made. i'm rich barnes. it's hard for people to know how much their accident case is worth. let our injury attorneys help you get the best result possible. ♪ the barnes firm injury attorneys ♪ ♪ call one eight hundred, eight million ♪ hello and welcome to our viewers joining us here in the united states and all around the world. you are watching "cnn newsroom," and i'm rosemary church. just ahead. a terrifying sencene in denmark after a gunman opened fire in a

shopping mall. we will have details. police body cam footage sheds light on a death of an unarmed man in ohio. you will hear from the community demanding justice. and ukrainian troops are forced to withdraw from a key city as europe posts a conference on rebuilding the country. we are live in kyiv with the latest. ♪ >> announcer: live from cnn center, this is "cnn newsroom" with rosemary church. good to have you with us. we begin in ukraine where officials are already turning an eye towards rebuilding even as their troops suffer a major setback on the battle field. in the hours ahead, ukrainian officials will arrive in switzerland for talks about how to rebuild the country once the fighting ends. but for now the war rages on with russian forces claiming control of a critical city in

the east. on sunday, ukraine's military said it was forced to withdraw from a key target in russia's push to take control of the donbas. the loss likely means russian forces now effectively control the entire luhansk region and can shift their focus to advancing in neighboring donetsk. neighboring cities are coming under more fire. ukrainian officials showed this video showing the aftermath of an attack. they say at least six people were killed and 15 wounded amid some of the heaviest shelling in recent days. in his nightly address, ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy described the onslaught the ukrainian troops are facing. >> translator: russia has enough systems to destroy city after city in ukraine. they have now accumulated their largest firepower in donbas, and

they can use tens of thousands of artillery shells every day on one section of the front. this is reality. this is why we destroy the potential of the occupiers, day after day, calculated. powerfully. we will rebuild the walls. we will regain the land. but people must be saved above all else. >> and for more we want to bring in cnn's scott mclane. he joins us live from kyiv. good to see you, scott. so russia controls the entire luhansk region, but you heard them vowing to fight back plus heavy weapons from the west. what is the latest on this? >> reporter: ukrainians also saying, rosemary, they took heavy losses. they continue to make the point the russians haven't been able to advance westward as quickly as they would like amid some of the heaviest fighting they've

seen in the eastern donbas region, especially in this battle for sievierodonetsk, and now lysychansk. russians are now in control, it seems. the president as you mentioned said, look, they are going to be back. they are going to be fighting for this region, but they are not going to go back until they have enough heavy weapons to actually fight it. of course, they have been appealing for more help from their western partners from the outset of the war. even before then, and they've gotten plenty of shipments of arms of ammunition already. but they have been really slow to get to the front lines, so they would like to see that accelerated so you don't have as you heard the president there saying the enemy is firing tens of thousands of artillery shells every single day. the good news for the people who stayed in that city of lysychansk, there could be thousands of them. they no longer have to hide in

their basements because it is far too dangerous to attempt to escape. what i found very interesting is cnn spoke to one of the regional military chiefs in that area who said that they would go often door to door or at the request of family members to find people and try to assist them in escaping and evacuating, and many of them simply did not want to go. they suspect a lot of those people were likely helping the russians. they were collaborating with the russians, help them to adjust their fire based on where they knew that the ukrainian positions were, which is obviously very difficult when you have an enemy fighting you from within, fighting on your side of the battle lines with the other side. he figures that the russians are going to now move on to the donetsk region which they have made inroads in, take both regions, declare them to be part of russia. when ukrainians go back to take their own lands, the russians will say now you're attacking

russian territory. >> scott mclane bringing us a live update from kyiv. many thanks. as we mentioned earlier in the hours ahead, officials from around the world will gather in switzerland to sketch out plans for rebuilding ukraine after the war. they will also hear directly from ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy about what his country needs. earlier i spoke with ukrainian m.p. kiera rudik about what they need now and what mr. zelenskyy will be asking for. >> well, first of all, we need to ask for the infrastructure rebuilt. it needs to happen not after the war ends, not after the victory. it needs to happen right now because in so many areas of ukraine, the infrastructure is destroyed and it affects lives of ukrainian citizens. it's not that you can say, okay, let's put it aside and go back to that after the war ends,

because we are facing very, very complicated autumn and winter and we need people to have their homes heated. we need transport. we need them to have water supplies, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. and that president zelenskyy will be asking for. we need finances to be able to adjust our governmental war and this is where i'm personally involved in terms of the digitalization. so one of the things we are facing is the country is many, many different logistical issues, like we have many people who don't have documents. we have many children who lost their parents. we have many people who are applying for their humanitarian support without being registered anywhere because they don't have homes any more. for that we are asking support to continue the process of digitalization to make sure that

we are able to adjust our processes to the ukrainian people. third thing he will be asking for is, of course, the support of ukrainian sector. you see right now that ukraine used to be one of the third suppliers of the world of grain, oil, tomatoes and corn. right now our ports are blocked. we need to figure out different logistical ways of delivering the result of our agricultural sector to people. and for that we also need finances. and it needs to happen right now, not after the war ends. >> we are getting new information on sunday's deadly shooting in denmark. [ gunshots ] [ screaming ]

>> police say at least three people are dead after a gunman opened fire in a busy shopping mall in copenhagen. the victims include two danish 17-year-olds and a russian man living in denmark. authorities also say two swedish and two danish citizens were among those critically injured and there is no indication this was an act of terrorism. the suspected gunman is due to face a judge in the coming hours. cnn's nada bashir is in london with more details. >> reporter: well, the investigation is still very much ongoing, and we are still learning more information about this incident hour by hour. at this stage police have confirmed that one individual has been arrested. a 22-year-old danish man was identified, and police have said there is no indication that other shooters were involved. but they haven't been able to formally rule out the possibility of further suspects just yet. but, of course, they have confirmed the tragic news that

there are several fatalities reported. the incident, of course, took place during a busy sunday afternoon at copenhagen mall, a popular shopping center in the city, and an area that is very close to one of the city's largest concert venues where pop star harry stiles had been due to perform. police say they are maintaining a heavy presence at the scene as their investigation continues. but the key question remains what was the motive behind this incident. i have to stress that the motive is still very much unclear, and the investigation remains ongoing. nada bashir, cnn, london. the city of akron , ohio, is on edge after police released video cam of the fatal shooting of a 25-year-old black man. the police chief said he suffered 60 gunshot wounds citing a medical examiner's report. the release of this information comes nearly a week after

officers tried to stop walker for an alleged traffic violation. cnn's paolo sandoval is following this case and the investigation into the officers' actions. >> reporter: authorities here vowing to proceed with the investigation with transparency and with scrutiny as well as it continues to look into the police shooting of jalen walker. authorities in the city of akron released 18 minutes worth of video. each minute basically offering a different perspective, showing those responding officers about eight total, before they opened fire, shooting and killing walker. investigators also over the weekend saying or sharing more about that possible perceived threat that provoked the lethal response from officers, including a single gunshot that came from inside of the car while police were chasing the vehicle that was being driven by walker. and it was shortly after that pursuit turned from a vehicle chase to a foot chase that you can see in the video clearly

those eight officers opened fire, a barrage of bullets. the police chief saying on sunday that those officers will have to account for each one of the shots that they fired. >> they need to be able to articulate what specific threats they were facing, and that goes for every round that goes down the barrel of their gun. and they need to be held to account. >> reporter: the investigation is now in the hands of state authorities here. both the walker family and a.p.d. maintain walker himself was unarmed at the time of the actual police shooting. so in the meantime, investigators continue to press on with the case as the people here in akron continue to call for accountability and for justice. as for the eight officers involved, they continue on paid administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation. paolo sandoval, cnn, akron , ohio. attorneys for jalen walker's family held a news conference after the footage was released

saying he had never broken the law during his life. no crimes of any kind. the family also wants the public to give peace, give dignity and give justice a chance for jalen. while the police investigation is underway. and there's been reaction from nba star and akron native lebron james who said he's praying for his city. his foundation also released a statement on twitter saying, in part, the case called for justice and accountability and a coming together to create change. still to come, parts of china tightened covid restrictions as new clusters begin to form. this as a positive case breaks through president xi jinping's strict protocol during his visit to hong kong. plus, what can battling the coronavirus teach us about responding to outbreaks of monkeypox? i'll speak with an expert after the short break. stay with us.

you don't know how much pressure you put on your septic system. but rid-x does. in a 21 month study, scientists proved that rid- x reduces up to 20% of waste build up every month. take the pressure off with rid-x. welcome back, everyone. well, a hong kong lawmaker photographed near chinese president xi jinping has tested positive for covid-19.

president xi visited the city last week during the 25th anniversary of hong kong's handover of britain to china. it was his first trip outside the mainland since the start of the pandemic. he joined lawmakers for photos commemorating the event. the person who tested positive says his test was negative on thursday when the photos were taken. cnn's senior international correspondent will ripley joins me now live from taipei. good to see you again, will. so, what more are you learning about this covid scare for china's president xi? >> reporter: i mean, look, if, if president xi's closed loop does not keep covid one row away from the president of the leader of china who is so paranoid about covid that people who want to be in his presence have to for several weeks before meeting him have a private car taken from their home back to their office, back to home, no public transportation, no unnecessary

outings, daily covid testing, a night in a quarantine hotel before meeting president xi -- if all of those precautions did not keep this hong kong lawmaker, steve ho chu yin from being covid positive and one row away from xi to prove this was the case, then what's going to work? how is china's zero covid policy going to work? they certainly have case numbers down to extraordinarily low levels considering they're a cun country of 1 1/2 billion people, less than 500 cases reported. the chance of getting struck lightning is greater than getting covid with 500 cases and 1 1/2 billion people. whenever a handful of cases pop up in a city, for example, an entire county is in lockdown for fewer than 300 cases and most of them don't even have symptoms. you have a city that's shutting down restaurants and shops and they're limiting hours for

public transportation. they're encouraging people to work from home over a few dozen cases. you're talking about a city of millions of people. people that have to stand in long lines and get tested for covid every few days, a negative qr code to get medicine for their relatives or go shopping. if people are going to have to live like that with such a small number of cases, given how contagious the omicron variant is, it shines a light on how much power xi jinping has because this is all political ideologically driven, critics say. it doesn't have a lot to do with science, rosemary. they say if you have high vaccination rates in high risk groups, which china does not among the elderly population, you can live with covid. most people will be asymptomatic, be mild and move on. that is not happening in beijing. one person said it might be five years of this, five years of

this for yesterday less than 500 cases in a country of 1 1/2 billion. >> just extraordinary and so draconian. will ripley joining us live from taipei. many thanks. u.s. health officials are growing more concerned with the ever increasing number of monkeypox cases. according to the u.s. centers for disease control and prevention, at least 460 probable or confirmed cases have been reported across 32 states. the biden administration announced the delivery of more vaccines as part of the nationwide strategy for preventing the disease. the cdc reports there have been more than 5700 cases of monkeypox worldwide. i want to turn now to the -- a senior scholar at johns hopkins center for health

security, emerging infectious disease and biosecurity preparedness. thank you for all that you do. >> thanks for having me. >> so, i just want to start with what lessons we have perhaps learned from the covid pandemic that might prove useful when it comes to monkeypox. >> the best lesson to take from covid-19 is that you need to be proactive with an infectious disease emergency to start to anticipate what's going to be the needs for public health agencies. and i fear that that lesson hasn't quite been learned because we are behind the 8 ball when it comes to monkeypox, that we are not as proactive as we need to be to contain this as quickly as possible. >> so, what more needs to be done at this juncture and where do things stand right now in terms of monkeypox vaccine production and distribution? >> well, you have to remember that the monkeypox vaccine is not something designed for monkeypox. it was designed for small pox.

which means it was something that was to be used during a biological weapons attack for small pox. the vaccine we're using is a second generation vaccine and there isn't much around because it was secondary designed for small pox. what we have is maybe a million or 2 million doses on hand for the world, and they are largely concentrated towards the united states. and i think what we have to figure out is what the optimal policy would be. is this to vaccinate high-risk people in exposures or take care of the problematic source and start vaccinating in the endemic countries in africa so we don't have monkeypox expourtations and target it at its root. if you're going to deal with monkeypox, it needs to be dealt with in africa first. >> it is daunting when only a million vaccines are available at this juncture. perhaps they will start to increase their production and

distribution. so, people, of course, are very weary of responding to covid, dropping the wearing of masks, even in the midst of high contagion. are they going to be open to any advice about avoiding infection of monkeypox, particularly when most people don't see it as a threat to them? >> thankfully monkeypox is not a very contagious disease. there is a tendency to see everything through the lens of covid-19, but you can't really do that when you're dealing with very different infectious disease problems. and though this monkeypox outbreak needs to be controlled, it's not something that poses the same threat that covid-19 did. it is not going to be specific recommendations for the general public other than people who are in very close contact with individuals with monkeypox. the thing is monkeypox is something we know how to contain. we have a safe and effective vaccine that works. it's gepting that vaccine into the hands of public health professionals that can implement a vaccination program to stop

this from spreading. it's not something that has pandemic potential, but it is something that has the potential to become out of control and possibly continue to transmit much longer than it needs to. so we really need to empower our public health agencies by giving them the vaccine, by getting more vaccine into people's arms. >> so what would be your advice to viewers now who fear that they may be in a group that would be more likely to be exposed to monkeypox? >> this current monkeypox outbreak is really exploiting social and sexual networks, particularly among men who have sex with men. if you're somebody that falls into that group that has these high-risk activities, that put you into contact with monkeypox, this is a group we want you to get vaccinated. i would encourage you to talk to your public health agency to see when vaccine becomes available. i would caution you to be careful when you're interacting with people who may or may not

have monkeypox. we know this is transmitting a typically. it is transmitting in sexual networks. we need them to be aware monkeypox is spreading amongst them. >> dr. amish adolger, thank you for joining us. >> thank you for having me. israel parliament doesn't trust itself to be in charge. now the u.s. govovernment is getting involved. if your moderate to severe crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis symptoms are stopping you in your tracks... choose stelara® from the start... d move toward relief after the first dose... with injections every twmonths. stelara® may increase your risk of infections,

troops had withdrawn from lysychansk, the last strong hold in the luhansk region. they likely control the entire region which will allow them to shift their focus to efforts to seize control of the wider donbas. now, this all comes as officials from around the world are gathering in switzerland to hash out plans to rebuild ukraine once the fighting stops. but the task before them is, of course, daunting. reconstruction is expected to cost hundreds of billions of dollars. meanwhile, reuters is reporting that turkish authorities have detained a russian cargo ship carrying what ukraine says is stolen grain. ukraine has previously accused russia of stealing grain in the territories it forces -- its forces have seized. we want to bring in claire sebastian. she joins us from london. good morning, claire.

what more have you learned about this? a russian cargo ship carrying stolen grain and it was detained by turkey. what happens next? >> reporter: this would appear part of a pattern, the black sea is blockaded and ukraine is unable to export its grain. cnn has been able to track the ship allegedly smuggling ukrainian grain russia is trying to export as its own grain. what is worth reporting citing the ambassador from turkey saying the turkish authorities have detained the ship. it's a russian-flagged ship. it's been seen by reuters reporters a kilometer from the coast, the turkish port on the black sea. according to ukraine, it contains stolen grain. the foreign ministry official told reuters the first cargo of grain was picked up in the ukrainian, but now russian-controlled port which is

on the sea just west of mariupol and has apparently traveled from there to the turkish coast. what ukraine wants is for the grain to be confiscated. according to the ambassador of ukraine -- to turkey, there will be a meeting with investigators on monday. they are pushing for it to be confiscated. it steps up the urgency for the international community's efforts to try to unblockade the black sea, get ukraine's grain out to where it needs to be exported to. meanwhile this is causing food insecurity in some of the most vulnerable parts of the world. >> we will continue to watch this story close. claire sebastian joining us live from london. many thanks. the u.s. is directly involved in the death of palestinian-american reporter. she was covering the military when she was killed by gunfire. the u.s. government has been urging the palestinians for weeks to turnover the bullet

that killed her. cnn's hadas gold has the latest now from jerusalem. >> reporter: nearly two months after al jazeera correspondent was killed, we may be getting closer as to who fired the fatal shot. over the weekend the palestinian authority handed the bullet that killed abu akleh over to the u.s. embassy in jerusalem. although the palestinian authority attorney general said they had been given many guarantees by the americans that the bullet would not be given to the israelis, spokesperson for the israel defense forces said they were going to work with the americans to conduct a forensic investigation. the palestinian authority has denied request to hold a joint investigation with the israelis, saying they can't trust the israelis. the idf said the bullet is in the hands of a senior american general who will be present throughout the entire duration of the investigation. the idf spokesperson said the results should be released soon, and that if the investigation

showed that an israeli soldier killed abu akleh, they will take responsibility and be apologetic. authorities did not request comments about the bullet in investigation. several investigations by news organizations including cnn as well as by the united nations human rights office have found it is most likely that abu akleh was killed by israeli fire and not by gunfire from palestinian militants as naftali bennett initially suggested. the u.s. embassy in jerusalem has thus far declined to comment. hadas gold, cnn, jerusalem. >> in pakistan, at least 19 people are dead after a passenger bus plunged into a ravine. the bus slid off the side of a mountain and fell into a ditch. officials say at least a dozen other people were injured and rushed to a nearby hospital. it is still unclear what caused the crash.

welcome back, everyone. the u.s. house committee investigating the january 6th attack on the capitol is forging ahead making its case that responsibility for what happened that day goes straight to the top. former white house aide cassidy hutchinson delivered block buster testimony last week. remarkable moments include her accounts of a furious donald trump demanding to be taken to the capitol. and his clear understanding that some in the crowd were armed. cnn's zachary cohen looks at

what other bombshells could lie ahead. >> reporter: the house select committee investigating the january 6th insurrection could make multiple criminal referrals, including one of former president donald trump. now, that's what the panel's vice chair congresswoman liz cheney said in the interview on sunday where she made it clear that the committee may recommend that the justice department bring criminal charges against trump himself. take a listen to what she said on abc on sunday. >> so, did the committee will or will not make a criminal referral? >> we'll make a decision as a committee about it. >> there could be a referral, effectively the committee saying he should be prosecuted and this is the evidence -- >> the justice department doesn't have to wait for the committee to make a criminal referral. there could be more than one criminal referral. >> reporter: cheney's remarks come days after explosive testimony of former white house aide cassidy hutchinson who said trump grew angry when he was told by secret service detail he could not accompany protesters

on january 6. it comes as additional hearings promise to reveal even more evidence connected to trump on the violent attack that day. the committee's investigation continues. congressman adam kinzinger, the other republican serving on the january 6 committee, said witnesses have come forward since cassidy hutchinson's testimony last week. >> every day we get new people that come forward and say, hey, i didn't think maybe this piece of a story i knew was important, but now that you guys -- like, i do see this plays in here. but, yeah, i mean, look, she is going to go down in history as -- i mean, people can forget the names of every one of us on the committee. they will not forget her name. by the way, she doesn't want that. she doesn't want to be out in the public spotlight. but she has a commitment to truth. >> will we hear from witnesses you did not know about, stories you did not hear because of the hearing so far? >> yes, yes, there will be -- there is -- there will be way more information and stay tuned. >> reporter: now, kinzinger and

other members of the committee have been reluctant to offer details about new witnesses and new revelation that's could come out in future hearings. it's clear the panel is continuing to make the case there is one man who bears overwhelming responsibility for the january 6 attack, and that man is donald trump. zachary cohen, cnn, washington. the white house is downplaying president joe biden's upcoming meetings with the saudi crown prince during his trip to the middle east later this month. cnn's arlette saenz has more now from washington. >> reporter: with president biden set to travel to saudi arabia later this month, the white house continues to try to downplay the significance of the meeting between president biden and prince mohammed bin salman. it comes as they seek to engage with the crown prince as president biden as a candidate promised to make the country a pariah state for the murder of "washington post" columnist jamal khashoggi, which the u.s.

intelligence community determined the crown prince directly ordered to occur. as the president is preparing to travel there, the saudis have said the president will be sitting for official talks with the crown prince while the white house insists this is simply going to be part of a larger bilateral discussion that the president is having with the country's king. take a listen to what national security council spokesperson john kirby had to say on sunday. >> the president will have a bilateral discussion with king salman and his leadership team and, of course, the crown prince is on that leadership team. as you heard the president say, he certainly expects to see the crown prince in the context of that bilateral discussion. >> reporter: the president's trip does mark a major reversal after he as a candidate had promised to make the saudi arabia a pariah state. but there have been other interests that have come into play, including russia's war against ukraine and the need to produce more oil, as energy and

gas prices continue to spike worldwide. now, the president has said that he is not going to directly ask gulf leaders to produce more oil, but that is an issue that will be discussed during these meetings. the president has outlined that his trip will be a broader focus, including security issues in the region, but much of the attention that will be paid will be to whatever conversations the president has with the crown prince who he had once vowed to isolate over that brutal murder of the "washington post" columnist jamal khashoggi. arlette saenz, cnn, the white house. when it comes to their politics, they live on totally opposite sides of the united states. yet, a rivalry has grown between two big-name governors. democrat gavin newsom of california and florida's republican governor ron desantis. newsome is running for reelection this november, and his campaign produced an ad that's airing in florida

targeted squarely at desantis. take a look. >> freedom, it's under attack in your state. your republican leaders, they're banning books, making it harder to vote, restricting speech in classrooms, even criminalizing women and doctors. i urge all of you living in florida to join the fight or join us in california. >> so, how does picking a fight with desantis benefit newsome in california? cnn's senior reporter edward isaac told our congressional correspondent ryan nobles the thinking behind this move. >> he says, ron desantis is the target here because ron desantis is the poster child for what republicans are becoming and what it is in a post-trump politics. he said, we're as different as daylight and darkness to me, and he really wants to draw that contrast out and do it as aggressively as possible. >> reporter: it's interesting newsome not long ago was facing

a recall challenge. he's obviously come out of this more politically emboldened he can feel confident enough to run ads in florida during his reelection bid. >> he he can light money on fire if that's what he wants to do. the ad is airing on fox on july 4th. it is focused on the idea of freedom, redefining the term into something democrats should be talking about again. there is a lot of interest in both of these players as potential leaders of party. i think it's because it's not just who they are, but what they are leading, what they're represent being in the country. ron desantis has a very clear governing agenda, and gavin newsom has a clear governing agenda. they do not match up at all. in a country divided trying to figure out which one we are going for, you can see in a lot of ways we're deciding between a newsome-style, california-style approach or what is the

desantis-florida style approach. >> and that was ryan nobles speaking with edward isaac dabir. in california, a racial in justice from decades ago has finally been corrected. a piece of prime beachfront land has been returned to the descendants of the original black owners of the property. cnn's stephanie elam has that story. >> reporter: for decades this beautiful california beach held shameful secrets of racism and wrongdoing. stretched out as a physical reminder of how charles and willa bruce were harassed and robbed of their property nearly 100 years ago when the city of manhattan beach seized bruce's beach. >> all we knew is we were going to step up and speak out and make sure the people never forgot this wrong. >> reporter: a wrong the county of los angeles began working to fix last year culminating with the board of supervisors unanimously voting this week. >> motion carries 5-0.
