1:01 am
it's monday july 18th. lawmakers have released a 77-page report outlining a series of missteps by multiple law enforcement agencies who responded to that school shooting at robb elementary school in may, including failures to adhere to their active shooter training and prioritizing the lives of the victims. the scathing report says
1:02 am
authorities who responded to the scene displayed, quote, an overall lackadaisical approach. and while investigators say they didn't find evidence of malice, they did find, quote, egregious poor decisionmaking. the majority were from the u.s. border patrol and from the texas department of public safety. one texas state representative says the report contains difficult truths. >> it's hard to hear that there were multiple systemic failures because we want to tell ourselves that systems work. we want to tell ourselves there's one person we can point our fingers at. we want to tell ourselves that this won't happen again. that's just not true. what happened here is complicated. but there's also a call to action in this report because systems are something that we can and must improve.
1:03 am
>> the report said that uvalde's school district police chief pete arradondo did not believe he was in command, even though he listed himself as incident commander. a major problem with the response was a lack of leadership among law enforcement. investigators also found that the school itself was inadequately prepared for this kind of situation. the report also found similar problems that other schools within the district and committee members had harsh words for the police responders. >> the officer who's knew or should've known that they was an active shooter situation by their training should have done more. >> the report says if you're not willing to put the lives of the people you serve of those children before your own, in my view, you should find another job. >> families of the victims at robb elementary got copies of the damning report.
1:04 am
uvalde mayor don mclackin was furious at the findings. >> this investigation has been little bitty leaks here and there. and we've spent our time trying to do it.
1:05 am
is because they are succeeding the ground now. that's our children and the two teachers. >> now we have a troubling look at the official response. cnn got early access. one that. we must warn you, what you're about to see is disturbing and contains strong language. >> reporter: new body cam video review leased by the uvalde mayor shows a frantic first moments police arrived on scene robb elementary. this video taken by uvalde police sergeant daniel coronado as he made his way inside the building. within moments more gunshots.>> shots fired inside the building. >> which building?
1:06 am
1:07 am
>> take cover, guys. >> reporter: after taking cover outside sergeant coronado gives his first update on the situation to responding officers. >> okay, guys. he is inside this building. we have him contained. he is going to be in the building on the west side of the property. careful with the windows facing east. right there. >> reporter: minutes later coronado tells us that's what he believes is happening, that that command is in one of the school's offices come in not a classroom.>> the subject is in the school on the west side of the building. he is contained. we have multiple officers inside the building at this time. we believe he is barricaded in one of the offices. >> reporter: as minutes continued to tick by the emergency first seen by the
1:08 am
initial response fades away. instead, uvalde police officers are seen hunkering down, waiting for more back up critical moments pass by at a time children were still alive in the classroom. at one point you can hear sergeant coronado asking for permission to open a door into the hallway. were armed officers are already inside. >> officers inside the building. mi clear to open the door here on the south side of the building? >> reporter: after this moment we learn uvalde consolidated independent school district police chief, pete arredondo, is inside the building. other officers crowd around looking for guidance. arredondo has been a central figure in the states investigation of the shooting. the dps director calling his actions on the day of the massacre a, quote, abject failure. as more officers arrive and more in action you can hear police begin to seek direction. >> what are we doing here? >> reporter: we have video from officer justin mendoza who also
1:09 am
arrived on the scene. at 11:58 local time police helped the first students and teachers from a nearby classroom escape the building. at the same time sergeant coronado can be seen helping children escape from a window outside. at this point it had been nearly 25 minutes since police first entered the building. more than 12 minutes later we get our first limbs of chief arredondo in the hallway at robb elementary. you can hear him pleading with the gunmen to give up, but seemingly unaware that children may still be inside the classroom. >> this could be peaceful. >> reporter: moments later a critical piece of the puzzle in the camera of officer mendoza. 911 dispatch gives an account from a student still in the classroom. >> we have a child on the line.
1:10 am
>> what was that? >> he is in the room at this moment. >> reporter: gets, even with that information six minutes go by without any sort of response. then we see arredondo with a set of keys trying and failing to make entry into a classroom near where the gun man is barricaded. eventually, hitting the keys off to another officer who does make entry. more heavily armored officers arrive, but no one gives the order to go in. suddenly, a new round of gunfire. again, trying to talk to the shooter. >> can you hear me? >> reporter: minutes later -- >> sir, if you can hear me please put your firearm down. we don't want anybody else hurt. >> we are trying to get him out. soon after no response police still stand around without much
1:11 am
urgency. over the course of the next nearly 30 minutes we see more officers arrive. the video obtained by cnn cuts out moments before police breached the classroom and killed the shooter at 12:51 local time. by then many young, innocent children and their two teachers were dead. cnn, uvalde, texas. >> that's hard to watch. three people were killed and two others injured during a shooting at a shopping mall in a suburb of indianapolis, indiana. and local police chief revealed some details about the suspect. >> we have what appears to be one shooter. it looks to be an adult male. we have not identified him yet. we do not have a motive yet. it appears he had a rifle with several magazines of ammunition . entered the food court and began shooting. >> the police chief praised the training his agency had on mass
1:12 am
shootings, but added the suspected gunman was killed by a 22-year-old described as a good samaritan with a handgun that was inside the mall. the victim believed to be in their 20s and 30s. here's how one witness described what happened. >> we heard four gunshots. i looked up and saw the carousel across multiview was breaking down. you hear about six more shots and you see everybody running. it was very scary but very traumatic. lots of crying and lots of not knowing where the shooting was coming from. >> police are still investigating what led up to the shooting. a major shakeup in kyiv. on sunday ukrainian president volodomyr zelenskyy fired two top government officials, citing accusations of treason within their organizations. >> today i made a decision to remove the prosecutor general
1:13 am
from office and to dismiss the head of security of ukraine. >> mr. zelenskyy says he lost faith in their leadership after many of their subordinates were accused of treason and collaborating with russia. she did not disclose whether the fired officials themselves are under investigation. he also announced the former regional head of the security service in crimea who was fired at the start of the war has now been detained on suspicion of treason. the shakeup comes as more russian missiles, eastern ukraine over the weekend, this was a scene in one town where ukraine said strike left at least one person dead and 14 wounded. russian forces has been focusing much of their firepower in the east, part of a push to seize control of the entire donbas region. it, there is little sign russia is gaining ground. ukraine's military said it had thwarted several attempts to advance.
1:14 am
even far away from the front lines safety is never a guarantee. as cnn's ivan watson reports. >> reporter: russia is raining rockets and missiles down on ukrainian cities. the campaign of long-distance violence carried out daily. in the last week the russian military hurled deadly weapons at multiple cities and towns. the july 14th strike on the central city of they need to took place midmorning on a thursday, the attack killed at least 24 people, including children and wounded many more. the russian military is also firing your daily salvos at places like the front-line city of nikolai a. it seems like these scenes are becoming commonplace across ukraine. reality is, any time, any place a deadly russian missile could come crashing into your building.
1:15 am
the governor here accuses the russian military of firing repurposed s 300 surface-to-air missiles at his city. >> it is like a strategy of russia to scare civilian people , so make panic. >> reporter: in recent days missiles hit a hotel, hospital, two universities, and this elementary school. the deputy principal says this part of the school was built more than a century ago. look what is left of it. the missile strikes hit far from zones of active combat in committees like the southern port city of odessa that can
1:16 am
otherwise, sometimes, feel relatively safe. there was no obvious sign of ukrainian military presence at the national university of shipbuilding in nikolai of targeted by at least four missiles on friday. >> if they want to scare us with terrorism it won't work, this residence has. >> reporter: some people will leave for their safety, but those who are ready to sacrifice everything for the defense of our country will stay, he says. ukraine is carrying out its own devastating long-distance strikes with the help of long- range weapons systems provided by the u.s. and other western allies. repeatedly pounding what kyiv claims was a russian ammunition depot in the russian occupied town of this month. an attack that moscow claimed killed at least six and wounded many more. those lucky to survive left to pick up the pieces. victims of a vicious war with no end in sight. ivan watson, cnn, ukraine.
1:17 am
let's bring in the cnn joining me now here in the studio. the russians are still continuing to target nikolai of in their attempt to push west. we are also hearing of russia preparing for the next stage of their offensive after this operational pause. what can you tell us about that? >> what we are hearing what we are seeing is rush is struggling to move forward. ever since it retook the biggest stronghold in the beginning of july the front-line hasn't moved much but we are hearing today to you, and military says it has tortured several regions for russia to move forward in the donbas. it's fighting hard to take that remaining territory and struggling to do so. in the south what we have is ukraine is really pushing to try to retake some of those occupied territories. today ukraine says it claims to have hit more ammunition sites in
1:18 am
the west of mariupol, a key area that russia occupied in the early days. russia is ready to fight back against that. we see evidence that russia is bolstering its troop presence in the south, which will take some of the attention of the east as well. is fighting hard into areas where you see it is sitting areas across the country. >> areas not on the front-line. areas targeting civilians, as we saw last week. to the firing of those government officials, this is because shakeup in the zelenskyy government since the war began. how problematic has what has emerged here thwarted ukraine's war effort? >> what you're seeing is serious concerns. there trying to teach areas that would have been held by russia where they might be see collaboration among the ranks. two key officials come really high ranking, high-profile officials. a ubiquitous figure is spearheading the war crimes investigations. dozens, if not
1:19 am
hundreds in ukraine. she has been dismissed. yvonne conniff, a childhood friend, a key player in his election campaign, there was a picture zelenskyy posted on his facebook page in 2019 calling him part of the dream team. clearly, not anymore. now the former head of the main director of the security service in crimea now detained. he comes up on suspicion of treason. the others not treason themselves, it was because of agencies in their divisions accused of this. the former head of security in crimea.>> everyone who together with them was part of a criminal group that worked in the interest of the russian federation will also be held accountable. it is about the transfer of secret information to the enemy and other facts of cooperation with the russian special services. >> an official was dismissed in
1:20 am
the early days of the conflict. zelenskyy saying he believes it's good and he made the right decision. this is something they're not only cracking down on, but trying to send a warning shot as a try to retake those areas. >> important these figures were reached. thank you for the latest. still ahead, a preview of what could be the final public hearing by the general sixth committee investigating the u.s. capital riot sweep millions in the u.s. are under heat alerts. we will go to the cnn weather center with details on what to expect in the coming week.

1:24 am
welcome back. it's going to be another busy week for the january 6th committee. their eighth, and potentially final, public hearing is scheduled for thursday. they are expected to give a minute by minute account of what then-president donald trump did and did not do for 3 hours wife the capitol right took place. katelyn has the preview.
1:25 am
>> reporter: 187 minutes but that is the story the house select committee plans until in their prime-time hearing on thursday 187 minutes where they say donald trump did not -- on january 6. one of the committee members on cbs face the nation sunday said trump was gleefully watching television in the west wing, seeing the capitol fall. representative elaine gloria on cnn described the focus of the upcoming hearing this way. >> we will go through minute by minute during that timeframe from the time they left the stage at the ellipse and came back to the white house. and really sat in the white house, in the dining room, with his advisers urging him continuously to take more action. not only was it a situation of not doing anything, a one point the infamous tweet at 1:24, he actually egged people on by saying vice president pins didn't have the --.
1:26 am
>> the congressional sessions we have seen so far about january 6 at about had donald trump and those around him schemed to block the election results. this is not the end of the committee's investigation. kinzinger said thursday this is just the end of the first hearings. more could come when the house committee releases a report of their findings later. when that will be is still not known but that is because this is an ongoing investigation and committee members are saying they are getting new information and hearing from the witnesses every single day. even this week we understand the secret service, that agency that had personnel up close next to trump as a dan folded, they plan to turnover subpoena text messages from agent's phones on january 5th and sixth after house members grew concerned last week about whether secret service phone data have been lost. we will see what happens there. cnn, washington. two committee members say they expect the panel will receive those secret service text messages by tuesday.
1:27 am
daily hot topic for the sunday morning talk shows. have a listen. >> an agency that was such a key part of our history seemed they had done everything possible to analyze those records to determine what kind of things went right or went wrong that day. in their practices and procedures. and we are looking into this but that's why we are subpoenaing them. as far as digital records and text messages, snapping an i.t expert, but i do understand there's a lot of things that could be done. a lot of analysis and recouping of data. we want to make sure we understand the bottom line. where are these text messages? can they be recovered? their legal records we need to see. >> you have them. we need them. we expect to get them by this tuesday. we will see. >> and all the text messages. >> we need all the texts from the fifth and the sixth of january. >> they claim it was this technological change. we moved everything and lost these text but they also put out a statement that said we
1:28 am
have only lost some and everything relevant to this investigation has been turned over. those are very conflicting statements. we decided as a committee, let's request these by tuesday and we can make a decision. i will say this, in the very least, it is quite crazy that the secret service would actually end up deleting anything related to one of the more infamous days in american history, particularly when it comes to the role of the secret service. >> jury selection begins in the coming hours in the trier of steve bannon he's accused of failing to testify and turn over documents to the january 6th committee and has pleaded not guilty. the judge rejected his second request to delete this start dates. the judge also said he will decide whether the jury can hear about ben's recent offer to cooperate with the committee. ban's lawyers says he might be called to testify in his own defense. the dangerous heat wave sweeping through western europe could soon bring record highs to the uk.

1:33 am
texas. report states there was an overall lackadaisical approach to the shooting and no real law- enforcement command, despite many offices being on the scene. law-enforcement analysts reacted to the report. >> the widely accepted, widely trained approach to these active shooter incidents as the first responders on scene, whether it is the chief of police for the lowliest beat comp, grab the weapon that you have in your car, coordinate with whoever else is there with you. if you are by yourself then you go to the sound of the gun and try to take that shooter out. you try to kill that person before they can kill or hurt other victims. it is inexplicable that this massive team of law enforcement from multiple agencies with heavy body armor and long guns, ar 15s and eventually, multiple ballistic shields never took
1:34 am
that crucial action. you see it's hard to watch that video. you keep asking yourself, what are they doing? they don't even appear to be really acting with any purpose. it's incredible. >> texas lawmakers who conducted the investigation say law enforcement wasted precious time in prioritizing their own safety over the victims. suite wildfires are raging across northern morocco as emergency crews raced to tame the flames. in one province on the atlantic officials say maybe 1400 families from 19 villages have been evacuated. the morocco military is sending reinforcements to battled the blaze is. this as dangerous heat strike parts of western europe. the uk here is bracing for possible record high temperatures tomorrow and today. things look so bad british officials held a crisis meeting, a so-called cobra
1:35 am
session to address the heat. authorities have issued their first-ever read extreme heat warning for parts of the uk. things aren't looking any better across the channel in western france. officials there to their highest temperature alert for 15 departments on sunday. the heat is making it even harder to battle several wildfires. the u.s. is also seeing high temperatures. we will get the details from our meteorologist in just a moment. first, i want to go to rome. europe baking right now. we know we are not used for anything quite like this. >> that's why. a relentless continuation of high temperatures. it doesn't get cool at night. we have seen wildfires we have droughts in the north of italy. all these sorts of things come when this country, like many countries in europe, are trying to save energy. running your air conditioning
1:36 am
right now is daunting for people don't know if they will be able to afford these higher energy prices. tourists baking in the sun. a couple were arrested for swimming in a fountain overnight. just anything people can do to keep cool. it is dangerous for the elderly. people who are vulnerable are in tough shape right now, because they can't cool off. >> understandably. that is the main concern or major concern right now. this is, clearly, climate change and action. how long can we expect this current heat wave to last? what are you seeing? >> a couple more days. by the time we get to wednesday afternoon dramatic changes, at least for the northern tier where they are not accustomed to the excessive heat. right now the conditions across the south and west are beginning to expand further toward the north. climatological, whether in north america or across europe as around ouch july into august it's typically when the hottest
1:37 am
temperatures of the year are observed even by the hottest temperature of the year standards, spain, the middle 30 celsius, generally, 87, 89 degrees or so fahrenheit is what is expected this time of year. temperatures have been about 100 to 104 or 44 degrees across some of these areas. a pretty impressive run of excessive heat that is expanding toward the north. 26 is average this time degrees celsius in france. 40s widespread across the region. an incredible run of heat in place. we expect paris to knock on the doors of 40 degrees, which averages about 104 fahrenheit. london about 37, 100 fahrenheit temperatures that happen very rarely across this region. even along the english channel we had an observation there of 32 celsius, that's around 91, 92 degrees fahrenheit. an incredible heatwave in place with a 50% chance that will exceed 40 celsius across portions of manchester, london
1:38 am
but that has never happen. a red warning has also never been an issue. the highest level of concern for excessive heat. 80% chance we will see record temperatures. you will notice, widespread coverage of heat begins to break down as early as wednesday into thursday. we do think at least the northern tier gets a break over the coming several days. lending goes from that incredible run of heat back down into the 20s, in line with seasonal averages and even a chance of rain showers friday afternoon. across the u.s. no such luck. big-time heat across an expansive area of the central united states. about 28 million americans under heat alert with heat indices also into the lower 40s, which sits in line with about 10521 10, depending on where you are to again from. this factors in the humidity. in the shaded feels this warm but very little changes. just about everyone in orange or yellow. very little green or yellow. that is where we are at in the
1:39 am
middle portion of july. temperatures there in chicago going up to 32 over the next few hours. incredible heat across the central and mid-june, rather, mid july in u.s. >> sweltering temperatures across the northern hemisphere. thank you very much. a deepening crisis in sri lanka. and national public emergency has been declared whilst the country waits for parliament to hold nominations for a new president. cnn's will ripley is there. >> reporter: on the ground in colombo you understand the anger when you wait and one of the cues just to get fuel. imagine waiting for 8 days to fill up your tank. that's next.
1:40 am
it's started. somewhere between a cuddle and a struggle, it's...the side hug. tween milestones like this may start at age 9. hpv vaccination - a type of cancer prevention against certain hpv-related cancers, can start then too. for most, hpv clears on its own. but for others, it can cause certain cancers later in life. you're welcome! now, as the "dad cab", it's my cue to help protect them. embrace this phase. help protect them in the next.
1:41 am
ask their doctor about hpv vaccination today.
1:42 am
1:43 am
hello, welcome back. in the uk certain members of parliament will vote in the coming hours to eliminate another candidate as boris johnson's successor. right now there are five contaminants vying to be the next prime minister. the contest has a long way to go. after monday's vote members apartment will keep voting and eliminating candidates with the least support until there are just two left. from there card-carrying members of the conservative party, about 200,000 people, will vote for johnson's successor. sri lanka's acting president has declared a nationwide public emergency. he made the proclamation in the interest of public security after protests over the countries deepening economic crisis but this move comes as parliament is set to hold nominations for a new president on tuesday. will ripley is following two elements from sri lanka's
1:44 am
capital city and joints we now. it's good to have you on the ground there. before we get to the situation on the ground and the people you have been speaking to, we know the process of electing a new president has begun. we know current acting president has been nominated as a candidates by the ruling party. shirley, that is something sri lankan people are not going to stand for, given everything we have seen. >> reporter: yeah. exactly right but there's this real disconnect, it seems, between the parliament, which is heavily stacked in favor of the acting president coming to present for the remainder of the exile president's term. his presidency ended when his residence, a couple of blocks from where i'm standing, was stormed by more than 100,000 people but that's how big the crowd was out here. people furious about the indignant way they have to live their lives when they are
1:45 am
talking about these hours and days long waits for the basic necessities of life. more on that in a moment, there is another large protest scheduled for tomorrow. protesters wanting to make it clear how they feel to the members of parliament who will select the next resident for sri lanka on wednesday. the people's power is what caused the resignation of one unpopular president. for this protest be enough to shift the votes in parliament and have them select somebody that people here feel can actually bring about badly needed change? that's the big question. that state of emergency needs police, like these officers here and military personnel can be deployed quickly to suppress anything that is deemed to be unruly but not peaceful. of course, occupying government buildings, setting the acting president's house on fire last weekend, which is what happened, certainly, might be motivation for these military officials and police to be dispatched. the anchor on the ground is understandable when you stand
1:46 am
in one of these cues. we did that. we visited people who were waiting more than a week just to get fuel for their vehicles. >> will, you say they are queuing for fuel. what about food supplies, medical supplies? >> reporter: i'm sorry, i thought we were going to roll a piece there that show you what we experienced. let me set the scene. we had to drive around about three different gas stations in colombo the other day to find one that was open. we could tell the gas station was open, because there was a line of cars stretching several blocks and snaking around as far as the eye could see. this serpentine queue of tech talks, motorcycles, cars, larger vehicles that were commercial vehicles that were needed to deliver goods. all of these were waiting,
1:47 am
essentially, for this one gas station that was open to turn on the pumps when the pumps were turned on we saw fights break out. we interviewed a guy who just graduated from high school who has to trade days sleeping in the car with his dad. this is his summer after graduation and he spends most of his nights sleeping in the car. he had to wait about a two days before he could fuel up the car, because and he got to the front of the line all the police officers moved in. in unmarked vehicles family members filled up. everybody has to sit and wait for the gas to open again. they have a phone chain to let each other know in shifts, those that are sleeping waiting there all day, and let the other people know to come back and get in your car moving forward. the line is moving pick same situation for food the same situation for medicine. we saw a woman who is pregnant with a fever getting pushed by her husband and friends to get
1:48 am
to the hospital where she would have to wait for hours to get medicine to help with her fever. that's why the protests are happening here. we will see what happens tomorrow. and after wentz's vote in parliament to select a new president:i know you will be watching out for us. it gives you an idea as to why people came out in the streets and have done what they have done. why there has been so much unrest given what you have seen. will ripley, thank you very much . there live at the capitol. parts of asia overcome by new waves of covid infections and sweltering heat but the latest on how they're trying to slow the spread and keep cool. after the break. lactaid ice cree creamy, real ice cream you love that will never mess with your stomach. lactaid ice cream. the minions arare coming to ihop. with an all new w menu you're going to love. ♪ ♪ excuse me!

covid cases are on the rise in the u.s. as a highly transmissible ba.5 variant becomes dominant. according to john hopkins university average daily cases have tripled over the past three months but the u.s. health department says hospital admissions due to covid have surpassed 40,000 for the first time in about four months. the top covid expert at the white house says our current tools like vaccinations, tests, and masking are still effective against this latest variance.
1:53 am
>> public health science is very clear. if you are in a crowded indoor space, especially if it's borlee ventilated, wearing a mask reduces your risk of infection and spreading it to others. we have to continue to encourage people to do that. we have been doing a lot to make testing widely available. a really good way of slowing down the spread. encouraging people to get vaccinated and get up-to-date on their vaccines. as i said earlier, if you end up having a breakthrough infraction treated, because we don't want people ending up in the hospital. treatments are working really well. >> chinese officials are rolling out additional mass testing and parts of the country the covid infections are on the rise. more than 500 new local cases reported on monday, despite the adherence to a strict zero covid policy beijing has become known for enforcing. it comes as a sweltering heat wave is sweeping through the region. blake essig joins me for more here from tokyo.
1:54 am
