to isis, a severe challenge to keep tabs on. >> it really is an expansion of how the internet has been used frankly for several years now
2:13 am
both in the radicalization of young people to join military groups. >> reporter: u.s. military over a hand full of times in the last decade, twice in 2003, again after the bin laden rate. and on the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. in all cases civilian levels were put at a higher threat rate. in military installations around the country. the military concerns in isis, the military taking this very seriously. jim sciutto, cnn, washington. an american doctor who was declared ebola-free after contracting the virus still had the disease in his eye. we'll have that story next. plus, a rare look inside north korea's schools where children are taught a twisted version of history. and loyalty to their leader comes above everything else. a g. and aveeno®.

2:17 am
hours at a time trying to get to boarding nations like rwanda. >> many people we've spoken to have experienced difficulties while trying to leave burundi. several women have reported rape. unhcr is appealing to organizations within burundi to move freely. it's vital that borders remain open. >> the u.n. agency made an appeal to allow borders over and to allow people to move freely but space has become an issue there. >> so space san issue, and our services, though we have services in place they're busting at the rims due to the number here. >> the controversialal election is expected to take place june 26th. >> the uproar of allegation of

child sex abuse has grown stronger. the united nations is following an investigation as to why they. the soldiers are accused of forcing homeless children to perform sex acts on them 2013 and 2014. recently the french president promised very strong action against the soldiers if the allegations are proven to be true. we are expecting a major announcement out of liberia today that the country is officially ebola-free. but one american doctor wants to remind their fellow survivors that their struggles aren't over. the doctor was declared free of the virus but he recently found out he still has the disease in his eye. >> as the disease progressed, i began to have problems with my visual acute. so that's how we measure how well i'm seeing. as my sight started to go bad, it became clear that this was a
2:19 am
very different animal and aggressive and whatever had been unleashed in my eye was not going away quickly. and one morning as this progress evolved, i woke up and realized that my blue eye had turned bright green. and this was a surprise. immediately a concern that i had been or i was at risk of transmitting to family members or to friends. so it's very important to point out, as we talk about this shocking finding that my tear fluid and the consunny tiev virginia was at risk. >> his eye gradually returned to normal, although they're not sure whether that's because of the drugs or because of his body's immune situation.

doctorsing say patients should be monitored for pain, redless, light sensitivity and blurred vision. one day of looting in baltimore is having a long-lasting effect on the residents that live there. it's harder for them to get the necessary medications that they need. after more than a dozen baltimore pharmacies were cleaned out or burn to the ground. cnn sarah sidon reports how those who need the pharmacies are trying to cope with it. dr. jeffrey katz patients are in a watered side of baltimore where crumbling buildings and crime are more the norm than the exception. but katz doesn't make his patients come to him. instead, he goes to them, making daily house calls. why do you do this, why do you come out to this neighborhood. it's not an easy thing to do. >> it's certainly for me. personal things in my life, with medical commitments, growing up in families, personal tragedy, anybody i'm sick who i'm
2:21 am
connected to. >> reporter: first saw, brandyn thompson, a paraplegic in pain. thomas is on several medications and needs a variety of medical supplies. suddenly, he has to worry about where he's going to get what he needs. >> it's pretty hard. >> reporter: why? because of this. the riot after the death of freddie gray while he was in police custody. one by one, looters picked off pharmacies. at least a dozen were ransacked, looted or burned. >> they hurt their own neighborhood, and that's the hard part about it, because in the area around here, we're a close-knit neighborhood, we help one another but we can't even help each other. no supermarket, no medicine. even the corner store that was tour up. >> reporter: bella now has to take the bus to find the medication she need. >> we really depended on it. >> reporter: how would you describe what that did to this
2:22 am
neighborhood? are we talking a medical crisis here? >> well, we created panic in the operators. they all have my cell phone number. i got a lot of calls about what am i going to do, where am i going to go? help me. i think crisis it probably did in the sense it reduced the success for medications to stabilize their health. >> reporter: so katz has been scrambling to find way to get the right meds to his sickest patients. >> we would die if dr. katz didn't come here. i don't know what we'd do. >> reporter: her son is surviving from a gunshot. without dr. katz makes house calls, jesse said his life would be in constant turmoil. >> this man actually saved my life. >> reporter: when he first met dr. katz, jesse said he cussed him out which almost cost him his life.
2:23 am
but katz wouldn't leave until jesse went. since then, katz and jesse are close. between medical questions there are now football snack talk. >> you know, i can't remember his name, i think it was a fourth round. >> yeah, i trust this man, he's a is very good doctor. a friend, i love him. i'm saying the man saved my life. >> reporter: but on baltimore's west side, even with katz's house calls, life is harder, after a day of uncontrolled rage, the sick are left with even fewer options. we know that some of the pharmacies say they are going to come back. they're trying to rebuild. in the meantime, dr. katz and the patients are doing whatever they can to try to make sure that their health is taken care of. sara sidner, cnn, baltimore. turning now to weather. another day of severe weather around parts of the central united states. our meteorologist derek van dam

welcome back to our viewers in the united states and around the world, i'm george howell. this is "cnn newsroom." the headlines this hour, it is victory day in russia, the country celebrating with a huge military parade through the streets of moscow. the reception started about 30 minutes ago in the kremlin and an eternal march is expected in a few hours' time. it's all to commemorate the soviet's defeat over nazi germany during world war ii. north korean leader kim jong-un is praising the test fire of a new missile. it's the personal initiative of the supreme leader. details about when or exactly where this launch occurred are unclear at this point. u.s. military bases are stepping up their security levels because of a, quote, increased and predictable threat of terrorism. this comes after an isis sympathizer tweeted the name and

2:32 am
the s anp decimated. >> reporter: it all went one way. all for the scottish national party. the vote count formalized the rampage through lands that left one man standing in an empty room. the labour. >> it was to retain my seat is and be elected. it's been devastating. but one which we'll have to reflect on. >> reporter: in a few hours later we found only a little sympathy.
2:33 am
just giving the rich history of scotland. >> well, sadness in ways. >> reporter: the drinkers here said this part became snp territory long ago. you've broken up and has scotland changed? >> scotland changed about 2010, 2011 for me. the labour party didn't see it. >> reporter: to the party's favorite it's the best possible result after losing last year's independence. >> by that time, snp to westminster is saying we define ourselves. >> reporter: and they expect new representatives to be a rowdy force in the parliamentary table. >> the scottish line has ruled. >> reporter: and will continue to do so? >> yes. >> reporter: the system here means snp was able to claim almost every scottish seat by twins just 50% of the vote across scotland. the other 50% are left feeling
2:34 am
uneasy. are you optimistic about the future of scotland? >> a bit cautious and apprehensive. i think if they do get strong votes there in england, but once again that could actually cause more divisions. >> reporter: scots don't do euphoria, they know the country's political direction has been died but its future, its prosperity or role within the united kingdom are far from secure. the stock markets in the uk leapt up on the news of david cameron's election. london's ftse jumped more than 2%. the stocks led the day with strongest gains. french, german and situation marketsal rallied to close with gains above 2%.
2:35 am
the pound sterling also a boost with news of the victory. and on its overnight peak the pound reached a high of $1.55. the fight over austerity and mr. cameron wants a balanced budget without new taxes. in the couldland, the snp land put it back on the table. snp is also deeply opposed to issues of austerity. and most significant of all, the referendum on britain's future in the e.u. looks inevitable. you might remember prime minister david cameron promised to renegotiate the position with the e. u. . let's bring in cnn political distributor robin oakley for some analysis. robin, good day to you. so that referendum vote, it is slated for no earlier than 2017,
2:36 am
but could it come earlier? >> i don't think it will come earlier, george, because there have got to be negotiations with 27 countries within europe and the president about the changes that they'd like to see in the european union before he makes his recommendation to the british people about whether they should vote in or out. i don't think we'll see that referendum before the end of 2017 for when it's promised but, of course, if britain should vote to come out of the european union in that referendum, we're also likely to see another referendum on the future of scotland in the united kingdom. because the scots are very keen on their membership in the european union. if the rest were to come out they would most certainly demand a referendum so that they could vote to stay in the european union. that's just one of the many
2:37 am
problems facing david cameron with this new phenomenon of 56 scottish nationalists at westminster. in that interesting report from phil black there, somebody saying it was good for scotland to have a good strong voice the at westminster now. but the scots could get frustrated. they feel they've got a strong vote in westminster now but the arithmetic isn't going to let that voice be heard as strongly. >> so you're seeing that e.u. referendum will likely happen before the scottish decision on independence. but it's a balancing act, it seems, robin. i mean, you've got part of the country that supports austerity. and the more liberal bloc that meals more snp. how does the prime minister unite this country that seems so divided politically? >> yes, david cameron's got a huge job of balances this things
2:38 am
to the scots. these promised a divulged government anywhere in the world. and he's aware that he's been accused of actually dwighting the country and togethering up english nationalism during the campaign. one reason he and the conservatives did so well, david cameron said a government held up. with scottish nationalist m.p.s. and the rest of the country grew nervous about that. this division about a left-leaning scotland that's voting against austerity, and the rest of the country which seems to be backing the conservatives in their efforts to bring down the deficit, it creates big problems for the opposition labour party as well. they're now 99 seats behind the conservatives. probably take them two parliaments to recover. but what kind of a labour party is it going to be? part is saying look how well snp
2:39 am
has done in scotland being a part of the labour party. others are saying if you do that in england, that's going to lose the labour party even more seats in england. and if they want to appeal to the english voters it seems they have to go back to the centrist party that they were. >> talking about that election, during that election, they downplayed the position about scottish independence. do you think that could come soon. and how quickly do you think that would happen? >> well, it all depends on their experience at westminster and how well david cameron does bridge the gap but the very charismatic leader of the scottish nationalists, it was
2:40 am
not an appeal at the general th were not offering a referendum then, she said. after the referendum last year 55-45 against scotland leaving the union, she said that effectively settled it for a generation. but it can change that kind of pronouncement. but it's the experience of scottish nationalists at westminster, how serious david cameron is in trying to rebuild some sense of union that will determine how the pressures go. but certainly, as i say, if britain were ever to vote to come out of the european union, i'm convinced we would see another referendum on scottish independence there, george. >> a big vote and a lot of delicacies on this, robin thank you so much. cnn has gained rare access to the north korean capital pyongyang, a place notorious surrounding its supreme leader kim jong-un. citizens are taught from a young age to love and revere him.
2:41 am
here now cnn's correspondent will ripley with an unsettling look inside north korean schools. >> reporter: the north korean education system is designed to turn out disciplined, heavy focus on a group of individual and above all else, devotion to their supreme leader. if they didn't look so young, you might not believe they're first graders. by the time they reach elementary school, pyongyang students have technically learned their country's most sacred lesson. shedding the individualism of youth to the collectiveness of north korean society. what do you want to be when you grow up? i'd like to be a journalist she said so i can spread the greatness of kim jong-un out there the world. you'll find the same photos of the late leaders in every classroom and every home.

science and technology. north korea strives to be strong and modern but only a rare few can access the internet. have you ever been on facebook? >> facebook? >> reporter: never heard of facebook? for all the discipline, there are brief moments when kids can act like kids. at least until it's time to go back to class. north korean students are now required to finish the 12th grade and all are eligible to apply for university although the entrance exams are highly competitive. north korea teaches its own history of current affairs. it's one of the reasons why access to the outside world is so tightly controlled. will ripley, cnn, pyongyang, north korea. football legend pele is currently recovering after major surgery this week. we'll have an update on the world cup champion as the news continues here on cnn u.s. and cnn international. my advice for healthy looking radiant skin. a good night's sleep... and aveeno®.
