3:02 am
attack in ukraine. >> several were killed and dozens wounded in zaporizhzhia last night. another local official says two kids are among the wounded. fortunately, though, we understand their injuries are not life threatening. images show this smoldering fire and rubble after the attack. >> this after after the explosion of the bridge linking crimea and the russian land. images show the bridge before and after the blast. the ukrainians celebrated the explosion without accepting responsibility. >> we take you to fredrik plight
3:03 am
ag >> they believe that the missiles launched in zaporizhzhia that they were launched by aircraft. those were cruise missiles, some of them launched from strategic bombers. you can really see the russians not pulling any punches when it comes to hitting that major population center, putting a lot of civilians in danger with that as well. those videos that we've seen from the scene overnight obviously devastating. you can see those very large soviet area residential buildings some of them partially flattened and the ukrainians coming out, and it comes just days after that city was already hit and some residential buildings struck by rockets or missiles partially collapsed there as well killing 11. so certainly that town of zaporizhzhia very much under fire and all of this just a day after the crimea bridge was hit by an explosion. we have as the ukrainians and
3:04 am
russians continue to point the finger at one another. there is no doubt this is a huge blow to russia's logistics in southern ukraine. here's where we're looking. a devastating blow to vladimir putin's war effort in ukraine both strategically and symbolically. the bridge that links russia's mainland to crimea on fire. >> translator: according to preliminary information, a truck exploded on the automobile part of the crimean bridge in the morning today, which caused seven fuel tanks to ignite on a train heading towards the crimea peninsula. as a result, two lanes partially collapsed. >> this cctv video appears to show the moment of the blast. a truck is seen driving on the
3:05 am
lane when all of a sudden there was a massive explosion. it not clear whether it was the truck that blew up. russian officials say several were killed in the attack. moscow pointing the finger at ukraine but so far no claim of responsibility from kyiv's leadership. crimea, the bridge, everything illegal must be destroyed, everything stolen must be returned to ukraine and occupied by russia must be expelled. videos released on social media show long lines forming at gas stations on the peninsula just hours after the blast. the crimea bridge is a vital supply artery for russian forces fighting in ukraine but it's also a prestige project for russian president vladimir putin. putin personally drove a truck across the bridge when it was opened in 2018. the attack came just a day after putin's 70th birthday, leading
3:06 am
ukraine's national security adviser to release video apparently mocking the leader. ♪ happy birthday, mr. president ♪ residents of the capitol taking self- selfies in front of the bridge. >> we are very satisfied it's finally open. >> reporter: they got the railway open up and going quickly but the damage to the road section is more extensive, creating another bottle neck fo russian forces already struggling will logistics. >> by now the russians are saying some cars are able to get across that bridge but only one lane is open in both directions, which means it's a trickle in what you normally having going across that bridge. this remains a huge bottleneck
3:07 am
for russians and a big logistical problem for their forces in southern ukraine. >> a strategic and symbolic blow to the russians. >> let's talk more about this. joining us is cnn military analyst and retired air force colonel cedric layton. always good to see you. let's talk about this latest rocket attack in zaporizhzhia. do upyou see that to be a direc response in russia to the destruction of the bridge? >> i do. i think the russians are responding with the kinds of forces they have available in order to send a message to the civilian population in ukraine in a there will be a response to anything that the ukrainian government does to the russian supply lines, the russian military. this is something unfortunately you is to be expected. >> just to extend on what fredrik pleitgen was reporting
3:08 am
on, it's quite a large setback for putin. we know the explosion. bridge that connects russia to ukraine, obviously a big setback, especially for russia's ability to move hardware into ukraine. how do you expect putin to adjust to this? >> it going to be difficult for him to do this, amrara. what they need to do is resupply by sea as much as they possibly can. they do have some land capabilities from russia itself into the eastern part of the donbas region, which then connects now via the land bridge that they've made in the wake of their invasion to crimea and to other parts of the occupied territories. so they can do this but they are going to -- in essence, it's truncated. it's very limited to what they can do. they will be able to resupply
3:09 am
some of their element with the reopening of parts of the bridge, they can probably withstand some of this disruption but it going to be a bit more difficult for them to move stuff to the front lines and have an impact operationally in a military sense. >> ukraine hasn't officially claimed responsibility for that, although we've seen hints of the fact that they could be behind it, especially with the media posts, the social media post of marilyn monroe mocking putin just before his 70th birthday basically implying this was a gift to putin right before his birthday. do you have any doubt that the ukrainians were behind this? >> well, my doubts are minimized, let's just say that. it is certainly possible that somebody else was involved. but whatever they're doing, they're doing it in support of the ukrainian war effort. and it's pretty clear that this was done as part of a strategic
3:10 am
plan to limit the russian supply effort and also to have a major psychological impact on the russians. and as such it's really a brilliant move from an operational stand point. >> i'm curious. i was looking at the images, especially the aerials. its huge. what kind of preparation, what kind of intelligence would one need to pull this off? >> it's pretty precise intelligence for something like this. it part of what we would call a target preparation package. and what they would do is they would understand things like the type of tensile strength of the metals involved in building the bridge. how thick the concrete is, where the weak points are and the fact
3:11 am
that it would happen just as a train was coming through that y area, whether or not the explosion was on the train or the truck or underneath the bridge, that's all something that further investigation would have to bear out but the timing of the was absolutely perfect from an operational perspective and the fact that they did this, they not only buckled lanes of traffic going into crimea, but it also impacted the rail service and that was exactly what you would want to do in a case like this. >> and you alluded to psychological warfare. we were saying symbolically this was also a major setback. this was a bridge that opened in 2018, putin, it was a source of immense pride for him. i think he did that four years after illegally annexing crimea. emotionally and mentally that's a huge blow to him as well.
3:12 am
>> we want to pivot to asia now. this morning tensions are continuing to rise. both south korea and japan's military say that north korea fired two short range ballistic missile off the water of the north korean peninsula coast. blake, this is the 25th missile launch for north korea this year, several in the past two weeks. what are you hearing? have the north koreans taken credit for these launches? >> well, you know, boris, at this moment as you mentioned, 25 tests so far this year, just seven in the past roughly two weeks, north korea fired two missiles that fell into the sea off the east coast of the korean peninsula. each of these missiles flying about 200 miles meaning these were likely short range ballistic missile. so far this year as you and i both mention now, 25 different
3:13 am
times north korea has fired missiles, the highest total since kim jong un took power, including seven in the past two weeks. south korea's joint chiefs of staff released a statement saying north korea's repeated ballistic missile launch is a serious provocation that harms peace and safety as well as the international community and it is also a clear violation of the u.n. resolution. japan's prime minister weighed in saying they're looking into the possibility that this morning's launch was from a submarine and this to say about north korea's recent series of tests. >> since the end of september, they have launched missiles seven times. these actions by north korea are a threat to the peace and security to our country, region and the international community and absolutely cannot be
3:14 am
tolerated. >> and for now the big question that's being asked is why is north korea firing so many missiles. experts told cnn that north korea to be trying to show off its arsenal or remind the world that north korea can't be ignored. it also demonstrates its missile program is in rapid development and it's likely these tests are going to continue while this current round of modernization is finished. if you asked pyongyang through media the reason of the latest string of tests, it because of the recent joint military drills conducted by the united states and south korea and they say it's a just reaction and they consider them extremely provocative and threatening. and the u.s. feels the same way calling them dangerous, reckless and destabilizing for that

3:21 am
trip. the president isn't stopping in some of those marquee states we were talking about your pennsylvanias, arizonas, but he is visiting some states that has some closer-than-expected races. heading into the election cycle, there was a question of how welcome biden would be on the campaign trail, whether he would be a help or hindrance to democrats. he does remain underwater. it is interesting to see how the white house calibrates these trips. on wednesday he will begin in colorado. the democratic incumbent senator there, michael bennett, he is facing a presidential campaign. the president certainly looking

this week new cnn and kaiser foundation polling revealed that an overwhelming majority say they believe the u.s. is d experiencing a mental health crisis saying the opioid epidemic is a top health concern. joining me is the director of the education development center in washington, d.c. good morning and thank you for joining us. first off, why are we seeing this uptick in adults saying that the country is dealing with this mental health crisis?
3:40 am
>> thank you so much for having me today, amara. i think that there's been a mental health crisis for years. i think we're just paying more attention to it now. i think the pandemic did actually highlight for people this lack of connectedness and lack of structure and support and certainly parents spending a lot more time with kids and kids being absent from school, a place where they get a lot of support. in truth, this mental health crisis has been coming for many, many years. it's just really good we're talking about it now. >> i'm glad we're talking about it. how did the pandemic accelerate or exacerbate this mental health crisis? what really stuck out to me in this polling said nearly half of parents, 47% said the pandemic had negatively affected their kids' mental health. >> i know, isn't that -- it's very frightening as a paurrent.
3:41 am
i have three kids, too. they did not like zoom school. a lot of their mental health needs were observed during this time. we did not get help in school. some of that was cut off. people missed appointments early in the pandemic. kid thrive in most cases on that social connection. despite the same they can use social needia, it's not the same as in-person care. and there's a lot of scary things going to go on in the world. are you going to get covid, is your loved one going to get covid? these challenges are converging on us at once and it's a lot for parents to process, let alone a child. >> and during the pandemic, we know they're resilient but how will all of this social
3:42 am
disconnectedness manifest? what did you see in terms of atimpact on children now that children are back in school and there's not much mask wearing. what do we need to lock out for as parents? >> i think you mentioned resilience and the truth is people are really resilient. our kids are really resilient, adults are really resilient. my expertise is suicide prevention in particular. so we know that a lot of people, a lot of adults and kids have thoughts of suicide, about 12 million people a year think about suicide, but very few go on to die by suicide. and i think part of the key that you asked is we have to talk about this. we have to ask questions when we're concerned about our loved ones. it really feels to me like you've got something going on or i'm really concerned about you. can you tell me about that? what's going on for you. and then listen.
3:43 am
listen without judgment. this is not a time to say, oh, you know, don't worry about that or that's not worth getting so upset about. it's a time to just sit back and listen, be compassionate, concerned, caring, talk about how you're handling things. i think we have to model for our children that mental health, talking about mental health is no different than talking about allergies or migraines. one thing i think is really critical is if our child was having chronic headaches or seizures, we wouldn't hesitate to get medical support. we would ask all our friends, who do you know, who's the best, how do i see somebody and research it and do everything we could. i think we have to see mental health in the same way. we have to support one another and we have to ensure we're getting care. >> i agree with you 100%. i hope we can all take time to listen to each other and ask each other questions without judgment. really appreciate the time. thank you. >> thank you for having me.
