this is "don lemon tonight" live in lviv, ukraine. air sirens sounding amid heavy fighting amid the outskirts of the capital. they have taken territory u under heavy russian shelling although the mayor says ukraine join forces control 80%. that is ukrainian forces score a big hit on destroying a russian ship docked in the harbor. president joe biden meeting today in brussels with his nato counterparts warning the u.s. will respond, if vladimir putin uses chemical weapons in ukraine and saying russia's bloody

invasion has only made the nato ally alliance stronger. >> the most important thing is for us to stay unified and the world continue to focus on what a brute this guy is and all the innocent people's lives are being lost and ruined and what is going on. >> so i want to bring in ben wedeman. thank you both for joining us. appreciate it. ben, i'll start with you. we're getting new video, one of the russian tanks ukrainian forces say they destroyed or seized during fighting east of kyiv today. what is the latest on their counter offensive, please? >> yeah, it seems to be going far better than anybody might have expected if you look back to the fact we're four weeks and one day into this war. now, we see for instance 35 miles east of kyiv that they

have made progress and they're really seeming to inflict significant damage on the hardware of the russian army and here, we hear from one ukrainian soldier who seems to be confident that things are going very well. >> translator: the operation was a complete success. we decisively repelled the enemy. according to preliminary data, there were about 200 russian troops. some of them are in the ground while others escaped. three tanks and nine bpm. there is one of them here, which is now ours. >> and other than in that area, it seems that the russian forces are at best starting to dig in, digging trenches. when you start digging defensive positions like that, clearly, you're not moving forward so it

does appear that at best in the kyiv area, the russian advance has come to a halt and is being pushed back and if you take into account, the fact that the russian forces by all accounts expected to at best encircle and possibly take kyiv they're bogged down and the lack of progress they've made is stunning, don? >> i want to bring this to you because we have this new video northwest of kyiv and the mayor says that tell cnn that 80% of the town is controlled by the ukrainian army. clearly, they are making gains but the video shows the cost of that. look at that. it's incredible. >> it is incredible because really, these street to street fights, this urban warfare causes this type of damage when you have ukrainian forces as motivated as they are to defend

their towns and a strategic aspect. these are areas outside of kyiv. the stra tegic target and goal f russians was to encircled the city of 3 million people. you don't acroccupy and hold th terrain easily. you encircle it, cut it off and hope for a surrenderer. not only is that not happening but ukrainian forces are pushing back and in some cases, we understand to some reports in some suburban areas, cutting off the russians from their own supply lines so they are doing a lot better than expected on the ground but as we've been did cus -- discussing for weeks now, they want for western countries to help them defend themselves in the skies and that is why they're saying if you're not going to give us a no fly zone, give us the weaponry to shoot them down at a high altitude.

>> ben had the sound biyte. amazing what they're able to do with the russians. >> absolutely. i know you'll speak with cedric lay -- cedric leighton is march r moral, you have a country willing to defend until the end, their land, their homes, their kids. you don't have that moral on the russian side. >> ben, this is what the city -- we'll put it up, of mariupol looks like now. a downed power line. bunt out cars. everything is completely destroyed. how much longer can this city stay in ukrainian hands? >> that's a good question, don. because let's not forget, this is a city far to the east. very near russian forces, the russian border, i mean. and logistically, it's difficult

for ukrainian forces to provide any sort of possibility of a counter offensive certainly to resupply mariupol, we've had hundreds of thousands of civilians leaving this city. that's a city before the war had a population of 450,000. now it's well below 100,000 and what we've seen is the russians are using what can only be described as medieval siege tactics. they've cut off the electricity. they cut off the water. it's very difficult to get anything in there and life is barely livable. and so we're talking about moral. moral only goes so far when you have few tens of thousands of people living in a city that is unlivable. eventually, it may not be able to hold out. this is a very difficult situation but this is the tactic that the russians seem to have

adopted in the absence of a clear cut lightning victory over ukrainian forces. they have resorted to a type of warfare that goes back more than 1,000 years. don? >> you're right. it hard to live in the city with no infrastructure, right? it's very, very, very tough. thank you. we appreciate it, ben. see you at the top of the hour. i want to turn to cnn's phil black for the latest on where this war stands one month after the russian invasion but i must warn you, some of what you're about to see is really disturbing. >> reporter: the russian military says it's in control of this port. that fiercely burning ship suggests otherwise. the landing vessel began exploding not long after sunrise. boats and warships can be seen scrambling to get away from the fire as debris folds in the water around them.

ukraine says it destroyed and the fire spread to a weapons. ukraine hasn't revealed what weapons it used to carry out the attack. t territory east, a local man inspect what is is left of his city. pointing out bodies what he sees them. while shells continue to form nearby. russia's military says all this is in their control now. ukraine says the fight isn't over. driving through mariupol is an apocalypse experience. bodies and debris lie on the road. someone is shooting. the driver slams his foot down to get away. city is dangerous, people in mariupol have no choice but to line up

outside for food. this video from kharkiv proves the risk. it's the panicked aftermath of a russian strike on a parking lot with people were also waiting for aid. the region's governor says six people were killed. and this tour is through what remains in the country's north. the city's mayor is driving. he says complete carnage is unleashed here. civilians across ukraine's towns and cities are documenting their devastated communities because they want people everywhere to see and understand. phil black, cnn, lviv, ukraine. >> just unbelievable to see the rubble there. i want to bring in cnn military analyst and retired air force colonel cedric leighton. you can see this video. how do you live in a place if people come back with no

infrastructure? it's blown out and gone? >> absolutely, don. that's something as modern people who live in cities and live in urban areas is really hard for us to understand that all of that can go away and this is really proof of that. it's quite amazing, actually. >> we just had the video up of the sinking russian warship that's extraordinary and an attack -- it's an important russian asset that was attacked and destroyed. >> yeah, absolutely. in fact, let me show you a little bit about that. this is the type of warship that we're talking about here. this is an amphibious warship, the alligator class. the actual name of the ship is the orsk. the same types of ships are the ones we talked about awhile back that went between the islands and you can see they've got about 15 trucks on each of these ships right here and when you

play the video, it's very interesting to see something. here you see the actual destruction of it here. take a look at the other ships coming through here. this one here is also on fire. so you've got two ships that have been hit, one completely damaged but another one clearly still can get underway but that is one of the things that is really key to this kind of situation when you've got either sabotage or missile strike or something like that. my suspicion is it might be sabotage but that was an amazing effort by the ukrainians to sink one of those ships and that has significant impact on russia's resupply efforts in this area and in fact, when you go here to the southern part of ukraine, where that happened is right here, right next to mariupol and we of course saw the city, you

know, as the mayor took us through the town there with the destruction where the orsk was sunk was here so that is a major effort and could very well h difficulties for the russians as we try to make the famous land bridge. >> fascinating. remember in the beginning, we were talking strategy and i mean, pretty much ukrainians have held off a lot of the things that you've talked about. you said, you know, you would show us on the map this is what russians do and get this area and gain the stronghold. here we are a month later colonel and we haven't made much progress. astounding. let talk about the ukrainians, what they say they need from the u.s. 500 stinger missiles. 500 javelins per day. but do you think that's what is needed and can the u.s. and our alliesyies effectively keep tha

supply up? >> that's part of what is needed. taking a look at the stinger quickly. this is the man portable air defense system. this is what you want if you want to shoot down low flying aircraft. when you look at the javelin, this is what you want to get after if you go after tanks and that and similar missiles from other nato countries, they can be really, really important but it's not the only thing that ukraine needs. ukraine needs not only these kinds of missiles but they also need to make sure that their resupply lines are taken care of and quite frankly, after looking at and reviewing at the performance of the ukrainian air force, it might actually be the right thing to move aircraft into ukraine, of course, talking about it openly now but in the ideal world, you'd move these aircraft and let the ukrainians fly them to, you know, in effect, create their own air

space and their own ability to gain air superiority over their own country. >> interesting. nato is agreeing to place substantially more troops on the eastern flank including establishing four additional battle groups. where will these troops go and how do these deployments help secure nato? >> the additional troops will be slovakia, hunk gary, romania an bulgaria. that's where they will go in addition to poland and baltic states. so the idea is to create in essence an iron wall between nato and anything that the russians would try to gain because belarus is a russian ally. belarus may also be part of the war effort pretty soon depending whether the reports are true,

they could join up with e yan y -- russians and move into ukraine and that would be not necessarily a game changer. i don't think it would do that but at least add some stress to what the ukrainians are dealing with and that's something that, you know, we of course would want to avoid if you look at it from the ukrainian point of view. also something they definitely want to prevent if at all possible. >> thank you, colonel, appreciate it. >> you bet, don. president volodymyr zelenskyy pleading for help from world leaders as his country suffers a brutal assault by a much larger neighbor. what is keeping him going? i'll talk a former advisor, next. >> translator: please, never genital us our army does not meet nato standards. we've shown what standards we can reach and how much we can give to the common security of europe and the world.

my mental health was much better. my mind was in a good place. but my body was telling a different story. i felt all people saw were my uncontrolled movements.

some mental health meds can cause tardive dyskinesia, or td, and it's unlikely to improve without treatment. ingrezza is a prescription medicine to treat adults with td movements in the face and body. it's the only treatment for td that's one pill, once-daily, with or without food. ingrezza 80 mg is proven to reduce td movements in 7 out of 10 people. people taking ingrezza can stay on their current dose of most mental health meds. don't take ingrezza if you're allergic to any of its ingredients. ingrezza may cause serious side effects, including sleepiness. don't drive, operate heavy machinery, or do other dangerous activities until you know how ingrezza affects you. other serious side effects include potential heart rhythm problems and abnormal movements. it's nice people focus more on me. ask your doctor about ingrezza, #1 prescribed for td. learn how you could pay as little as zero dollars at ingrezza.com. what if you could have the perspective to see more? at morgan stanley, a global collective of thought leaders offers investors a broader view. ♪

all right. take a look at your screen now. you're looking at images of kyiv, large buildings. look at that. completely destroyed. cars blown to pieces but ukrainian forces are fighting back, that as president biden meets with european allies for emergency summits on putin's war in ukraine. joining me from the ukrainian cap capital, the former advisor to ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy. we're so happy to have you back on. how are you doing?

safe? everything good? >> thank you for having me. we're safe. it's been a relatively quiet night so far. i don't want to jinx it. >> yeah, cnn seems to have been hearing air ride si raid sirens far, you're okay? >> that's queconsidered quiet b our standards. >> as we've discussed, president biden is in brussels for an emergency meeting with allies about putin's war in ukraine. he says weapons are flowing into your country and promising the u.s. will respond. it was a big show of force from the west but does it change anything for ukrainians fighting on the ground? >> well, look, when you're in the middle of a war, there is only so much attention you can pay to rhetoric. we're looking at actions and we're incredibly grateful for what has been done so far for ukraine but in this situation, we have a bad contagious disease is the question of whether you

want to give us vaccine, whether you want to give us painkillers to relief the similaymptoms or us the cure since this disease is contagious. at the moment, we're the painkiller stage. so our army at very high cost in whole russia back, we can't do that indefinitely plus, we have the economic and humanitarian toll building up, you know, the further down the road we go so now i think is the pivotal point for the west to decide where does this go long term? >> the ukrainian president, your president volodymyr zelenskyy had a message for nato leaders today. let's listen and then i'll get your response. >> translator: ukraine asked for planes so that we don't lose so many people and you have thousands of war planes but we haven't been given any. you have at least 20 thousand tanks. ukraine asked for 1%.

1% of all your tanks. >> so cnn is also learning that ukraine told the u.s. that it needs i think 500 anti-aircraft missiles, 500 an anti tank missiles a day to keep fighting. what happens if you don't get this equipment? >> nobody knows for sure. we're in day 30 of kyiv is going to fall in three days in the stage of this operation but look, let me explain one very important thing to you, actually two. first of all, it doesn't end in ukraine. i keep saying this. like with the economic side of this hybrid world war is already happening in the west. i mean, globalization the way we understood the way we used to it is over. russia destroyed it. just like our infrastructure in ukraine. so, you know, we can hold russia back but we kind of need help doing it and i think if we can't do that, you risk the spread of it to at least eastern europe

and war is a perfect lens to show you an undistorted picture of reality. at the moment, we're seeing everyone and everything for what and who they really are so zelenskyy, this comedian turns out to be a great war leader. we have ukrainian businessmen turning out to be great, you know, progressive businessmen. at the same time, you know, we have certain western leaders and businesses deliberating how to make money in russia during the war. how to make, you know, in a politically correct manner. i think the future is being shaped now and, you know, i just hope everyone ends up on the right side of history here. >> the president also says that ukraine will not pursue membership in nato if that will end the war. do you think that could make a difference in negotiations? >> well, to be honest, i keep saying we're doing polling and the first days of this war

ukrainian people were desperate to join nato. now, there is stage of disillusionment so there is no miraculous cure. bombs are still falling. kids are still dying. it's easy to explain to ukrainian people if neutrality stops the war, why it's important we do that. at the same time, look, if the open door becomes truly open at some point, you know, before this is over and that can stop, you know, the killing of our children, you know, we reconsider once again. >> here in lviv, i've seen the power of president zelenskyy, the power he commands. i was in a restaurant earlier in the week and everyone stood up, you know, and stopped what they were doing, stopped, eating, stopped drinking just to watch him. as this war heads into the second month, what is keeping your president going do you think? >> well, he's just like that.

look, everyone is amazed by president zelenskyy and the way he's acting and holding up especially for the american people. let me remind you, he's already been in the line of fire. he's already shown respect, dignity and courage when he refused to meddle in your domestic politics. i was there with him, as well. it's not the first time hedigfy human being. >> be safe. we want to have you back. be safe all of you. thank you so much. so they're former heavy weight boxing champions and now they're fighting to defend ukraine no matter the cost. it's a c, nn exclusive next. >> some of the prime targets for the russians are out to get you. why do you do it? what motivates you?

day and night. two of the biggest de23efenders kyiv are the mayor and his brother. tonight, cnn's frederick pl plikenned. >> reporter: taking the capital key kyiv they believe is russia's goal. this former boxer believes his troops will not enter this town. we met the mayor and his brother himself a former boxing champion in a secret location in kyiv. >> do you think that you have what it takes to fend them off completely and that this city will not be taken by russia? >> it's our hometown. we never go to the knee. we don't want to be slaves. we don't want back to u.s. assad to leave and dictator to live

our territory. we see our country as modern european democratic country. >> reporter: they are on the move 24/7 visiting residential areas shelled by the russian army. sometimes getting emotional when seeing the aftermath of russian attacks. putin says he's only targeting military targets. sorry. comforting those affected by the war and overseeing the effort to train those looking to confront russian forces. you've really stepped up and organized the defense of the city. how did you manage to do that and learn that so quickly on the fly? >> we don't need to organize. i meet people with very peaceful prof profession. artist. musician. doctors. never ever have idea to take the

uniform and take the weapons in the hand but right now they in the street and ready to fight. two days ago, apartment building destroyed. one man around 60 years old come to me and ask what happened? what i have to do right now? i give him proposal to get him to my safe zone west of ukraine. he told my mayor, i don't want to leave from my hometown, please give me weapons. i'm readily to defend my family my lovely kyiv. instead the panic, instead the demilitarization, people motivate so much and have spirit to defend our future.

>> reporter: but they're up against a strong and better equipped full as president biden visits europe to meet nato allies, the messages get tougher on putin. what are your demands? what do you need to continue the fight? >> our will is strong and it's stronger than any army and any weapon but we definitely need to close our sky. our civilians and our cities are getting destroyed and it's continuing while we give this entry speaking about it, the fights are still going on. we need supply of the defensive weapons. and you guys just need to stop any economical relationship with russia. this way we will isolate them, make them weaker and just show that international law cannot be broken. oil obviously the world needs

oil and gas but it's better to pay higher price than to pay with lives for that oil. >> so you guys, obviously, you want a no fly zone i gather and aircraft, anti-aircraft systems and the like to beat the russians in the skies, that's one of the most important things, right? >> if you supply us with defensive weapons, we'll close the skies on our own. we have enough men and women to stand for the country ask defend as strong as much as possible and we going to close the sky on our own, we just need the defense egypt for that. >> reporter: he knows joe biden well. the two met both in washington d.c. and in kyiv when biden was vice president and the u.s. front man for ukraine policy in the obama administration. what's your message to joe biden as he comes to europe? >> stay with ukraine. thank you for your support.

support ukraine with our friends we're much stronger. it's our future. it's our freedom. we ready to fight for that but we need support for whole democratic world. >> reporter: the klitschkos are celebrities with fan bases in the u.s. and europe and they say for them there is no other place they want to be than in kyiv despite the dangers. you're some of the prime targets for the russians. they're out to get you. why do you do it? w what motivates you? >> it's our homeland. it's our parents here. we grown up. it's our country. it's our home. and simple answer we have to be here. do you know this expression of roots? our roots are here. our father that was one of the survivors, one of the liquids in

oligarch tried to sink a vessel. he tells this story to drew griffin. >> reporter: a 55-year-old nautica engineer spent years on an ageing luxury yacht sailing on the mediterranean. >> translator: we had a crew of nine people including a chef and waiter. >> reporter: he says the yachts and user is a sanctioned putin connected oligarch and ceo of a mayor state run company that rakes in tens of billions of dollars selling everything from weapons to ammo to aircraft. yacht engineer went from cruising in oligarch luxury to a bunker in ukraine. our interview just began, stopped by an alert of an incoming russian attack. >> okay. sorry. see you next time.

bye, bye. >> reporter: his life changed in late february when the yacht was docked in spain and russia invaded his home country. >> welcome back. thank you. >> nice to see you. >> reporter: safe once again, he explained he was spurred to action when he saw this image of a russian military strike on an apartment building in his hometown of kyiv. >> my war has started. yes. >> reporter: at that moment, he knew he had to do something to retaliate. sink the lady anistasha. >> translator: water began to fill up and after that there were three crew members left on board. i announced the boat was sinking and they should leave the ship. i did on on my own. >> reporter: the other crew members that were ukrainian didn't want to risk their jobs and sounded the alarm and called authorities. he was arrested and the boat saved, although damaged. in court, he denied nothing.

instead, declaring he would return to ukraine where he picked up arms and joined the military. >> translator: now a war has begun, a total war between russia and ukraine and you have to choose either you're with ukraine or not. you have to choose will there be ukraine or will you have a job? i made a choice. i don't need a job if i don't have ukraine. >> reporter: back in spain, spain's ministry of transport agreed to the provisional detention of the yacht while it confirms real ownership and determines if it falls under european union sanctions and can be seized. it one of a long list of suspected russian oligarch yachts in an effort to apply pressure on putin through his inner circle to stop this war. he says others working for oligarchs around the world should expose them and their assets. his effort to make the profiters of vladimir putin's regime pay for what they're doing.

>> translator: i think what i did was absolutely 100% correct. i tried to sink the boat as a protest of russian aggression because the owner is connected to the production of russian weapons. they should held responsible because they who with their behavior with their lifestyle with their greed, they precisely led to this to distract the people from the rplunder of russia they did this with other countries that are innocent. >> reporter: is there any message you would like the people of the united states to know right now? >> sent guns to ukraine, please. we must stop it, this war. we must win. >> reporter: don, he has no doubt that the military equipment by the russian defense firm linked to his former boss

is right now killing civilians in ukraine. it is why he did what he did. as for that yacht and its likely owner, we got a response saying it never comments on the personal lives of its employees or their property. don? >> all right. drew, thank you very much. cnn goes inside a children's hospital bar y war. thatat's next with angi, you can connect with and see ratings and reviews. and when youook and pay throug you're covered by our happiness check out angi.com today. angi... andone.

more than 1,000 people, civilians have been killed in this war. and another 1,600 injured. that is according to the u.n. today. but they warn that the actual numbers are likely much higher. cnn's ivan watson visited a hospital in zaporizhzhia today, where dozens of children from across ukraine are being treated. ivan? >> reporter: don, as you well know, everywhere you go in ukraine, you will see these tank traps, you'll see piles of sandbags. but i wasn't quite prepared to see a children's hospital that had sandbags piled up around its windows. and that -- that is the case here at the hospital here in zaporizhzhia and when the air-raid siren went off, we were ushered down into the basement, into the makeshift-bomb shelter. and i watched a parade of nurses and mothers carrying tiny,

little newborns into that room. uh, newborns that have medical complications, which is part of why they're still at the hospital. aged maybe 2 or just 3 weeks. and the nurses told me that they have to do this every day, six or seven times a day, bridge th bring these little babies down into this bunker with other children suffering from a variety of different maladies. one of the doctors who takes care of these little babies talked about this daily routine. >> sometime, it's not long time but we can't get oxygen for children for newborns during transportation from bottom to up. i don't know. i worry all the time because it's abnormal. >> don, the hospital doesn't just take care of -- of kids who

have illnesses. they are also treating children who've been wounded on the front lines of this terrible war. at least nine children have come through in the last two weeks. all of them, with shrapnel wounds and bullet wounds, including a little 11-year-old girl that i met today named melina who was basically shot through the neck and face. her mom says by a russian soldier as the family was trying to flee the besieged port city of mariupol. little milena is recovering but she has been gravely, gravely wounded. and some of the other children that have been brought in have actually had to undergo amputations as part of their emergency treatment. don. >> ivan, thank you so much. appreciate that. and for more information about how you can help humanitarian efforts in ukraine, go to
