hello, welcome to our viewers joining us here from the united states and all over the world, you are watching cnn newsroom and i'm rosemary church. just ahead, heavy snowfall along the west coast leaves hundreds of residents stranded, and the situation across the northeast does not look much better. we will bring you the latest on extreme weather pummeling parts of the united states. a stunning admission under oath, the chair of the fox corporation, rupert murdaugh, acknowledges that fox news anchors pushed a -- election lies on air. reports of crumbling morale and desperation within the russian military. live from cnn center, this is cnn newsroom with rosemary church.
12:02 am
>> we begin with extreme weather in the united states, as a winter storm is pummeling parts of the country with heavy snow and rain. nearly 50 million people are under winter weather alerts, across the northeast. new york's governor says parts of the state could see up to a foot of snow. schools in connecticut and rhode island have already canceled classes for today. in the west, a state of emergency was declared on monday in san bernardino county in california, after several feet of snow over the weekend left some residents trapped. people there are also running out of gas, baby formula and other vital supplies as they face road closures. cleanup efforts will be a major undertaking in oklahoma, where several tornadoes ripped three parts of the state on sunday. >> reporter: it has been a day of cleanup here in the central oklahoma town of norman,
12:03 am
oklahoma, where an eft tornado, according to the national weather service, ripped through sunday night. the damage is extensive in the areas hit. the good news throughout all of this, is that the storm -- the worst of the storm's tornadoes to touch down causing damage in very isolated areas. outside of these areas we are not seeing extensive damage, and that is staggering, considering the wind levels, the wind speeds that we were seeing as this line of storms blew through the state on a sunday night. in the texas panhandle town of memphis, texas, wind gusts were well over 100 miles per hour, staggering numbers, the kind of wind speeds we normally see in a hurricane, not in the area of the storm where there is no 22 involved. this scene here is a tornado but you can see a giant piece of plywood ripped off of a home somewhere near here, which ended up lodged into that tree. we have seen that play out in several places, several homes
12:04 am
shifting on their foundation, and knocked over, and we spoke with one woman who is a high school math teacher who described being inside her home by herself in an interior bathroom and described what it was like when the house started shaking as the tornado blew through. >> i went to walmart, maybe not in our earlier for groceries for the week and whatnot. got home, got them unpacked, turned on the news, because i knew there was weather, and i was like oh, there's one headed this way. i heard the sirens go off and thought i would go get in my safe place. so i grabbed my cat, for second like, i might not have a house. remix cnn, norman oklahoma. now, astonishing testimony from the media tighten behind fox news. rupert murdaugh has admitted under oath that some fox news
12:05 am
anchors endorsed false claims on the air about the 2020 u.s. presidential election being stolen. these are the fox anchors murdaugh said spread former president trump's lies about election fraud. lou dobbs, maria bartiromo, jeanine pirro, and sean hannity. murdaugh made it clear that he does not believe the right wing talk network , as an entity, promoted the lies, but the fox corporation chairman admitted that he wished fox news had issued a more forceful response. murdaugh testified , i would have liked us to be stronger in denouncing, in hindsight. when asked what the consequences should be for fox executives who knowingly allowed lines to be broadcast, murdaugh replied, quote, they should be reprimanded. they should be reprimanded, may be gotten rid of. 's shocking remarks came during a deposition taken by dominion voting systems. the voting technology company is suing fox
12:06 am
news for $1.6 billion over unproven fraud claims from its 2020 election coverage. earlier i asked presidential historian douglas brinkley about murdaugh's attempt to shift the blame away from the network and towards certain hosts. >> fox news is in deep trouble. murdaugh is trying to make a distention between a few of his anchors, if you have his on-air personalities, and not the network as a whole, but it is very clear that fox overstepped its bounds, that it promoted the idea that our election was stolen, it played into the trump big lie, alas, i think fox will have to clean up their act, this could end up going to the supreme court, it is hard to win defamation cases like dominion voting systems is trying to do, nevertheless, the record is pretty clear that fox knew this whole trump thing
12:07 am
about the stolen election and rigged election was bogus and ran with it on the air anyway. it's a sad moment in cable tv history. >> indeed. i do want to turn now to another big issue, the ohio trained around. house republican committees are pushing to launch investigations into the toxic train disaster in east palestine , eager to inject politics into this issue by accusing president biden of mishandling the aftermath and forsaking that small town in favor of traveling to kyiv in ukraine, to meet with president zelenskyy. now it has become a political flashpoint, but i don't think the white house thought would happen. what mistakes were made? where do you see this going? >> whenever there is an environmental disaster, i think about when the cuyahoga river
12:08 am
in ohio caught fire in 1969 or the famous santa barbara oil spill or recently a bp oil spill to the white house has to act and speak quickly. barack obama got pummeled for not talking more forcefully when there was the bp oil spill. so, president biden administration did all the right things from a networking and legal and safety point of view, but they got the optics wrong. biden needed to have offered a quick message to the people of ohio in a dramatic way, perhaps kamala harris, certainly pete buttigieg should have been there sooner than he was. so, the republicans will dine out on this east palestine is on the pennsylvania border, that is a very important voting area, there, in western pennsylvania and eastern ohio and, i think if he biden administration had an opportunity again, they would do everything they did, they would have held norfolk southern accountable, but, they may have done the spin, the talking about it, the
12:09 am
communication, the grieving little more forcefully. >> douglas brinkley talking to me earlier. shipments of hazard a hazardous waste have resumed, contaminated soil and liquid are being transported to sites certified in ohio and indiana. the u.s. department of energy's new assessment about the origins of covid-19 is making waves. multiple sources in the intelligence community tell cnn, the notion of a chinese lab leak kickstarting the pandemic is still a minority opinion in washington, and the biden administration maintains there is no official inclusion on the matter so far. brian todd has more from washington. >> reporter: the mysteries surrounding the origins of the virus which has killed nearly 7
12:10 am
million people worldwide, growing deeper. the u.s. department of energy in a newly revealed classified intelligence report says the covid-19 pandemic likely started from an accidental leak from a lab in wuhan, china. at the same time, sources tell cnn, the energy department said in that report that it has, quote, low confidence in that conclusion. beth sanders says what that really means is, the energy department thinks the virus came from that lab, but admits it could be wrong. >> low confidence means they have such fragmentary and inconclusive evidence, they don't have a lot of collaboration in reporting, they don't have anybody in the lab itself saying it has definitely happened. it adds up to looking like that, but they cannot say definitively that it is. >> reporter: this latest report only adds to the divide within the u.s. government, over where the virus began, from with a lab leak or if it was started more naturally. many in the scientific community believe a large, outdoor wet market in wuhan is the most likely place where the
12:11 am
virus started, jumping from animals to humans. >> to me, the scientific evidence, overwhelmingly supports natural origins. we know where the first cases of covid-19 appeared in this pandemic, and they are all clustered around a specific seafood market in wuhan. >> reporter: the chinese government also firing back at the idea that the virus came from a lab leak. >> reporter: the relevant parties should stop stir frying the argument of laboratory leaks, stop vilifying china and stop politicizing the issue of origin tracing. >> reporter: analysts say the chinese government's actions are a big part of why this mystery lingers. >> the china problem is the chinese are not being transparent and allowing outbreak of litigation, they destroyed the wet market after the virus emerged there, so it is going to get harder and harder to trace. >> reporter: also muddying the picture? some republicans in congress believe american funding for the chinese lab, money from the national institutes of health
12:12 am
could be tied to coronavirus experiments at the lab. >> we need to stop using nih dollars in experiments in wuhan at this lab and i think the people involved in this should be held the cannibal for what they did. >> summer publicans have blamed dr. anthony fauci for spearheading the funding at the chinese lab. baoji has said this. >> maybe there is a lab leak but it's not with the viruses the nih was funding, that is almost certainly the case. >> reporter: despite the ongoing intelligence debate over the origins of covid-19, the u.s. intelligence agencies do have a consensus, that as of right now, they do not believe there is evidence that the coronavirus which causes covid- 19 was created deliberately as a part of a chinese biological weapons program. brian todd, cnn, washington. hong kong is set to end its co-the mask mandate, restriction which has been in place from the start of the pandemic. as of wednesday, masks will no longer be required outdoors, indoors, or on public transport. christie lou stanton reports.
12:13 am
>> reporter: this is one of the last places on the planet where you still have to wear a mask, but after almost three years of both indoor and outdoor use in public, hong kong is finally dropping his mask mandate. i still have to wear this today because the mandate is not fully scrapped until wednesday, march 1st. hong kong's top leaders meeting is on tuesday. >> in order to give people a very clear message that hong kong is resuming normalcy, i think this is the right time to make the decision. >> reporter: for much of the past three years, hong kong and neighboring macau both followed china's strict zero call of zero coded policy. account dropped her fictions on monday. according to dr. karen griffin from the university of hong kong, facemasks have played an important role in reducing community transmission in hong kong, but now that on most everyone is vaccinated and most
12:14 am
people have also been affected, dropping the legal mandate is past due. people can now do their own risk assessment to determine if they want to wear one or not. hong kong's minty scrap masks comes after the government launched its hello hong kong campaign to bring back tourists and international visitors and business people. starting wednesday, they can breathe easy with a mask mandate effectively over. kristie lu stout, cnn, hong kong. still to come, as the war in ukraine enters a second year. new analysis reveals the staggering losses already suffered by russian troops on the battlefield. the details, just ahead. cuh-congestion? better. cough? fever? better. mucinex all in one relieves 9 symptoms in 1 dose. it's not cold and flu season. it's always comeback season. when we started our business we were paying an arm and a leg for postage. i remember setting up shipstation. one or two clicks and everything was up and running. i was printing out labels and saving money. shipstation saves us so much time. it makes it really easy and seamless. pick an order, print everything you need, slap the label onto the box,

12:18 am
welcome back, everyone. in another strong show of support for ukraine, u.s. treasury secretary janet yellen traveled to kyiv in a surprise visit, as she stressed that aid to ukraine is more vital than ever. yellen met with president volodymyr zelenskyy to discuss economic assistance and efforts
12:19 am
to impose severe sanctions on russia. she also met with the prime minister, who said that washington is committed to provide more than $10 million in budget support by september. that is as ukraine's budget deficit is expected to hit $38 billion this year. cnn's melissa bill spoke exclusively with yellen and asked her if she thinks moscow is listening. >> i think they are listening. i think that we have imposed very serious costs on them, and hear from not only the united states, but a large coalition, many allies. the moral outrage that we fear, and they see our determination to make them pay a price.
12:20 am
>> to the east of kyiv, ukrainian military officials and even the president himself are describing a more challenging situation unfolding on the front lines of bakhmut. ukraine says bakhmut remains the epicenter of russia's nonstop attacks as russian forces gradually advance, making it harder for ukrainian units to maintain access to the city. cnn reports on how moscow is portraying its progress on the battlefield. >> reporter: russian defense ministry video from the war in ukraine showing moscow's troops on the move, gaining ground, beating back ukrainian forces. but, the reality, at least in some cases, seems different. these soldiers say they were mobilized from siberia, and they are refusing to fight. due to the current state of affairs, we find ourselves in a desperate position as the commanders do not care about
12:21 am
our lives, he says. he adds, we ask for help. we have nowhere else to turn. the video was published as ukrainian say they have decimated russian forces trying to assault eastern ukraine. after the public spat between the wagner private military company and russian defense ministry over emma supplies to mercenaries around bakhmut. prigozhin says the issue has been resolved, but he took another swipe at the defense ministry. a big number of former soldiers who are part of wagner came here because they were looking for more creative freedom, since everyone understands the army does not always enable that book when i asked prigozhin weather ties with the defense ministry have been restored, a snarky answer. >> guys, you are cnn, enemy spies, have a conscience, how can i discuss sensitive matters with you on a social media channel? wagner forces say they have gained ground this weekend.
12:22 am
russian state media released drawn footage of the other distraction there. and claim ukrainian losses are immense. former puritan adviser sergei markoff tells me he does not believe the wagner group uses his forces as cannon fodder. >> to my information, he tries to preserve their lives, because he is profiting from their lives , and he is a businessman. >> their lives or his property? >> yes. >> reporter: while progress is hard to come by for his army, russian president vladimir putin shows no signs of backing down. instead, proclaiming the ukraine were to be a conflict with the west. >> they have one goal, to break up the former soviet union and its main part, the russian federation. for what? to push the remanence around and put them under their direct control.
12:23 am
>> we are hearing similar things from vladimir putin on monday, when he congratulated the special operations forces of russia. he said they were saving the russian nation and russian lands from what he called ukrainian neo-nazis. we expect to hear more from vladimir putin on tuesday, when he is set to hold a speech to the russian intelligence service, the fsb. >> cnn's clare sebastian is following of elements for us and joins us live from london. good morning, claire. was more are you learning about russia's staggering troop losses, and the impact it is having on morale? >> reporter: yes, well, we don't hear very much from the russian side about troop losses, but, there is a new analysis out from the center for strategic and international studies, has looked at satellite images, social media sources on the ground, they have been speaking to, things like that, to compile this analysis and the conclusion is that russia has suffered more
12:24 am
combat deaths in the first year of this war, then all of its wars since world war ii, combined. they estimate that the monthly death rate is 25 times higher than it was in chechnya, and 35 times higher than it was in afghanistan. cnn has not been able to independently verify those numbers, it is incredibly difficult to do so, since they are so fraught with misinformation in this war, but it does show a sort of sense of what we have been hearing from the battlefield, that this has, in a sense, turned into a world war ii style of trench warfare, not only that, but the length of this frontline, 500 to 600 miles, and both sides are sort of facing each other, burning through massive amount of ammunition, all of this backing up what we are hearing on the ground, particularly around bakhmut, they have been fighting for six months with no real territorial gains on either side. if anything, it is getting more intense. the question of course, around morale is, given that russia is
12:25 am
the aggressor in this war, can putin still sell this to his people? i think it is important to note that he is reframing and rebranding this war as a defensive operation, where russia is defending the people of ukraine. rosemarie? >> clare sebastian joining us live from london, many thanks. still to come, and is really american killed in the west bank, and outrage from israelis after palestinian homes are torched. the latest on growing violence, coming up.

12:30 am
the west bank, near the dead sea. the latest deadly shooting happened on a highway, outside the city of jericho on monday. one day after israeli settlers carried out attacks against palestinians in the west bank. officials say at least one palestinian man died in those attacks, which came after two israeli brothers were shot dead, nearby. an official from the israeli military says they consider revenge attacks against palestinians, quote, actions of terror. we are joined now live from jerusalem, what is the latest on this increase in violence across the region? >> reporter: what we are learning is that yesterday, clan canalis, originally from connecticut, he moved to israel a few years ago but had been sort of back-and-forth, just recently completed his degree at columbia university. he was driving along what is normally a rather peaceful route which many tourists use
12:31 am
to reach places like the dead sea, to go visit jericho, and apparently, he was essentially shot while driving. he died of his wounds. he is now the 14th israeli that has been killed in just about a month. this has been a very violent three days and of course, we have had more than 60 palestinians killed since the beginning of the year. his death comes after sunday night where we saw israeli settlers essentially rampaging through palestinian towns, setting fires to homes and houses. one palestinian man killed, those are being called both revenge attacks, and also act of terror by the israeli military, which is rather unusual for the israeli military to be in essential agreement with many palestinians . those were called revenge attacks for what happened earlier on sunday where two israeli brothers were also killed in a shooting attack while they were driving. these two israeli brothers, 19 and 21 years old, killed along
12:32 am
a route that passes through palestinian towns in the west bank, which is often a flashpoint, all of this, of course, coming during a very intense time for israel in this region as benjamin netanyahu faces many challenging fronts, not even two months into his term. >> reporter: benjamin netanyahu is the most experienced prime minister in israeli history. but, he is facing unprecedented multifaceted battles on nearly every front. tensions and violence between israelis and palestinians are at a 20 year high. on sunday, the occupied west bank burned two israeli brothers, shot point blank, killed while sitting in traffic in what officials say was a terrorist attack. then, in what has been deemed revenge attacks by israeli settlers, a palestinian man, shot and killed. houses and cars burned. just hours after israeli and
12:33 am
palestinian officials met in a summit in jordan, meant to calm tensions, a joint communiquc pledging to take steps to restore calm, seeking a just and lasting peace. >> reporter: meanwhile, netanyahu is far right-wing coalition partners seemingly dismissing the summit in jordan. netanyahu, biographer angela pfeffer says much of the controversy around netanyahu's thanks to these governing partners. >> i think, this is the least netanyahu has ever been in control as a prime minister. he's not running his government, his government is being run by the coalition partners who have him over a barrel. >> reporter: meanwhile, for eight weeks in a row, tens of thousands of israelis have been taking to the streets to protest against netanyahu's planned massive judicial reforms. the most sweeping of these changes would give the israeli parliament the power to overturn supreme court decisions . many critics arguing it is part of a ploy to help
12:34 am
netanyahu out of his ongoing corruption trial, something he denies. netanyahu faces increasing international pressure from allies, notably, the united states, which has criticized not only settlement expansion, and some of israel's actions in the occupied west bank, but also a rare presidential incursion into internal israeli politics but resident biden urging a consensus be reached on judicial reforms. >> we have never had this kind of differences, between jerusalem and washington it's always been over palestinian issues or erratic issues, it's never been about the way that israeli government is legislating on a democratic agenda. >> reporter: women ahead in the calendar, the highly sensitive period of overlapping muslim and jewish holidays of ramadan and passover threatening to set jerusalem aflame, as well. yet another battlefront for netanyahu, israel's ultimate survivor, for now.
12:35 am
>> the israeli military is announcing that they will be sending an extra battalions to reinforce troops in the west bank, not only, they say, to go after these attackers, who killed those three men, but also, they say, to try and keep a sense of calm between the israeli settlers and the palestinians there. >> many thanks. just ahead, the voting is done in africa's largest democracy, but the anger and criticism over how the election was handled is growing as many complain of voting irregularities. back with that, in just a a moment. nothing kills more viruses on more surfaces thanan lysol disinfectant spray. ♪

12:45 am
brexit addendum meant to prevent a hard a border on the island, by keeping northern ireland aligned with the eu. under the windsor framework, tradable flow freely via green lanes and red lanes. mainland goods for the republic of ireland go in the red lane, while the checkfree green lane is meant for goods staying in northern ireland. the british prime minister says this decisive breakthrough will protect northern ireland's place within the union, while still safeguarding its sovereignty. >> i also want to speak directly to the unionist community. i understand, and have listened to your frustrations and concerns. it is clearly in the interest of the people, and those of us who are passionate about the cause of unionism, for power- sharing to return. of course, parties will want to consider the agreement in detail , a process which will need time and care.
12:46 am
>> so far, there is cautious optimism over the deal, but the head of northern ireland's democratic unionist party, is making it clear that they are not yet onboard. >> we need to look at the legal text, we need to get legal advice on that, we need to make our own assessments and come to a considered view on this. i hope that we can do that within a reasonable timeframe, but let's face it, it has taken months to get to this point, and we will not be rushed, we will not be pushed into a hasty decision, we want to make the right decision. >> the deal must also be approved by the uk parliament. we will be back in just a momentnt. tter. mucinex all in one relieves 9 9 symptoms in 1 dos. it's n not cold and flu season. it's always comeback season. we planned well l for retirement, but i wish we had more cash. you think those two have any idea? that they can
