will find something uniquely human and they will tie him to that victim. >> mr. otto thought he was going to outsmart us, and he was pretty sure of it. and he was going to do anything he could to try to outsmart us, but it didn't work. rebels in yemen claim they shot down a saudi fighter jet. >> i find the defendant not guilty on count one and two. the state did -- >> that's the word in the state of ohio. a police officer is acquitted in the death of unarmed couples. dozens of activists march for peace. from cnn world headquarters in atlanta, i'm george howell. this is cnn news room. welcome to our viewers in the united states and around the world. we start this hour with the
2:01 am
situation in yemen. no word, yet, from saudi arabia regarting the fate of a warplane. houthi rebels -- the ones seen here posted online. saudi arabia has been leading air strikes against rebels closely in line with the saudi arch enemy in iran. let's go to ian lee live in cairo with the latest. good day to you. we have seen these images. what can you tell us about these claims? >> reporter: good morning, george. as you and i have been talking this morning, the first reports were this was a saudi f-16. we know that saudi arabia does not fly f-16s. we are hearing now from houthi
2:02 am
officials that it was an f-15. that is a plane the saudi's do fly. we cannot ind pendantly verify. we have seen pictures. we cannot verify that. the saudi arabia military is not commenting on it right now. looking at the pictures being released, you can see on a piece of metal, it says it saudi arabia air force. there are also missiles from that. if they did shoot down an airplane, the question then goes to the fate of the pilot. what happened to them if this plane was shot down? the reason we may not be hearing from saudi arabia, they may be looking for their pilot. george? >> at the same time, as the fighting continues, there is dramatic, humanitarian situation for many people there. hard time to get water.
2:03 am
difficult to get food. any efforts to establish another cease-fire? >> reporter: that's right. in the best of time, water is scarce in yemen. they are in poverty. compound that with a war and the situation is more dire. the united nations is saying over 1,000 civilians have been killed, hundreds of children in that. they are pushing for another cease-fire. we had one in the middle of this month, one where they said they were able to provide some of the thing that is are necessary for the civilians, including food, water, medical care. what they are pushing for is a more sustained, longer term cease-fire. there's a conference they are hoping to hold at the end of the month. that is going to be difficult to get both sides come together. we saw at the end of the last cease-fire, they were unable to get an agreement there. the u.n. is hoping to get
2:04 am
another one. george? >> another question, we are talking the idea of a cease-fire and the people on the ground that need help. there are many medics who need to get to people who have been cut off by the fighting. how are efforts going to make sure the medics can get around and do the work they need to do? >> reporter: that has always been a challenge in conflict zone. according to international law, medics, noncombatants shouldn't be targeted. sometimes you see ambulances and medics targeted. that's also to say that ambulances have been violated, too, where you see combatants using them to screen themselves moving around a battlefield. the rights organizes, including the red cross have condemned that. they say medics are noncombatants and should be left alone and treat the wounded.
2:05 am
there's also a shortage of medical supplies, which they are hoping to get more in there. it does, very much, show how dire the situation is. >> cnn correspondent, ian lee in cairo. thank you. now, on to iraq, an alliance, they have launched counter attacks near ramadi. they hope to push it near the capitol city of baghdad. isis took partial control of it on friday. arwa damon has more from the iraq capitol. >> reporter: according to several security forces, a force made up of conventional army units, as well as an army unit,
2:06 am
has prevented isis from reaching and gaining more territory in anwr province. now, this force does require additional support if they are going to continue to attempt to push isis back towards its stronghold in ramadi. at this stage, the iraqi government has no choice but to use these unconventional forces at disposal. what is painfully clear is the iraqi security forces are not capable of taking on isis at this stage. this is over the fall of ramadi and forced the u.s. to reassess its strategy when it comes to iraq. the government is finding itself
2:07 am
in a very complicated situation when it comes to taking on isis, having to navigate the various, different dynamics and tensions that exist on the ground here and the broader political arena. at this stage, this country cannot afford to see more fall to isis. if it does, the terrorist organization will potentially pose a real threat to the capitol. arwa damon, cnn. in the united states, the state of ohio arrested at least three people during protests saturday night. [ bleep ] [ bleep ]. >> the demonstrations were sp k sparked by the acquittal of a white police officer in the shooting of two african-americans. >> in many american places, people are angered with,
2:08 am
mistrusting and fearful of the police. citizens think the men and women sworn to protect and serve have violated the oath or never meant it in the first place. some of these places are long familiar, new york city, baltimore. some were unfamiliar until incidents there laid the divide between the people and the police. ferguson, missouri, north charleston, south carolina. >> cnn has more on the reaction to that verdict. >> my baby cousin. we have no justice. >> i know those officers were upset, adrenaline was flowing. by the time they reached them in that parking lot, they simply let them have it. >> reporter: the family of tim
2:09 am
think russell and melissa williams are outraged. officers opened fire on their car. >> i find the defendant not guilty of counts one and two as indicted. >> in tears as he delivered his verdict, not guilty on all accounts. it began with williams car backfired. a sound that was confused with gunshots. it was a chase up to 100 miles per hour. when the chase ended, about 12 officers fired 137 shots at williams car. was the other officer's stopped shooting, this officer jumped on the hood of his car and fired 15 more shots directly into the windshield. he and his partner felt threatened at the time. neither russel nor williams had
2:10 am
a weapon. >> he risked his life on that night. >> reporter: as protesters take to the street, the mayor of cleveland is asking for peace. >> questions on the line whether police officers and citizens cannot and will not be tolerated. >> reporter: now that the case is over, disciplinary hearings will begin for the 14 officers involved. >> for more on the story, i'm joined by cedric alexander. we appreciate your time being with us. >> good morning. >> in light of this verdict, how do you bridge the gap between the distrust that many people have for law enforcement? >> there's been long standing mistrust between the community and cleveland police, as we understand. in light of the verdict yesterday, due process has taken place. we have to respect that. the process has taken place here, george. going forward, one thing that
2:11 am
community is going to have to do, that police department, leadership in the city is going to have to develop a relationship that's not been there in the past. you have to reach out and contact those community leaders. the police department has began to do that. much of the clergy in the community. but the relationship has to start before there's an issue in any community. those bridges have to be built long before them. i think, historically, that has not been the case there in cleveland, but going forward, and hope we are going to see the bridges begin to build, that community, that police department. it's going to take time. it does not occur overnight. but, in the long run, i think you will see them begin to work together. >> when you think about the facts of this case, we are talking officers that fired 137 shots at a car. we are talking an officer who
2:12 am
fired 15 shots into a windshield. were you surprised by this verdict? >> i think any of us are certainly surprised by the fact of that number of shots being fired. how do you explain that to a community that looked to their police department to protect them? no, it's hard to explain. the verdict is what the verdict is. the evidence is what it is. the judge made a decision, whether we agree with it or not, we have to move forward and consider the fact that in the future, any type of event that occurs between police and community, which is at question to create pause. a better position to engage those issues. something else that is important is that cleveland's history, particularly having oversight in the justice department coming in, looking at them, i think is very important to consider the fact, they need to consider the fact that training may be a very
2:13 am
central part in terms of that department moving forward. >> i want to talk about that. when it comes to community policing, many in the community say, hey, that doesn't happen. what can the cleveland department do? >> you have to explain to the community and the department and the officers, what is community policing? community policing, george, is this. it's building relationship with me as a law enforcement person, you as a citizen in that community, in that precinct, in that neighborhood. we have to work together to reduce crime and to establish relationship in which, regardless of what happened in that neighborhood, we work as a team. we have relationships when it comes to building those relationships with young people who reside in the communities, with elderly people, people who walk up and down the streets. if i'm a law enforcement official, i have the
2:14 am
responsibility to get to no people, walk those streets and the neighborhoods and become part of that community during my shift. it's also important that community connect and reach back out to police departments to have that partnership. that's how you do it, one call at a time, one individual at a time, one neighborhood at a time, building those relationships. this is not some pie in the sky relationship, this is very realistic. it requires, from all of us, george, to open our hearts up and realize we are here to protect and serve, yes, but we are also here to establish relationships and for community to do like wise with us. >> when i worked in chicago, they have an issue when it comes to shootings on the south side. i remember them saying community policing was key in their strategy to help overcome the problems. we appreciate your time. >> thank you for having me. >> yes, thank you.
2:15 am
today is international women's day for peace and disarmorment. a group of women activists headed by american feminist gloria stineman has been marching the borders. they are calling for peace between north and south korea once and for all. >> it is such an e nor maus accomplishment. we started from our homes, not sure what would happen. we all paid our own tickets. we had a dream because of christine, our main organizers and heart and soul of all of this. there was so much mystery. we didn't know what would happen. but, in fact, we constantly didn't know. we didn't know whether just today we would be able to cross the dnc and where we would be able to cross. it happened. it happened. >> the women are also responding to critics who say the event is
2:16 am
being used as a propaganda tool by pyongyang. >> i think our posts are always taken out of context and used for multiple political agendas. our goal is to make human contact, to breakthrough the isolation and barrier that is existed for 70 years. it is enough. we crossed that boundary and hope to continue. we hope women in north and south korea continue to cross that boundary. we have to. that's the only way peace will be achieved. >> that was cathy novak conducting the interviews there. she files this report. >> reporter: they wanted to cross the border at a very symbolic place. it would have been an extraordinary event because if a regular person tried to cross that border without permission,
2:17 am
they would be shot. without permission from the relative authorities, these women came across the border by bus near the industrial complex. they say it is a mystery and they are doing something ordinary koreans cannot do, cross the border. they say it's a victory to get north and south to agree on anything at all. critics of the march say they are not pointing to human rights abuses. the u.n. tells us systematically happened in north korea. they did talk about human rights, but not pointing to the torture and murder and concentration camps. critics say by not doing that, the women may have been doing more harm than good. kathy novak, cnn, south korea. the national weather service calls the flooding in texas an historic e investigate. coming up, an update on the
