6:00 am
good morning, everyone, i'm bianna golodryga in new york. breaking overnight, russian retaliation. this morning at least ten people are dead and dozens more injured after russian president vladimir putin ordered several strikes across ukraine. in the capital city of kyiv a major blast struck a pedestrian bridge, a ukrainian official tweeted this picture which appears to show the aftermath of a strike on a children's playground. the russian military bombing several other parts of ukraine, including kharkiv, lviv and
6:01 am
mykolalv. critical infrastructure including power facilities have also been hit. part of putin's reply after an explosion hit a bridge. our reporters and guests are standing by to bring you the latest. let's begin this morning with if he had drinkfred pleitgen in uk. i know you went out to see some of that destruction firsthand. what did you see? >> reporter: hi there, bianna. it was several hours of blasts we witnessed and heard ourselves. it happened -- or started happening in the early morning hours, i'd say about quarter past 8:00 local time which is about 1:15 in the morning where you guys are. there was a big blast sort of quite close to our location as we went out there were several other explosions that we were able to hear. we went to one of the locations where in the vicinity of there a
6:02 am
playground had gotten hit by a missile, luckily there don't appear to have been any children there at that time. but then we also got to an intersection that was also hit by a russian rocket and i can tell you it was the scene of absolute carnage on the ground there, there were destroyed vehicles, burnt out vehicles, there were dead bodies on the scene as well. we later spoke to the deputy head of ukraine's presidential administration and he told me that at that place alone five people were killed and it's next to a museum and next to a university building. so completely unclear whether or not the russians may have thought that there was some sort of military target there as well. but just to give you an idea of how busy the ukrainian air defenses have been over the past couple of hours, the ukrainians are just saying -- this is information we got literally a couple seconds ago -- they're saying that the russians shot at them 84 cruise missiles, they launched 24 unmanned aerial vehicles or drones including 13 drones that are essentially
6:03 am
kamikaze drones. the air defenses have been busy. they've mapgd to shoot a lot of those down but obviously not all of them. that's why we have this scene where many ukrainian cities really across the country, big cities have been hit, critical infrastructure has been hit and the ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy he came out very early in the morning hours today and he said that they believed that there were essentially two targets that the russians were trying to hit on the one hand that critical infrastructure, energy infrastructure, there's areas still here in kyiv that are without power, but also of course ukrainian civilians as well and that's why you have this death toll which, you know, the ukrainians right now are saying they have ten people who are confirmed dead in these attacks but they fear that that could go up. right now it's a fluid situation. just a couple of seconds ago -- or a couple minutes st minutes ago we did have an alarm with air raid sirens going off. >> more strikes to be yet to come. these are images that remind us, harken back to the early days of
6:04 am
this war months ago. we haven't seen these types of strikes by russia into western ukraine in quite some time. fred pleitgen, thank you so much. stay safe. well, this morning russian president vladimir putin out with a sharp warning. take a listen. >> translator: in terms of the further act of terrorism on the -- of russia the russians reply will be harsh and will be -- will be corresponding to the level of threat so the russian federation. have no doubt about it. >> putin of course responding to that attack over the weekend in the crimean kerch strait bridge there. $4 billion bridge that he personally himself invested a lot of political capital in. cnn correspondent salma abdelaziz is in london with more. salma, interesting that putin is calling the strike on that bridge a terrorist attack and
6:05 am
now, of course, using that as a basis for this escalation. really speaking to his domestic audience there within russia. >> absolutely, bianna. that sound that you just played of president putin, that was him addressing his own security council this morning. of course, after the weekend attack on the kerch bridge. as you mentioned, make nothing mistake about it, this explosion on this bridge in crimea is absolutely a personal affront to president putin himself. it is his dream, it is his vision to connect occupied crimea to mainland russia. to take what is historically ukrainian territory, claiming it is russian land. i heard one analyst describing this bridge as the wedding band that connects, again, occupied crimea to russia. a very personal attack there and president putin making clear to his own, to his inner circle, that he has responded. that's what he went on to stay in that statement. he says the kremlin has hit at military infrastructure, energy infrastructure, communications infrastructure, essentially trying to degrade ukraine's capabilities, but there's a few
6:06 am
things to read between the lines here. first of all, you have to realize that this exposed very serious security vulnerabilities for russia. this is a bridge that is absolutely controlled by russia, should have been -- access should have been tight, security should have been tight and yet it was hit by the saab a tours. ukraine not claiming responsibility but a major strategic victory here. parts of the bridge have resumed rail services are running again, cars are able to move somewhat through traffic, but for lawyerees and large trucks they have to be ferried back and forth to russian territory, that makes serious issues for providing surprise to the front lines. already we're seeing western allies for ukraine are getting ready to respond, tomorrow there will be a g7 meeting, president zelenskyy expected to address his friends and allies there and president putin rushing to save face, of course, bianna. >> that bridge really serving as a major conduit for military
6:07 am
equipment and infrastructure. a huge blow for the russian military. salma abdelaziz, thank you. international leaders are condemning russia's heavy wave of attacks and vowing to provide ukraine with additional military support. now, this comes just days after president biden warned that the risk of armageddon is at its highest point in half a century. cnn's arlette saenz joins me from the white house. what are you hearing from the biden administration officials in terms of a response to what we've seen not only over the weekend, but obviously this morning in kyiv? >> reporter: bianna, white house officials in recent days have really said that it appears russia is intent on doubling down on its war of ukraine. something that certainly played out today with that wave of strikes across the country earlier today. now, so far the white house has yet to comment on these latest developments. president biden remains in wilmington, delaware, and will be traveling to the white house a bit later this afternoon, but as salma mentioned, the german chancellor olaf scholz -- his
6:08 am
office said there will be an emergency meeting of the g7 tomorrow. the u.s. part of that g7 group. one thing that the u.s. has continually said throughout this war and in recent weeks is that the u.s. remains committed to providing security assistance to ukraine. biden actually spoke by phone yesterday with chancellor scholz where the two men talked about that very matter, but this all comes as president biden has really in the course of the past four days spoken very starkly about the stakes of this war. he warned that the world is at the -- is reaching the highest possibility of nuclear armageddon in 60 years since the cuban missile crisis. u.s. officials have said that that's not -- those comments were not necessarily based on new intelligence, that they haven't seen an immediate threat that putin has decided to use nuclear weapons but simply are speaking to the gravity with which president biden is viewing the situation at this moment. >> arlette saenz at the white house, thank you so much.
6:09 am
joining me now is congressman tom mel now ski, a democrat from new jersey. he sits on the house foreign affairs and homeland security committees. he also served as an assistant secretary of state before joining congress. congressman, thank you for joining us. it was interesting as things have clearly been escalating to hear the kremlin say today that in response to this what they call terror attack along the crimean bridge that they will not be issuing any sort of nuclear responses or attacks, but given that and given what we've seen in these new attacks and strikes against western ukraine, do you view this as a further escalation, perhaps a new phase in this war that putin clearly has been losing up to now? >> i think russia is still losing this war. ukraine is continuing to make gains on the battlefields that actually matter, in eastern and southern ukraine. putin is lashing out in the only way he knows how, through terror, by targeting civilians,
6:10 am
by trying to increase the pain that the ukrainian people are suffering. i think the only affect it's going to have is to further unify ukrainians against him and even more important further unify the world against him. so while horrific, i don't think this changes the -- the outcome of the war in any way. >> should it change how the u.s. responds to vladimir putin's latest actions? clearly we have continued to aid ukraine militarily, some $16 billion in aid thus far, the president says that he will stand by ukraine for as long as needed. that having been said ukrainians have long been calling for the united states to recognize russia as a state sponsor of terrorism. is now the time to do that? >> well, i think -- i've been in favor of that in the past and the more important thing is the substance of what goes along
6:11 am
with it. the substance of enforcing sanctions, which the united states has imposed, but some of our allies are not respecting. particularly our partners and so-called allies in the persian gulf who just made a decision to spike the price of oil globally in a way that will help putin prolong this war. >> yeah. >> i think dealing with the substance of that is probably more important than the names that we call the russian government. and then in terms of provision of military equipment, i hope this is another wake-up call for our european allies, particularly germany, to step up in providing the ukrainian government with what it needs to defend itself and to reclaim its territory. >> i want to get to the latest moves by opec plus and your calls for a u.s. response in just a moment but let's pick up on what you just left off there and touched upon, and that is the need for more military assistance for ukraine.
6:12 am
clearly for now the focus has been there in the fighting in the east, both in the donbas and in the south there in the country, but with these strikes coming on major cities in the west, strikes we haven't seen in months, will the u.s. be stepping up its military aid in support for ukraine and what pressure can the united states put on its allies to do the same? >> well, this highlights the need for the provision in particular of sophisticated air defense systems, to control the skies over ukraine as president zelenskyy has understandably been urging the west to help him do. some of these systems like the patriot system take time to help countries train up on and to develop the logistical chain to be able to use. so phisticated aircraft, of course the same can be said, but there is no reason why we shouldn't be starting now.
6:13 am
even if it may take several months for the ukrainians to be able to develop those capabilities. this does bring us back to the issue with our persian gulf allies. i think as we see this destruction raining down on ukraine right now we should remember that by some measure we actually do more to defend saudi arabia and the united arab emirates than we're doing to defend ukraine. we have patriot missile systems deployed in these countries in the persian gulf manned by american crews that shoot down missiles fired by, for example, houthi rebels in yemen against the saudis and the emirates. we don't do any of those things for the ukrainians. >> well, just quickly, if i can pick up -- >> we do this for countries that are hurting us rather than helping. >> that's a point that you made last week in response to the moves to cut oil by 2% globally by opec plus. you said that the u.s. should
6:14 am
respond and one measure to withdraw the 3,000 u.s. troops that are stationed there. have you had any other support from the biden administration or republican members of congress for that proposal? >> the biden administration's response has been to say that all options are on the table. it's been publicly reported that they are considering not participating in military meetings with our gulf partners in the coming weeks, including meetings on this subject of air defense, which i think would send a pretty important signal. look, i think the saudis, the emirates, some of our other partners around the world, i think they didn't quite understand and perhaps still don't fully comprehend that the war in ukraine was a game changer for the united states. that this is the most important issue in the world. the united states, the american people, the people of western europe are making sacrifices
6:15 am
every single day to support ukraine. saudi arabia just decided to intensify our sacrifices to make our pain harsher in order to help putin. >> this after months -- >> there are consequences for that. i just don't -- i wouldn't understand that. >> and this came after months of pressure. it came after months of pressure by u.s. officials behind the scenes to do just the opposite and yet they did. congressman malinowski thank you for your time. >> thank you very much. still to come, how much should democrats expect to see former president obama on the campaign trail ahead of the midterm elections? we will have new cnn reporting up next. and president trump lashes out at the justice department from an arizona campaign stage. among his demands, give me back everything, quote, they're mine. how these displays could impact what the supreme court is now reviewing. plus disturbing video out of san antonio, texas, a deputy

6:20 am
with less than a month to go until the midterm elections requests are pouring in from around the country for president barack obama to help democrats in key races up and down the ballot. but sources close to the former president tell cnn that obama isn't keen on hitting the campaign trail this year as much as many in his party would like. cnn's senior reporter isaac dough bare has more on this. why this decision by the former president. >> the former president feels like, number one, he does better in small doses, that it makes more of an impact when he does things, but also that he still lights up the opposition more than he lights up supporters sometimes or at least as much and there is a danger to that.
6:21 am
but president obama is trying to figure out a bay to have a distinctive role in american life and global life, trying to talk about democracy. that's the argument we will hear him make on the trail when he starts making these targeted bursts of appearances, he will talk about how republicans are a threat to american democracy and follow that up a couple weeks after the elections with a democracy forum, big new event that his foundation will be doing, they will hold it in new york, saying that democracy is under threat in america and around the world. >> it is interesting to hear you talk about him sort of lighting up the republican base because he had been described for so long as the most popular democrat in the country. to hear that there are republicans that still would likely campaign off of this is indeed very interesting. isaac dovere, thank you. >> thank you. and one critical midterm race we are watching is for the open senate seat in ohio.
6:22 am
later today democratic nominee congressman tim ryan will face j.d. vance in their first debate. the senate race remains tight with no clear front runner. dan merica has been following this race for us. dan, what will we be listening for tonight? >> i think it's going to reflect the urgency of the moment, especially for republicans and vance. it is a state that donald trump won twice, republicans would not say that this race has been as costly or close it has been. partly because tim ryan ran a resident campaign, raised $17.3 million in the last three months, has done it by other icing vance. the other part has that vance struggled to turn to the general election. he had a tough summer where ryan did hammer him and vance has
6:23 am
somehow built out of that, he campaigned with trump since then, but it has made the race closer than expected. one reason is tim ryan has credibly claimed in ads that he did vote with donald trump at different times, especially on the issue of trade. take a listen to how these ads that are blanketing the state of ohio have cast the democratic campaign. >> enough stupid fights. that's our team. patriotism means supporting the american worker. why i voted with trump on trade. we've got to have the guts to take on china, bring back manufacturing and cut taxes for workers. >> bianna, i have talked to source both campaigns this morning, i think what you're going to hear tonight is tim ryan is going to continue that message where it suits him, he might cozy up to trump a little bit but he's also going to go after vance as he has been questionable his ties to ohio even at some times calling him a phoney. vance, on the other hand, will go after tim ryan for stuff like that, for that ad, questioning whether that's actually true. noting hills ties to not only
6:24 am
president joe biden but innocency pelosi, democrats in congress and trying to lean on the natural tilt of the state towards republicans. this is a -- again, a state that trump won twice, i think j.d. vance is going to try to count on that tonight as he reaches out to voters. what will be interesting is what happens after the debate in the last few weeks of the campaign, bianna. >> we will be watching that debate tonight and breaking it down for you tomorrow. dan merica, thank you. still ahead, we are back live on the ground in ukraine. near another location where russian air strikes targeted ukrainians earlier today. while russian president vladimir putin warns more attacks could be coming. . on the network witith more 5g coverage. only from t-mobile for business.

6:29 am
people are dead and dozens more injured after a series of russian missile attacks slammed several parts of ukraine. officials there say several regions are now suffering power outages after russian troops targeted critical energy infrastructure. >> translator: they're trying to spread chaos and panic. they want to annihilate our energy supplies. >> i want to get to cnn international security editor nick paton walsh in dnipro, ukraine. what's the scene where you are there in the central part of the country? >> reporter: yeah, a fast cleanup under way after two missiles came n let me just bring our camera around and
6:30 am
bring you closer to the crater here so you can get a sight. even though they're filling it in, quite how massive the crater was caused by one of the two missiles. now, i should correct something i said earlier, a bus was close to this crater when the missile struck. initially people thought maybe those on the bus had escaped unscathed but it now turns out that a -- four, possibly five of them are in critical condition and over a dozen people were injured from that blast. so far officials say five in the region of dnipro dead and over a dozen injured, i think not including those hit by the bus here. as you see this swift cleanup, this is the -- one of the two missiles that landed in the crater here, the other one hit this building over here first, we understand, a two-minute gap between one and the other. quite why this was a target, we just don't know. it appears to have been old telecom building, there seems possibly to have been some
6:31 am
people working in it when it happened, but it's predominantly abandoned and empty. so an odd choice of target. one blast and then a second, a two-minute gap. if you look over here you can see the obvious total disregard for any civilians involved. huge apartment blocks. one woman was telling me she was on her balcony when the first missile hit and managed to get her 8 and 1-year-old child inside to the kitchen to shelter before the second missile went off. we're just seeing the noise you're hearing is the excavator clearing this busy central road. remember, this is a place where people are going to want to try to use at some point in the hours and days ahead despite the damage that crater has caused, but it does beg the question quite why russia would choose to use two very expensive seems cruise missiles, phenomenal firepower to hit an abandoned building. there may have been something happens there that we don't know about, but it does appear to be
6:32 am
empty. it's just causing people here, i think, to express utter dismay, one man called it the genocide of the ukrainian people, talk being how there is no military objective here at all, yet still these two- ferocious strikes cae in. a lot of shock here. while there's a lot of encouragement among ukrainians, you see the speed of cleanup, people trying to get on as fast as they can despite potential further strikes, also the disregard for human life. that's been present since the beginning of the russian invasion seven or eight months ago. this marks the level of firepower deployed across ukraine by russia, 80 plus missiles according to ukrainian officials, it's absolutely i would say unprecedented for the past months and leaves many concerned as to what may come next, but also two questions about what the targets of those 80 plus missiles actually were. critical infrastructure it seems, but also many civilians
6:33 am
hurt. >> total disregard of civilian life seems to be a hallmark of this campaign by the russians. so sad to hear there were those injured on the bus there behind you. nick paton walsh, thank you. overnight former president donald trump repeating unproven claims on the campaign trail in arizona that the fbi planted documents during the raid at mar-a-lago. >> there is no crime. you know there is no crime. it's not a crime. and they should give me immediately back everything that they've taken from me because it's mine. it's mine. they took it from me in the raid. they broke into my house. these are radical left lunatics and they lose documents, they plant documents. let's see, is there a book on nuclear destruction or the building of a nuclear weapon cheaply? let's put that box -- let's put that book in with trump. >> these comments come as the doj faces a tuesday supreme
6:34 am
court deadline to respond to trump's emergency application to allow the special master's review of mar-a-lago documents to include all documents marked as classified. joining me to discuss a paul rosenzweig, a former federal prosecutor and was senior counsel for the white water investigation. before we get to the president's comments on the campaign trail let me ask you about this deadline tomorrow for the doj to respond. how significant was that initial response by the trump legal team and how do you expect the doj to respond? >> well, i think it was more of a delaying tactic and not a realistic application from the trump team. justice thomas gave the department of justice a full week to respond. they filed this last tuesday. if justice thomas thought there was any urgency to the matter, you know, he probably would have asked for a response much more quickly. more to the point, substantively, the supreme court application is really a
6:35 am
technical one about whether or not the special master can review these documents. the trump team has not asked the supreme court to step in and stop doj from using those documents to build its criminal case. so pretty much i think the supreme court thing is a nothing burger. it's sort of the type of thing you would do when your client insists you do something and so you do what you can. >> just a delay tactic, then n your view. let's get back to the president's comments in arizona over the weekend, repeating what he has said on social media and interestingly enough what his legal team is not saying in any court filings. what, if any, impact does this have on the case once again, accusing the fbi, the doj without any evidence whatsoever that they planted these documents. >> well, i mean, first of all, there is an inconsistency, he also said they should give him back what's his, if they planted them it's not his, but leaving that aside really this is
6:36 am
president trump trying to poison the jury pool, to set up a world in which at least one juror is available who will vote to acquit him on the false belief that the documents are planted. the reason the trump team hasn't said that in court is because it's not true and in court they have to say that in a sworn forum where they have to aver what they're telling the court is the truth. that's why judge canon's decision to allow them not to have to make that statement at this point is really one of the more significant things. she's giving them a pass because she's pretty much taken trump's side on this. >> and even though the 11th circuit has really stepped in there. let's turn into what else we're expecting to see this week and that is the january 6 committee once again will be meeting this week on thursday. they rescheduled from last week. it's interesting that committee members zeoe lofgren said that
6:37 am
this potential last hearing will focus on connections between members of president trump's inner circle and violent extremists. what will you been looking for specifically because i don't believe we're going to have any witnesses this time around. >> i am looking for the video evidence and the testimonial evidence that links the most violent of the insurrectionists from january 6th, the oath keepers and the proud boys, to people close to trump. we have already heard and seen slight indications of that with respect to roger stone who has been mentioned prominently in the oath keepers trial that is happening at the same time in washington, d.c., stuart rose and some of his colleagues are on trial for seditious conspiracy. the closer you get to trump the more it is that the case against trump himself as well as close trump confederates for what is, let's be honest, the far more egregious crime of trying to

some terrifying moments for republican new york congressman lee zeldin. gunfire erupting just steps away from his home, bullets landing just feet away. two teenagers were injured. zeldin's two 16-year-old daughters at home when it happened. the republican gubernatorial candidate is now speaking out about the incident this morning, brynn gingras is here with the latest. >> reporter: his teenage lawyers torp home at the time they are not hurt. the zeldin family this has actually nothing to do with them, it was a crime that happened outside their house, doesn't have anything to do with the campaign, so that's good for those daughters there, but certainly such scary moments. what we've learned from law enforcement officials is there were two teenagers who were walking down the block where zeldin lives on long island in new york when a car drove by and actually fired gunshots from that car, striking those two teenagers and according to the congressman those two teens then ran toward his house, hiding under the porch and in the bushes while his two teenage daughters, he says, were doing their homework inside the house,

ran to take cover inside of a bathroom. again, they were not injured. as far as those two teenagers, we're told that they went to the hospital and they are expected to be okay. but certainly this is terrifying moments for the congressman. this isn't the first time that he has actually experienced some crime as he's been campaigning to be the governor here of new york. the republican candidate. it was back in july of course the incident that was terrifying for him, he was the victim of a man who stepped on to the stage while he was giving a speech, allegedly tried to stab him. this is something, of course, that the congressman has often spoke out about, the rise in crime in the city, it's speaking to a lot of voters who will be heading to the ballots and this is yet another incident that he is now saying, look, this happened right now on our front porch. his opponent who is currently the governor, kathy hochul, did send out a tweet, she said as we await more details i am relieved to hear that the zeldin family is safe and grateful for law enforcement's quick response.

disturbing and drawing serious scrutiny on the judgment that have rookie officer who has now been fired, terminated by the san antonio police department for what they say is a violation of their tactics and procedures. now, this started last sunday evening, police claimed that they were called to this mcdan for an unrelated disturbance, and as this officer who we now know is james brennand was walking through the washing par,ing lot he looks off to his right and sees a vehicle that he believes evaded police on a previous day. now, he calls for backup, but then rather than waiting for backup approaches the car, you see on this body camera video, this is from his chest worn body cam ration he walks up, opens the door of this vehicle and you can see the teen who was sitting there eating what looked like a hamburger is startled. the teen puts the car in reverse and backs up, that's when this officer opens fire, five times. the car stops, the teen puts the car in drive and as he's leaving the officer fires an additional five rounds. now, police claim that the officer was struck by the door,

you don't actually see that on the body camera footage. under the department's policy police can use deadly force if there is an imminent threat to an officer or bystander. this video raising serious questions about whether the officer himself had precipitated events and whether he was in imminent danger as he opened fire. it's worth noting that that teen is in the hospital, we also know that the san antonio police department is investigating the incident. the district attorney in bare county is also taking note. the da says once police complete their investigation into the actions of former officer james brennand our civil rights office will fully review the filing as we do with all officer-involved shooting that result in death or serious injury we will submit the case to a grand jury for their consideration. the big question will there be criminal charges filed against this officer. the da says they will review the case, this he will hand it over to the grand jury, they will make that ultimate determination. >> so much video evidence for
