this is cnn breaking news. >> hello, i'm john vause live in lviv, ukraine. welcome to our viewers in the united states and around the world. thank you for joining us for our breaking news coverage of russia's brutal military offensive, now into day 42. we begin with signs that

russia's war on ukraine entering a new phase, giving little hope that it will end any time soon. nato expects russia to launch a new offensive in southern and eastern ukraine, likely in a matter of weeks. but we're already seeing evidence of those new tactics. leaders in the kharkiv region right next to russia's border say more than 50 russian strikes have hit that area in the past 24 hours alone. that's about two strikes every hour. ukrainian officials say at least six people have been killed in those attacks. and to the south, mykolaiv, local official says russian troops shelled a children's hospital on monday. security footage appears to show the minute the strike hit an ambulance parked outside. a team from doctors without borders was on-site at a nearby hospital confirmed strikes there as well as at the children's hospital. meantime, america's top ranking military officers warning that russia's war in ukraine could be the first sign of similar conflicts to come. >> we are entering a world that is becoming more unstable and

the potential for significant international conflict between great powers is increasing, not decreasing. >> ukraine's president is demanding the united nations do more to end russia's invasion, questioning the security council's very mandate, volodymyr zelenskyy showed the u.n. a graphic video documenting the death and destruction in cities across his country. he described the atrocities against civilians he saw during his visit to bucha calling russia's actions no different than those of a terror group. >> translator: they killed entire families, adults and children, and they tried to burn the bodies. civilians were crushed by tanks while sitting in their cars in the middle of the road, just for their pleasure. they cut off limbs, slashed their throats. women were raped and killed in front of their children. their tongues were pulled out only because the aggressor did not hear what they wanted to hear from them.

>> president zelenskyy says borayanka is another town where russia's brutality is coming to life now that troops have recruited. cnn's fred pleitgen has a firsthand look at the carnage and the widespread destruction there. and a warning. some of the images and the details in his report are graphic and disturbing. >> reporter: in the war that russia has unleashed against ukraine, few places have suffered more than borodianka. occupied by vladimir putin, russians for a very long time. and just to give you an idea about the scale of the destruction you have houses like these that were completely destroyed. but if you look over here, you can see even large residential buildings have been flattened. this entire building was flattened. it was connected with this one before, but now there is absolutely nothing left of it. and the russians made sure to show they owned this town,

painting the letter v on occupied buildings, even defacing borodyanka's administration building. v is the letter they used to show forces invaded this part of ukraine. oksana and her husband just returned here and found russian soldiers had been staying in their house. she says they ransacked the place. "alcohol is everywhere," she says. "empty bottles in the hallways under things. they smoked a lot, put out sinks on the table." they also showed us the corpse of a man they found in the backyard, his hands and feet tied, severe bruises on his body, a shell casing nearby. russia claims its forces don't target civilians, calling reports of atrocities fake and provocations. but these body collectors are the ones who have to remove the carnage russia's military leaves in its wake. in a span of less than an hour,

they found a person gunned down while riding a bicycle, a body burned beyond recognition, and a man still stuck in his car, gunned down with bullet holes in his head and chest. he was believed to be transporting medical supplies, now strewn near this road. the most awful thing is those are not soldiers laying there, just people, innocent people, gennadi says. for no reason, i ask? yes, killed and tortured for no reason, he says. the road from kyiv to brodyan cbrodyanka is lined with vehicles left behind, but indications of how much firepower they unleashed on this area. the russians say this is a special operation, not a war, and that they don't harm civilians. but look how much ammunition

they left behind simply in this one single firing position here. this is ammunition for heavy weapons with devastating effects on civilian areas. that devastation cuts through the towns and villages north of kyiv where the number of dead continues to rise. now that vladimir putin's armys have withdrawn, ukraine's leaders still believe many more bodies could be buried beneath the rubble. fred pleitgen, borodyanka, ukraine. to the south, mariupol still a hotbed for heavy fighting and airstrikes. now a civilian ship is on fire and sinking in mariupol's port. ukraine's interior ministry says the ship was under a dominican republic flag when it was hit by shelling. weeks of intense fighting has decimated the city. drone footage taken tuesday shows mariupol residents waiting in long lines to receive humanitarian aid to the people who have done this to their town, the russians. the mayor says 100,000 people are still trapped inside that city, most without running water, food, medicine, or

electricity. an elected official with mariupol's city council joins me from somewhere in western ukraine. sir, thank you for taking the time to speak with us. i want to start with these reports. what do you know about hundreds, possibly thousands of ukrainian women and children being forced on the buses and taken to so-called filtration camps inside russia? what do you know? >> hello. i know that people in mariupol now don't have a choice where to go, and if they have a chance to go out from the mariupol in any side, they choose to go out because they don't have electricity, they don't have heat, they don't have eat, food, they don't have water. so there are no choice for them. and russians don't let to get ukrainian humanitarian to mariupol for about one month. they only shows their side are

helping to the people. but thousands don't offer humanitarian help, food, medicine, water, they don't allow it to mariupol. and i think they don't want to show the real situation to the ukrainian government, to the local government in mariupol because of their atrocities. >> well, you know that the city remains under siege by russian forces. but after everything that we've seen in bucha and beyond, there must be real concern now for the fate of residents there and what they have endured at the hands of russian soldiers. what do you know at this point? what are you hearing from residents? ma what have they said to you about what's been happening in those areas, which are controlled by russian troops? >> in mariupol today is catastrophe. and russia is a country of lying. they show in their tv in their

media that russians don't strike on civil building. but look to mariupol. mariupol buildings is about 90% totally destroyed. and they show the mariupol buildings destroyed and say they don't use airstrikes on the buildings. they lying in their own media. so it's we can trust russians in anything, because they kill people, but they say they don't kill people. >> we've also seen the international communities of the red cross repeatedly try and gain access to mariupol, not just to deliver humanitarian aid, but to get civilians out as well. they've been denied access. so when we look at people receiving humanitarian aid, they're receiving that aid from the russians, the very same people who have done this destruction to their town. >> but we seen main aid. if ukrainian aid which they

stolen from ukraine in convoy. and another thing. russians last two days are claiming in their media that ukrainian military are striking only humanitarian corridor. but russia controls all around mariupol, about 300s of kilometers. there are no ukrainian military near the humanitarian corridor. and russia state say ukrainian military don't allow to get humanitarian convoy and humanitarian help. so they're lying directly to all the world. >> it makes no sense the ukrainians be firing on those humanitarian corridors at all. clearly it is the russians who are doing it. the mayor of mariupol says the city is now on the edge of humanitarian disaster for more than a month now, no food, no running water, no electricity.

it is hard to imagine how life there can get much worse. >> i don't have words to describe the situation. a lot of people die in not about of the shelling or of the bombing, but about their starving or about they don't have hydration, they don't have any water. and if russians really care about the people, they don't start this bloody war. and for second, even they start it, they led the ukrainian side to go into the city and to kill the people. and to get out most of the people. they only need the picture that they are liberators. they don't care for the people. it's inhuman. >> it is inhuman, and it is obvious what the happen.

ma ma maxim borodin, thank you and stay safe. a group of ukrainian p.o.w.s returned home recently part of an exchange with russia. christiane amanpour spoke with several about their treatment in russian captivity. she has more now in this exclusive report. >> reporter: back home and free, these former ukrainian prisoners of war once held by russian forces are greeted by friends and colleagues in kyiv. freedom for now is the drag of a cigarette, walking on home turf, even if they means using crutches. bags of food are handed out to the more than 80 former ukrainian p.o.w.s released in a prisoner exchange with russia. it's a welcome meal and a moment to decompress and reflect on what many here say was the physical and mental abuse they endured in russian custody.

one p.o.w. named gleb says he was captured nearly a month ago while evacuating civilians. he was beaten by russian soldiers. >> translator: they hit me in the face with machine gun butts and kicked me. my front teeth were also chipped. >> reporter: anya and dasha were in the same unit. it was shelled by russian troops who they say tried to break them, making them shout "glory to russia" and they shaved their heads, telling them that it was for hygiene purposes. >> maybe they were trying to break our spirit in some way. >> translator: it was a shock, but then we're strong girls, you know. >> reporter: dmytro says he was taken by russian soldiers in mariupol and suffered daily beatings during his captivity. >> translator: they would beat us five to six times a day for nothing. they would just take us into the hallway and beat us up. >> reporter: it's an ordeal, and it will take time to heal both mentally and physically, though

many say they want to go back to their units and continue fighting. but before that, gleb shows us a slip of paper with what he says are the phone numbers of loved ones of prisoners still held captive by the russians. he says he will tell the families they're still alive and not to give up hope. christiane amanpour, cnn, kyiv. >> we'll take a short break. but still ahead this hour, russia's brazen denial. how the kremlin is explaining the horrific scenes from bucha, as well as other cities across ukraine. then why a new round of sanctions could hit very close to home for the putin family. more on that in a moment. cal: our confident forever plan is possible with a cfp® professional. a cfp® professional can help you build a complete financial plan. visit t letsmakeaplan.org to find your cfp® professional. ♪

india's u.n. representative has condemned the killings of bucha and ukraine, and called for an open investigation. india has been reluctant to speak out against the invasion of ukraine by its long-time ally russia. so far it has called for an end to violence and diplomacy and dialogue. this is a significant move by new delhi in condemning what's happened in bucha. well, images of those atrocities committed across ukraine escalating efforts now to punish russia. biden administration official says the u.s. will impose new sanctions in the coming day. this is a sweeping package expected to ban new investments in russia, target financial institutions as well. u.s. also targeting kremlin officials and their families. meantime, the european commission is pushing for another round of sanctions on moscow, the fifth round of sanctions. this time proposing everything from a ban on russian coal as well as other raw materials to prohibiting transaction was major russian banks. in a moment, we'll hear from cnn's nic robertson on the rest of the new eu sanctions. but we'll hear first from chief

white house correspondent kaitlan collins. >> reporter: on wednesday, the white house will announce a new sanctions package on russia after those horrifying images emerged from bucha and other places in ukraine of these atrocities committed by russia. and we are told that this new passage will be done in conjunction where the european union and g7 allies with the united states. but for the united states' part, this is going to include a ban on all new investments in russia, and tightening of the sanctions that are already in place on these russian financial institutions and state-owned enterprises, and also more sanctions on russian government officials and their family members. and that latter part has raised some concerns about whether or not about some questions about whether or not that would actually include two of putin's daughters who the european union has discussed sanctioning. of course people have asked the white house if that is something they are considering doing, but the white house has not yet disclosed that. we should note as the white house is continuing to tighten the screws, apply more sanctions and more pressure on russia, putin has continued with this

brutal assault. and according to the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff who is testifying on capitol hill on tuesday, he warned that this invasion, this protracted battle could go on for potentially years. that comes after the national security adviser jake sullivan said he believed this next phase where russia is repositioning its forces around ukraine after note achieving their initial objectives could take months. and now chairman milley saying this is something that could last for years as he talked about the increased instability across the globe, all caused by russia's invasion. kaitlan collins, cnn, the white house. >> with the atrocities in bucha spurring the european union to trigger a fifth round of sanctions against russia, banning the import of russian coal, that's worth $4.3 billion a year to russia. but to give an idea of that compared to all the energy imports from russia -- coal, oil, and gas, since the beginning of the war about 40

days ago, that cost has already exceeded $21 billion. so coal a relatively small fraction of europe's energy imports from russia. ursula von der leyen, the european commission president saying that this new round of sanctions would bite harder into the russian economy. >> the full packages of sanctions have hit hard and limited the kremlin's political and economic options. we're seeing tangible results, but clearly, in view of events, we need to increase our pressure further. so today we are proposing to take our sanctions a step further. we will make them broader and sharper so that they cut even deeper into the russian economy. >> she also said that sanctions would target four key russian banks, including the vtb pank, russia's second largest. she also said they would target

$10.9 billion worth of exports to russia, including high-tech items like quantum computers and rare semiconductors. she also said they would target russia's shipping, that russian vessels and russian operated vessels wouldn't be able to use european union ports. this is europe's effort to ramp up the economic pain on russia. nic robertson, cnn, brussels. >> and the u.n. human rights commissioner says the horrific images from bucha, ukraine show all the sign that civilians were directly targeted and killed. the ukrainian army was out on the streets tuesday, collecting discarded weapons and unexploded ordnance. many of the bodies had already been taken away now that russian forces have withdrawn. the images of mass graves and body bags reinforce the need for countries around the world to those those responsible

accountable. >> what we've seen in bucha is not the random act of a rogue unit. it's a deliberate campaign to kill, to torture, to rape, to commit atrocities. >> the russian foreign minister sergey lavrov calls the video from bucha artificial, meant to derail peace talks between russia and ukraine. but he failed to mention satellite images that helped prove the images are real. our reporting from matthew chance contains graphic content yet again. >> reporter: if you think russian soldiers are human, he says, just look at this. the shocked words of a ukrainian driver recording these appalling scenes on the road into bucha.

but what took place here is beyond words, beyond outrage. ukrainian officials say the bodies being retrieve ready of civilians, killed by russian forces in the town. some with their hands tied behind their backs before being shot dead. evidence of war crimes. a charge the kremlin and its propaganda machine is categorically denying. this is how one of the top anchors of russian state television explained the massacre. "it must have been the work of british specialists," he says, because the town of bucha and the english word butcher sounds

so similar. maybe it's a joke, but no one is laughing. certainly not the kremlin's spokesman, dmitry peskov, who has dubbed the killings a well staged tragic show and a forgery to try to denigrate the russian amarillo. army. a huge amount of data, he told journalists clearly indicates this is faked, staged say russian officials after their troops had left. but satellite images of bucha first published by "the new york times" show bodies had been strewn across the streets there for weeks, at least from march 18th when the town was under russian control. photographic evidence that contradicts the kremlin's claims. it's also raising concerns that more killings will be unearthed as russian forces withdraw.

the ukrainian president, seen here visiting bucha, accusing russia of trying to hide the traces of their crimes in other parts of ukraine that remain under russian control. it makes a peace deal even harder. "every day we find people in barrels, strangled or tortured in basements," president zelenskyy says. "it's very difficult to negotiate when you see what they have done here," he adds. it is sickening to accept, but the sacrifice of these people may have actually pushed back the chances of peace in ukraine. instead of bringing this appalling conflict to an end. matthew chance, cnn. >> still ahead this hour, war

welcome back, everyone. 32 minutes past the hour here. the united nations reporting nearly 1500 civilians have been killed. more than 2100 injured since russia invaded ukraine. but there is a general agreement those are drastic underestimates. cnn's ivan watson received

permission to speak with some of the more gravely wounded ukrainians. we cannot tell you where the hospital is for fear it may become a russian target. and again, this report contains some graphic images. >> reporter: shattered bodies in the intensive care unit of a ukrainian hospital. men and women from the ukrainian military whose war wounds are so catastrophic, they need machines to breathe. these deeply uncomfortable images a glimpse of the physical toll this conflict is taking on both soldiers and civilians. >> the general director of the hospital says that after the first couple of days of this new war, at least 30 medical personnel resigned because of just the trauma of seeing these kinds of injuries up close. >> reporter: a soldier named yuri wants to communicate. >> he can't speak because he is still on the ventilator. he has regained consciousness

after 11 days in a coma. >> reporter: we won't identify him because doctors say his family does not yet know of his injuries. >> he has one child. a daughter, he signals, 13 years old. writing in my notebook, yuri tells me he has been in the military for two years. the doctors say that he has a very good chance of surviving very serious shrapnel injuries to his body. we were given permission to film here provided we not name the hospital nor the city that we're in. and that's because the ukrainian authorities fear that that information could lead to the russian military directly targeting this hospital. in every room here, there is a patient whose bones and tissues have been ripped apart by flying metal. vladimir is a volunteer. he signed up on the second day of this war in 2022. this electrician turned volunteer soldier comes from the

russian speaking city of kharkiv. three days ago, a battle left him with two broken arms and wounds to the stomach. vladimir says his sister lives in russia, and he no longer communicates with her. i asked why. he said that she believes that the ukrainians are enemies. this is a family that is split apart by this war and different narratives of who started it. vladimir and the soldier with the fresh amputation lying next to him both insist that only force can stop russia's war on this country. down the hall, i meet a young civilian also horrificfully wounded. >> dima is 21 years old. where are you from? >> mariupol. >> reporter: dema is a recent university graduate, photographed here with his mother natasha. "my mother died when this happened to me," he says.

adding, "i've cried it off already. i'm calmer now." he says on the night of march 9th, he and his mother were hiding in the bathroom of a two-story house in the center of mariupol when they heard warplanes overhead bombing the neighborhood. mother and son were hiding in the bathroom shortly before 1:00 a.m. he says when the bomb hit the house. when he woke up, his legs were gone. he never saw his mother again. during my visit, a friend gives dima a phone. this is the first time he is seeing the building where he and his mother were sheltering when they were hit. the red car here that is destroyed in front of the ruined building was his mother's car. >> translator: of course i get angry. i get sad. i get depressed at times.

but i can't lose my cool, because those who did this to me probably want me to sit here crying and weeping. >> reporter: don't let the silence in these halls fool you. there is deep, seething anger in this hospital at the country that launched this unprovoked war on ukraine. ivan watson, cnn, in eastern ukraine. >> we'll have a lot more from ukraine at the top of the hour. let's hand it back to rosemary church at cnn headquarters in atlanta. rosemary, it is not a small threat that the russians could target that hospital. vladimir putin used similar tactics during the siege of aleppo, targeting medical centers, deliberately targeting medical center there's and similar seems to be happening here right now in ukraine. >> yeah. i mean, these are tough stories to tell, aren't they? thank you so much, john. we will see you again at the top of the hour. and still to come, finding safety in shelter in an office building. up next, we will hear how one company in poland opened their

authorities in shanghai say the lockdown in the city will continue until further notice amid yet another round of citywide covid testing. more than 17,000 new cases were reported in the city on wednesday, and officials are building makeshift hospitals to hold thousands of newly infected covid patients. cnn's selina wang joins me now live from tokyo with more on all of this. good to see you, selina. so what is going on in shanghai? authorities scrambling to contain this outbreak despite an extended and draconian lockdown with apparently few supplies being made available to citizens? >> reporter: there are strong feelings of frustration and

helplessness in shanghai right now, rosemary. the scale of this lockdown is just staggering. 25 million people locked in. this is china's most populous city, and they have been struggling to get daily essentials, urgent medical care. now they're being told that this citywide lockdown is going to continue indefinitely. but signs of dissent on social media are being swiftly censored in china. most of the social media videos shown in our story were swiftly erased from chinese internet shortly after posting. anger is reaching a boiling point in shanghai. chinese social media showing residents in lockdown protesting, chanting "we want jobs, we want freedom." hundreds in one shanghai neighborhood broke out of confinement, pleading for affordable food. this resident confronts the police, yelling "why are we being starved?" residents in another neighborhood crowded at the gate
