atrocities against ukrainian civilians hilt a barbaric new low on friday. a devastating missile strike in a crowded train station in kramatorsk, a city in eastern ukraine. i have to warn you, what we're about to see is graphic and disturbing. at least 50 people killed yesterday and many more wounded. as you can see, many of the victims are small children. the train station has become an evacuation hub for civilians escaping the donbas. women and children. ukrainian authorities say two russian missiles hit the site. ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy vowed to pursue the attack as a war crime. >> translator: we expect a firm global response to this war crime. like the massacre in bucha, like many other russian war crimes,

the missile strike on kramatorsk must be one of the charges at the tribunal which is bound to happy. >> ukraine alleges the attack scattered over the wider area. cruelty compounded by cruelty, claiming the russians did that themselves. the russian denial is incredible. >> we find claims that they weren't involved, particularly when the ministry announced. and saw reports of civilian casualties, decided to unannounce this. so our assessment this was a russian strike and they used a short-range ballistic missile to conduct it. new reports coming in of intense bombardment of the northern city of kharkiv near the russian border.

at least 50 strikes have been reported including artillery mortars, tanks and rockets. reports are they will continue to advance on the donbas region. ukrainian forces massing near the donbas region are almost ready to launch an all-out assault. u.s. estimates russia's fighting strength was degraded about 15% over the past six weeks, requiring substantial reinforcements and resupply. the u.s. has been building up its military strength in neighboring poland. the america's top general has endorsed creating permanent u.s. basis along nato's eastern flank as a deterrent to further russian aggression. well, cnn correspondents are covering the conflict from multiple angles. we have phil black to lviv. fred pleitgen in chernobyl and salma abdelaziz in poland. first, cnn's phil black in

ukraine. they reveal the true level of true brutality that the ukrainians are claiming on russian forces. >> reporter: for many who fear what is coming in eastern ukraine, kramatorsk has been a place for safety. desperate for the region russia says it will son-s soon conquer with force. witnesses say thousands came friday morning. they sought safety. they couldn't escape the war. these are the moments after a ballistic missile exploded at the station. after debris and shrapnel tore through the crowd. so many dead bodies, a person cries. only children, just children. when the screaming eventually stopped, the broken bodies of

the innocent remained. we have to hide much of this scene. most of those lying bleeding and still are women and children. survivors fled. we managed to contact some by phone while they sheltered together in a public building. still scared and shaken. this woman says she looked up when she thought she heard a plane. and then it exploded and everyone went down. this man says he heard the blast and threw his body over his daughter. he remains at the terrified and hurt so many, crashed down near the station. hand painted russian words mark the site, declaring the weapons-avenging purpose. it says for the children. the author and their intent are unknown. the result is yet another moment

of horror in a war with endless capacity for taking and destdestroy ing innocent lives. phil black, cnn, lviv, ukraine. a military expert says it's hard to know that russian forces didn't know it was hitting civilians. >> there's only two ways this could have happened. one, the russians were surveilling the station and would have seen it was civilians. or two, they weren't. but they should have expected there were civilians there. this is a significant bridge of laws of our armed conflict. there is no reasonable prospect of not being guilty of some kind of war crime, at least for those operating the rocket and potentially the military chain of demand acommand above them. in places like kharkiv and kyiv, the russians have been quite happy to result to artillery

craft to shell and bomb those cities and kill the civilians within them. european commissioner ursula von der leyen said it was important to start her vision in bu bucha. von der leyen says those responsible for the atrocities will be brought to justice. >> it was the unthinkable have happened here. we have seen the cruel face of putin's army. we have seen the recklessness and cruel heartless with which they have been occupying the city. >> ukraine's prosecuting general says 164 bodies have been found so much in bucha. remains are also being recovered

in a nearby town of boborough dejanka. now a ukrainian member of parliament. good to have you with us. could you share your own experience at the moment, do you plan to stay in ukraine with your family and continue working for the government? >> of course, we stay in ukraine, my family, my wife and small kids are of course working with me. we work in and gather inside of kyiv during the hardest times. so, we will never leave our jobs and we will never leave our president. >> in over 40 days of this war, give us a sense of what you're seeing and what you're hearing from people you're speaking to? >> what changed in the recent week is that russian leadership of putin are extremely

frustrating, losses in ukraine and are more significant for power, we believe more than 15,000 russian soldiers were killed. and several times over, that they have deserters, they have who have been injured. so that goes up significantly. and in the recent week, we have seen quite shocking statements from the former president of russia closely advocating genocide. with the murders of them and deportation, et cetera. >> atrocities we're see in bucha with civilians on cars and bikes executed and now the train station in kramatorsk where the scene is horrific. many elderly men and women and

children fleeing. why do you think russia is targeting civilians in this way? >> first of all, it's deliberate. it's not a mistake. for example, when they fired two missiles at kramatorsk, they for sure knew from the media that people were right there, they chose not decision, and when less than 1,000 feet in range. they probably have the event statements about genocide. i think they're trying to provoke further behavior of revenge on russian civilians still living in ukraine. although none of this has happened so far. i think they want to term this conflict more broadly so the russian soldiers have greater motivation fighting in ukraine which currently they do not. >> talk about what more do you need and from where you're

sitting, will ukraine win this war? >> will for sure win the war. more than 90% of ukrainians actually believe in victory. we're grateful for the billions of dollars spent in supporting ukraine. this is not taken for granted. but we hope that everybody understands we will continue to ask for more and as much as possible. at the moment, we do need heavier weapons, so stingers are okay, but they're only useful at closer fights. and we have had losses of our own, of course. we lost tanks, we lost armored vehicles and we desperately need to replenish them. we're currently asking western governments to increase the types of munitions more aerial ones to target russians more effective. >> and i understand you have a baby son, do you have family helping you? do you try to work in getting more weapons into the country. >> of course.

i think we will also be working more closely, but the american public, for example, america has one of the largest community of gun owners, i think we will be quite possibly asking americans to share their gear which they may not find useful for themselves. for sure, we'll use them very gratefully in ukraine. >> we appreciate your time, we wish you all the very best. and take care. >> thank you. ukraine's prosecutor general is leading the country's investigation into russia's war crimes. she appeared on cnn to react on the attack at the kramatorsk train station. >> it's ordinary stretch of putin's army to kill just civilians. civilians who want save via

life. 52 deaths for the moment, we had in kramatorsk. it was women, it was kids, who wanted to leave, who wanted to be re-created. we understand this as unnecessary death. and the end of these deaths are just to kill people who are not there. this, we actually see in ukraine. kyiv region for today, more than 800 deaths. bucha, irpin, borodianka, it's cruelty, actually, atrocity crimes, war crimes against humanity. we see they do the war no by rules at all. >> international condemnation

was quick to come as brutality of that attack on the train station became apparent. french president emmanuel macron called it an abomination, all the victims had in their hands were push carts, teddy bears and suitcases. antonio guterres tweeted there must be with gross violation of internal humanitarian and human rights law. >> children's lives cut short. mothers, children, women and men bombed indiscriminately. what we are seeing there are crime scenes, international war crimes, being committed against a sovereign people who are simply fighting for dremocracy and their country. the fate of pakistan's imran

khan has been dogged recently by claims of mismanagement. and part of it is part of a u.s. conspiracy to push him out, something the u.s. denies. still to come on "cnn newsroom," millions have fled to poland to escape the fighting in ukraine. we'll have a live report at the border just ahead. plus, we'll hear from a doctor working out of a train station hit by the russian air strike. stay with us. real good. all of knorr's high quality pasta and ririce sides are now made with no artificial flavors or preservatives. knorr. taste for good.d. migraine attacks? you can't always avoid triggers like stress. qulipta™ can help prevent migrainettacks. you can't prevent what'soing on outside th's why qulipta™ helps what's going on inside. qulipta™ is a pill. gets right to work to prevent migraine attacks and keeps them away over time. qulipta™ blocks cgrp,

well, according to the united nations, more than 4.4 million people have fled ukraine. and more than 7 million are internally displaced. the ukrainian officials are racing to get civilians out of endangered areas. more than 6600 people fled through humanitarian cords on friday. coming there will be humanitarian corridors through region and the luhansk region. cnn's salma abdelaziz is where 2

million ukrainians have fled. what short of influx do you see now? >> reporter: every day, lynda, we see thousands of people lining up here in poland. it's a very organic process. you have to understand, there's no refugee camp, any large structure to absorb them. people get here and they have to figure out what to do next, where to spend the night. this train station, oftentimes, it takes a few days of course to cross to ukraine. sometimes, we see the people cross by the humanitarian corridors in the far eastern part of the country. it's really the first safety in poland. it's not just a transport hub, it's a medical point. you see an ambulance here. inside is a first aid station. there's always a paramedic available for people to be checked out if they have wounds or pregnant. whatever might be their medical attention that they need.

we see people, oftentimes, lynda, they only have what they carry so they need moment when they arrive. one of the places that needs help is world central kitchen. what they've been doing every day, is offer hot meals for the families. as you can see, they set up the warm tent where people can sit down, take a break. get a nice meal. figure out where they're going to go next. every refugee you speak to, lynda is going to tell you the same thing, i don't want to be a refugee. i want to go home. i just want to find a place to lay down for a couple more weeks. >> we can only hope it's a couple more weeks. world central kitchen are doing a great job. sa salma, i want to know what the people in poland are saying about the russian invasion and whether there are fears the war could come to them? >> reporter: there's a great sense of anger about what's happening in ukraine here in poland. there's been an outpouring of support of humanity for the

welcomeness. oftentimes, the volunteers are just ordinary polish families coming to the train station. offering a spare room in their house. offering a ride. donating food, clothing, whatever they can give. again, over 2.5 million refugees in this country but they absolutely opened their doors to these refugees but it's a completely organic process. he's refugees are oftentimes staying at a friend's house or into a school turned shelter. it's huge for the polish government to take in. yes there is support being rolled out. but you hear over and over again, with the polish government, the polish authorities can't handle this alone. they're appealing to the international community and they say everyone, the entire international community needs to provide support for 2.5 million people here now. lynda. >> salma abdelaziz, good to have you with us. thanks so much. earlier, i spoke with

dr. joanne mew from dnipro, ukraine. he's a doctor with doctors without borders i asked her about the challenge for people to leave cities like mariupol. take a listen. >> right now, we're working in places that are basically closed to the front line. and then we work on three main pillars which is supply, making sure that they have everything to respond to increase influx of patients. we're working on what we call mass casualty. which means a big amount of patients all at once, how do you triage them, how do you prioritize them and make sure everybody gets the need, and third, medical evacuation. medical people to assist in place to make sure they have continued health care management. >> and talk to us about the sort of injuries that your doctors --

the doctors without borders are treating right now. >> so, we've -- we've been, you know, seeing in most, it's like in many other i will say crisis, the early case management is actually done by the hospital trained in the hospital. and they have great skill, great competences. what we've been seeing on patients we're evacuating, a lot of them have been injured. especially those from fleeing mariupol, so they have blast injury and contact wound. but mainly blast injury. >> our thanks to joanne -- dr. joanne liu. the ukrainian mayor killed in the region have been laid to rest. the authorities say she was brutally murdered along with her

husband and son while being held captive. they were shot in the head with their hands tied behind their backs. the gruesome nature and we want to warn you it's very graphic and disturbing. the family buried here in a shallow grave are buried. a member of the family spoke with erin burnett. >> when the wars came, lots of villagers left the city in order to escape from war. but the family decided to stay because they really wanted to help others. i think they're really heros of ukraine, because they stayed in order to help others and support others. >> they are believed to be held captive by russian forces that's according to one of ukraine's

deputy prime ministers. if you'd like to safely and securely help people in ukraine who may be need of shelter, food or water. go to cnn.com/impact. you'll find several ways to help. we started the hour with the devastating missile strike at the train station in eastern ukraine but now we want to bring you a message of hope and love. meet the newly bride and groom. the nurse and doctor have volunteered as medics since the start of the war. the groom anton has an important message, he said that love will defeat everything. despite throughout ukraine, he adds there is still room for love and kindness. in the build up to the 2022 eurovision song contest, ukraine's nominee has arrived in israel for a preview contest, a

ukrainian musical group will be performing at the eurovision contest next month. they'll be dedicating their song stefania to their motherland. >> translator: i want to say that this song is dedicated to my mother, but now that there's war in ukraine it's gaining new meaning. metaphorically, many people disturb the words my mother as ukraine that needed to be protected. that is why i want to urge people to cherish peace. it became important now how important peace is when there is no peace. ♪ >> the band also did an impromptu performance at the news conference. i'm lynda kincade, thanks for the international viewers for watching. for you, 2020 is next. and for those join us from america, we'll be back with more

breaking news from ukraine after a short break. ♪

♪ welcome back to our viewers here in the united states, i'm lynda kincade, and this is "cnn newsroom." more on breaking news out of ukraine, the northern eastern city of kharkiv is seeing renewed russian shelling. that's according to the region's governor who said they've been hit dozens of times in the past day. meantime, the mayor of odesa, by the black sea says there's been an explosion. residents are advised to go to bomb shelters but he says the

situation is undercontrol. ukraine president's president is holding to those responsible for those responsible for the blast at kramatorsk train station. thousands were waiting to escape to safety. here's how one ukrainian member of parliament described it. >> this is one of their next level of russian crimes. i can't even describe in words what we feel here. russia are hitting where it hurts the most. they're hitting train stations where people are trying to evacuate. the chernobyl nuclear reactor site in kharkiv was one of the first places they took over with troops. and it fears that many russian

soldiers were exposed to dangerous radiation possibly without knowing it. cnn's frederick pleitgen has this exclusive report. >> reporter: simply getting to the chernobyl exclusion zone is a treacherous journey. many streets and bridges destroyed. we had to go off road, crossing on pontoon bridges. finally, we reached the power dome of the plant that blew up in 1986, the worst nuclear accident ever. russian troops invaded this area on the very first day on the war against ukraine and took chernobyl without much of a fight. now that the russians have left, ukraine's interior ministry took us to chernobyl, and what we found was troubling. the russians imprisoned the security staff inside the plant's over bomb shelter. the interior minister told us, no natural light, no fresh air, no communications. so the russians kept 169

ukrainians prisoner here the entire time they held the place. then when the russians left, they looted and ransacked the place. among the prisoners, police officers, national guard members and soldiers. ukraine's interior minister tells me the russians have now taken them to russia. and they don't know how they're doing. when i arrived here i was shocked, he says, but only once again, realize that there are no good russians and nothing good comes of russian. it is always a story associated with victims and blood and violence. what we see here is a vivid example of outrageous behavior at a nuclear facility. while the plant's technical staff was allowed to keep working, the ukrainians say russian troops were lax with nuclear safety. and as we enter the area russian troops stayed and worked in, suddenly, the meter alarm goes off. increased radiation level.

they went to the red forest and brought the radiation here on their shoes, this national guardsman says, everything else is normal only this floor is radioactive. i asked everywhere else is okay but this is not normal? yes, he says the radiation is here because they went everywhere. on their shoes i ask? yes, and they took the radiation with them. let's get out of here, i say. the red soil is one of the most contaminated in the world. especially the soil. they are apparently showing that the russians dug combat operations there. the operator of ukraine's nuclear plant says those russian soldiers could have been exposed to significant amounts of radiation. we went to the edge of the red forest zone and found a russian military food ration on the ground. when we hold the doce meter close, it skyrockets to about 50

times above levels. ukraine says it's a threat to safety. the chernobyl plant hasn't been in operation for years. of course, this confinement needs to be monitored 24/7 and also there's spent fuel in this compound as well. it's not only chernobyl, russian troops fired on zaporizhzhia in southern ukraine and are now occupying it. ukraine's minister tells me the international community must step in. >> i think it's apparent this is act of civility that they're doing. >> reporter: the russian army used this road as one main route to attack the capital. the interior minister says his country needs more weapons to defend this border. today, the border between totalitarianism and democracy passes behind our backs he says. the border between freedom and

oppression, we are ready to fight for it. and the ukrainians fear they may have to fight here again soon as russian president vladimir putin replenishes his forces continuing to put this nation and nuclear safety at risk. fred pleitgen cnn, at the chernobyl nuclear plant in ukraine. well, despite a strike lockdown and widespread testing, a covid outbreak in china shows no sign of slowing. details on that and the latest travel warning from the u.s. government. plus, ketanji brown jackson has her moment in the sun before taking one of the toughest jobs in washington. the details just ahead. in the nutritional drink you choose. try boost glucose control®. it's clinically shown to help manage blood sugar l levels and contains high quauality protein to help manage hunger and support muscle health. try boost® today..

u.s. state department has just authorized nonemergency government workers and their families to leave shanghai. the u.s. is also warning travelers to avoid travel to china because of what they call

arbitrary enforcement of local laws. the once bustling city remains quiet due to the continued lockdown. the 25,000 new covid cases reported in all of china on friday, 23,000 were in shanghai. our anna coren is following this story from hong kong. and joins us now live. anna, it's two years into the pandemic. this is a pretty extreme lockdown. people complaining they can't get food. and they're planning more pcr testing for the entire city. >> reporter: yeah, severe shortages, lynda, of food and medicine. food distribution also causing mug problems. people ordering food. it's not arriving due to road closures. i think these people, these 25 million people in shanghai are fed up. they've been voicing their frustration. venting their anger on social media. we know criticism internally within china is stamped out. it's silent.

these people do not care about the repercussions. they are fed up. there have also been cases, lynda, of covid positive children are being separated by uninfected parents. causing enormous outrage in the city. shanghai in the post populous city in china. it is the engine. it contributes 4% gdp. up until now, it's gotten away pretty much relatively unscathed from this strict zero covid policy. the reason being, as officials said, you cannot lock down a city because of its economic importance. but due to the outbreak, this is the worst outbreak in china, since the pandemic have began. authorities have taken these strict, you know, measures of locking down the entire city since the end of march. obviously, thousands of personnel, medical personnel, have been brought into the city.

we know that makeshift hospitals have been set up to deal with these cases, as you say, 23,000 cases. that is another record for shanghai. and obviously, rising. we did hear, lynda, from authorities today that they may ease restrictions in some areas of shanghai. once they do this, another round of mass testing. but no time frame has been given. now, we know there are public health implications. there are concerns, obviously, that the health system would be completely overwhelmed if there was a major outbreak of covid across china. but it's more than just public health that is at stake. there are political implications as well. china's leader xi jinping has really pinned his leadership on this dynamic zero covid strategy. he's called it a great success. in that it shows that socialist china is far better than western

democracy. he's also looking for a third term later this year, that is unprecedented. he does not want economic social political instability. he does not want his authority to be undermined or for a covid crisis to overshadow his momentous occasion. lynda. >> yeah, certainly, difficult challenges ahead, especially in shanghai. anna coren for us in hong kong. thanks so much. well, the number of people who attended a washington event and are now infected with covid has grown yet again. the gridiron club says 53 people have tested positive. they all attended a dinner of washington power players last saturday. among the high-profile guests have included the attorney general merrick garland. the congress secretary, as well as several members of congress and president biden's sister. no one has reported severe symptoms from their infections.
