unflinchingly answered the call to protect and their duty to serve. we have had enough gun violence in louisville. we have had enough gun violence in our country. asking for specific relief to stop interfering with the criminal investigation. republicans believe that alvin bragg was doing this for audit of pure political motivation. they knew what was going on. they always was a step ahead. work like they're never gonna find us like this because they didn't deserve that. none of us none of us deserved it. live from london. this is cnn newsroom with max foster and bianca nobilo. it is wednesday, april 12th nine am here in london, four am in louisville, kentucky, whether police have released bodycam video showing their offices quick response to

monday's deadly mass shooting at a bank. the 25 year old gunmen, an employee of the bank opened fire, killing five people and wounding eight others. please dispatch audio reveals the gunman left a voicemail to his friend saying he was going to kill everyone at the bank and that he was feeling suicidal. police say it appears that he was waiting for the officers to arrive at the shooting scene. and he could see out where no one could see in because he's uh , like i said, to two sets of doors deep. um when you combine that with that non reflective glass, the sunshine, uh, elevated position officers could not see inside those doors on their approach whereas he could see out to them. and so that's why he was able to fire on them before they ever saw where he was. these two offices were shot and wounded after arriving at the scene that day. one of them is still in critical condition. cnn's omar jimenez walks us

through the newly released video and explains how the events unfolded and a warning. some of the footage is disturbing. stop! stop! back up. back up. back up! back up. the video starts as officers pull up to the scene. body camera video from officer nicholas wilt shows him approached the bank with a pistol. his partner in training officer veteran corey galloway is wearing a camera too. he grabs his long gun from the trunk. and moments later engages the shooter.

his partner, officer wilt is shot and down in front of the bank, galloway tells arriving officers to look for a better angle. the shooter has an angle on that, officer. we need to get out there. i don't know where he's at the glasses blocking him. and then. going down. i think he's down. yeah did you get the officer? police idea. no, he's down the officer. and all of it played out just behind me here. the windows shattered on that video are now boarded up as a community here,

tries to heal vigil is planned for wednesday to give some of that community that opportunity to find a way forward. police leadership have said they're proud of how their officers responded, but also that the most heroic things we do are shrouded in people's tragedies. and based on what we've seen. this is no exception. martin mendez, cnn. you have kentucky. louisville's mayor is a survivor of workplace gun violence himself. he says that tommy elliot, one of the banks shooting victims was a very close friend to the mayor is calling for action to end gun violence. our city is heartbroken, heartbroken for five more lives lost due to gun violence and whether like me, you do someone and we're close friends or family with someone who was killed or whether you're just part of our community. these five victims should not be dead just like everyone else who

was killed by gun violence in our city in our country should not be dead. weary we're tired. we have had enough gun violence in louisville. we have had enough gun violence in our country, and it is time to take action. experts are commending the efforts of the two police officers who arrived at the scene that day. it's almost impossible to imagine the stress that officer galloway is under at that time, and he must, um, you know, he must feel absolutely terrible to some degree right now, about what happened to officer wilt, but he doesn't let that get in the way of his duty runs to the sound of the gun. quite literally. he gets thrown off his feet momentarily, he recovers, takes a position to cover and then goes right back at the threat. um, that is how it's supposed to be done. less than 200 miles away. in nashville, tennessee, a lawmaker expelled from the statehouse will soon learn if he's getting his job back. justin pearson was one of three

democrats who loudly demanded stricter gun laws up to a deadly school shooting and that didn't go over well with the republican supermajority vote on whether to reinstate pearson happens in the coming hours. a group of anti abortion doctors that sued to ban a common abortion medication is urging a u. s appeals court to uphold the ruling that would take the drug off the market. the group filed its response to requests from the u. s. justice department and the maker of the drug kristen, asking that a texas judge's decision to suspend the pills 23 year old fda approval be allowed to take effect on friday. the appeals court wants the justice department and drugmaker danco laboratories to respond by midday on wednesday. the manhattan district attorney who filed criminal charges against donald trump is firing back at one of the former president's closest allies. alvin bragg, is suing congressman jim jordans, chairman of the house judiciary committee, who has promised an investigation into brag, brag, calls the republican

investigation and unprecedentedly brazen and unconstitutional attack by members of congress on an ongoing new york state criminal prosecution and investigation. he also says quote chairman jordan and the committee city of participating in the campaign of intimidation, retaliation and obstruction. bragg is asking a federal court to block testimony before jordan's committee by a former senior prosecutor in his office, plus possible testimony by bragg himself. i think brad has the better of the arguments here. i don't believe jim jordan can point to a legitimate legislative federal interest that congress has been digging into an ongoing investigation. this is grand jury materials. this is universally regarded as secret. imagine if brag, or any prosecutor could get called up to congress up to capitol hill and have to open up the files on a pending case of grand jury information. it would be damaging to the investigations that would be damaging to the person who is being investigated. jim jordan

responded on twitter, saying first they indicted president for no crime. then they sued to block congressional oversight. when we ask questions about the federal funds, they say that they used to do it, but just a day away from jury selection in the defamation trial against fox news, which is slated to start next week, a delaware judge is already making decisions that will impact both the right wing news network and dominion voting systems. he ruled on tuesday that dominion may not bring up the january 6th attack on the u. s capitol, saying that would be too prejudicial, cnn's oliver darcy explains. the judge said. he said that this maybe for another court at another time, but it's not for this court at this time, handing a legal victory on this issue to fox news outside this legal victory . it was not great in court for fox news, the judge at one point became notably frustrated with the network for not being forthcoming, fully transparent about rupert murdoch's role at

the company. for years, fox lawyers have maintained that rupert murdoch doesn't have an official role at fox news. he's the chairman of fox corporation , but that the lawyers had said he didn't have a official role at fox news. it was only disclosed recently that he is actually an officer at the company and the judge, not very happy about this, making it clear in court, he said at one point. you have a credibility problem to the fox legal team, and so not good for them heading into this trial. there have been no indications that this will be settled and it's going to be a big problem. i think for fox news, at least from a reputational standpoint, you're going to have you can see on the screen there some of the biggest stars at the network on the stand testifying about how they privately acknowledged and knew that donald trump's election lies were lies that were not true. and then you're also going to have them having to admit on the stand that they gave air to those election lies in the wake

of the 2020 election, so it's going to be agonizing process for fox news. it sets the last about 5 to 6 weeks and i can't imagine at least from a reputational standpoint, it's going to be anything but bad for the network. u. s senate, republican tim scott of south carolina is poised to launch an exploratory committee for president later today. that's according to a source familiar with his plans. scott has been testing the waters for months now with the listening tour in february and frequent visits to iowa, which of course, leads the republican primary and caucus season. an exploratory committee is often away for presidential hopefuls to gauge interest before officially becoming a candidate. he scheduled to have hold events in iowa later on today. the us president is waking up in belfast, northern ireland. today he's on a four day visit meant to coincide with the 25th anniversary of the u. s brokered good friday agreement, which is the peace pact that ended the troubles. the british prime minister agreed to joe biden upon his arrival and the

two were expected to hold talks fairly soon. president biden will later head to the republic of ireland. he's traveling with family and they will be exploring their irish roots. we go now to cnn's kevin liptak, who is live for us in belfast, northern ireland. kevin i believe the two leaders are going to be meeting over coffee . we're not expecting a press conference after months of hype this this isn't a particularly significant meeting. it sounds like where does their relationship stand? and what do you think the president wants to get out of this discussion? right. well i think the president and prime minister should have a good relationship and you'll remember soon act is expected at the white house next month for more formal talks. their talks today aren't necessarily the full blown out robust one on one meeting that these two leaders will have next month and i think high on the agenda for them today is actually the situation here in northern ireland, sort of the reason that president biden is here in the first place. of course, they both want to get this devolved government, the

power sharing government back function. being here in northern ireland, and of course, both leaders would have liked to see that happen before president biden arrived, but there continues to be this dispute over brexit trade rules. that unionists in that government have withdrawn and it's been a nonfunctioning for over a year now, and that is sort of one of the unfulfilled ambitions of the good friday agreement. of course , that is the agreement that president biden is here to celebrate, and i think it's notable. he won't be speaking to lawmakers at any point on the strip in a formal speech. instead he'll be speaking to students at ulster university. really trying to focus not necessarily on this region's bloody past, but instead on its future on the potential for economic investments in this region, and you know, a lot of those students may not have even been born in 1998. they may not have any direct memory of the troubles themselves. person in biden really wanting to emphasize the potential in this

region instead of just sort of. it's very troubled history. from here. he does head south to the republic of ireland later this afternoon that will include the first of two stops on this trip. and one of the president biden's sort of ancestral home towns that will be in county louth. that is where president biden's great great great grandfather, owen finnegan, he was born in 18 18. he was a shoemaker. he left for the united states in 18 49 sort of around the era of the irish famine. that's really kind of the origin moment for president biden's irish history, bianca. kevin liptak for us in belfast. thank you so much fire at a recycling plant with plumes of toxic smoke is expected to burn for days in the u. s. state of indiana. here's how emergency officials say that the fire started. it was fully loaded with unknown type of plastics. fire spread from the semi trailer to other piles of

plastics that were around the trailer. we only have one access into the where the fire was. all the other access roads were blocked by piles of plastic and other semi trailers. so once the fire got out of control and darkened down on us. we backed out real quick. and then went to a defensive mode. the building's owner had previously warned about the unsafe facility. those living within half a mile of the plant were ordered to evacuate their homes still ahead, egypt is denying a damaging allegation coming out of those leaked pentagon documents posted on social media plus kremlin critic alexei navalny's health is reportedly on the decline behind bars while his team thinks it's possible that he may have been poisoned. again. and later an exclusive interview with two americans who survived a terrifying kidnapping in mexico . they describe in detail their harrowing ordeal and why they were ultimately freed by the cartel members who took them.

s officials are speaking out publicly for the first time about a trove of leaked pentagon documents posted on social media . cia director william burns calls the leaks which expose us spying on some of its closest allies and urgent problem. cnn's oren lieberman has more sectarian. not all top us officials trying to get ahead of the damage caused by a leak of highly sensitive documents. i will tell you that we take this very seriously and we will continue to investigate and turn over every rock until we find the source of this and the extent of it. defense secretary lloyd austin promising results from an investigation just getting underway while secretary of state antony blinken worked to reassure foreign nations we have engaged with allies and partners at high levels over the past the past days. including to reassure them about our own commitment to safeguarding intelligence. and, of course, our commitment to our security partnerships. the department of justice is handling the criminal

investigation of the leaks while d o. d is part of a broader look into how the leaks have impacted national security. the leaks have reached across the globe, revealing us spying on adversaries, including russia and china, but also on us allies and partners, among them israel, south korea and many more. some of the documents reviewed by cnn offers sensitive details on ukraine's military capabilities or lack thereof, including critical shortages of air defenses and overall casualty assessments. after more than a year of war. ukrainian officials downplayed the significance of the leaks, saying some of the information wasn't secret at all . but a source close to ukrainian president vladimir zelensky says the military has already changed some of its plans because of the leaks. in a new set of leaked documents obtained by the washington post . the us learned egyptian president abdel fattah al sisi was considering providing 40,000 rockets to russia for its war in ukraine, but to do so quietly to avoid problems with the west since egypt is one of the largest recipients of u. s

military aid. cnn has not seen the documents and cannot confirm their authenticity. egyptian state media called the report an informational absurdity while the kremlin called it another hoax, and the u. s says they have seen no signs of egypt providing lethal laid to russia , but it underscores the far reaching consequences of the leaks. briefing on the logistics right on how this information got out there, but we also need to get briefings on the substance. the leaked documents appear to be part of a daily intelligence briefing prepared for the pentagon's senior leaders, officials said the documents can be accessed by hundreds, if not thousands of people across the government with the proper security clearance. it's not just a question of the number of people who had access to information like this, but how it's disseminated either through tablets rigged to have top secret information on them also printed out as we have seen through the documents and simply forwarded via emails, either in whole or in excerpts, depending on the classification level. some of that creates an electronic track that can be looked after and investigated, but not all of it. and that adds

to the complications in investigating something like this and trying to figure out the motive behind it, or in lieberman, cnn at the pentagon. us president joe biden has spoken with the parents of evan gush covic, the wall street journal reporter arrested in russia last month on espionage charges. the phone call happened tuesday as the president flew to northern ireland. the white house says that it's committed to getting gushy. it's released as well as paul whelan, another american who has been held in russia for years. the family of gush kovic issued a statement which reads. we're encouraged that the state department has officially designated evan is wrongfully detained. we appreciate president biden's call to us today, assuring us that the u. s government is doing everything in its power to bring him home as quickly as possible. w n b a style brittany greiner is writing a memoir about her detention in russia. the book will cover grinders 10 month ordeal, including her arrest, trial and imprisonment as well as public and behind the scenes efforts to bring her home

in a statement, dryness said that she hoped her book would raise awareness of other americans wrongfully detained abroad, including paul whelan and evan got covic. the book is due out next year. greiner has re signed with the phoenix mercury and will be on the court when the nba season starts next month. the health of jailed russian opposition leader alexei navalny appears to be getting markedly worse in a twitter post tuesday, his spokesperson said navalny had severe stomach issues and had lost eight kg or about £17 over the past two weeks. according to that tweet navalny is not receiving any treatment inside the prison. claire sebastian is following developments and she joins me now. what do we know for sure about this? and why their concerns that he may be being poisoned again? so navalny's health has been in the spotlight really, for the best part of the last couple of years since he came back to russia after being poisoned as we now know what that nerve agent knowledge talk, and we ended up pretty much

straightaway back in prison on now, various charges he what we know is that, according to his team, his spokesperson, his lawyer, he there was an ambulance called on friday for these acute stomach pains, he wasn't told, according to his lawyer. what kind of ailment he was suffering with. he wasn't really offered any treatment. he was then released from solitary environment and then put back on monday, his spokesperson says, for the 13th time, so that is obviously weighing on his health . his daughter has also recently raised the alarm, saying that they hate she believes that the russian government is slowly torturing and killing her father, so his team have come out and said they don't rule out the possibility that this is a poisoning designed not to sort of knock him out instantly, as you might have expected, with no joke, but too slowly deteriorate his health almost to create the sense of deniability around it, make it look like he's ill. we don't have any evidence for that at the moment, but we know certainly that navalny continues to criticize putin from inside prison and the russian government continues to scapegoat him. we saw just

recently with the death of that military blogger that they came out instantly than anti terror committee and so that agents of alexei navalny were behind it, so he continues to be a pretty big thorn in the kremlin side, even from prison. claire. sebastian. thank you so much for joining us. on tuesday, the u. s and the philippines kicked off their annual joint military drills and this year is set to be the largest ever training event between the two countries with more than 17,000 participants. meantime china's military drills and simulated strikes over the weekend have drawn condemnation from taiwan's foreign minister, speaking exclusively to cnn, joseph wu said it seems beijing may be preparing to quote launch a war. against taiwan. let's go to hong kong with cnn's anna coren is standing by anna did did joseph will provide any specific evidence as to why he thinks that's what china is doing. no specific evidence that bianca other than the drills that that were taking place, you know,

around taiwan for three days. i mean, he is very concerned that that beijing is obviously considering war. that is, in his opinion, these three day military exercises as you say they finished on monday in response to taiwan's president, saying when meeting with u. s. house speaker kevin mccarthy and other lawmakers in california last week on her way back from a trip to central america, china had warned that they would quote resolutely fight back if they met. so really, taiwan should not be surprised by china's reaction, beijing said. the exercises, which included simulated targeted strikes and sealing off taiwan with its aircraft carrier, the shandong it was necessary to defend national sovereignty and territorial integrity. well, let's have a listen now to what taiwan's foreign minister joseph wu had to say. i look at the military sizes, exercises and also their referee. there seems

to be trying to get ready to launch a war against taiwan. the taiwanese government look at the chinese military threat a something that cannot be accepted and we condemned it. china's defense ministry a short time ago, bianca said that they continue to detect the presence of chinese war planes and vessels in taiwan's vicinity and that they remain on high alert back to you. the current live in hong kong for us, thank you so much. a key anniversary legislature in limbo and the u. s president returning to his irish fruits. we'll have a live report from belfast when we come back, and it's supposed to be a place of peace and serenity. but the past week, jerusalem's al aqsa compound has been a battleground will take you inside to find out how worshippers at the holy site are feeling. for the onenes finding new wayss to ensure the j job always gets done for the o ones wearing many hats. for the ones

bloodshed. he'll soon hold talks with the british prime minister who greeted him on the tarmac and will also meet with the five parties that make up northern ireland's power sharing agreement. cnn's nic robertson is live from belfast. to discuss the significance of the visit. nick, it's interesting. i've detected some frustration in britain about this visit. it's been referred to by some political commentators as a blink and you'll miss it trip from the president and the fact that the political meetings have been less choreographed and the personal events that he's undertaking. what if anything, do you think can be achieved here? certainly the president can add his voice to all those who would urge and in this case very subtly, the democratic unionist party to look at the economic benefits of the windsor framework that the prime minister and his negotiators worked out with the european union back in february. the president supports that and his

mission here, and i think you're right people had expected and hoped, particularly on the nationalist side, head sort of irish side he had hoped for more from the president. but that's part of the problem for the for the president here, part of the delicacy of his visit and the tough political time that it comes out because he is perceived as being very irish and up here in northern ireland, that means he his perceived as being sort of pro, the nationalist cause and is not being seen as a friend of unionism. in fact, some of those democratic unionist politicians have have said that they wouldn't take kindly to pressure from direct pressure from president biden to support the windsor. framework and to go into the power sharing government, but that's going to underscore the speech the president gives here today at the ulster city university, where it's going to do a ribbon cutting ceremony at a new brand new campus there that notion that the prime minister has talked about that it's the

economy here that's going to underpin the peace going forward , and the economy is catered as well as it can be under the windsor framework, and therefore the democratic unionist party should get back into political office. it will be subtle and undertone to that, and we know that the president will meet as you said with members of those five parties. we understand it's the leaders of those five parties unlikely to be all together in the same room at the same time, but of course, the most sensitive but the one that you would like to be the fly on the wall at would be the one with jeffrey donaldson. hmm. if only nic robertson live in belfast. thank you, and we'll have much more on biden's visit on early start in about 30 minutes time after week of escalating tensions that have erupted into violence, israel is moving to bring calm to one of the world's holiest sites. benjamin netanyahu's government is banning all non muslims from the sacred area that jews call the temple mount and muslim school, haram al sharif until the end of ramadan. the area includes the al aksa mosque,

which is really police raided twice last week. cnn's salma abdelaziz takes us inside that compound. a delicate balance that governs in binds this holy site is under strength. my producer and i, both muslim born were granted access to film at the al aqsa compound by the custodians of the site. only muslims are allowed to pray here under a long running, but unwritten status quououououo that worshippers tell us is slowly being eroded. non muslims can visit the complex only during certain hours. that i feel i feel pain. true pain inside this woman tells me this is a place of worship, not a place for occupation or provocation. this is what she means, while we speak a group of largely jewish visitors passes by the mosque under police escort women demonstrate by reciting the koran louder and

louder. this mountaintop is revered by jews to call it temple mount. a growing movement of jewish extremists is demanding to perform prayers here that could upend the status quo. we witnessed at least two men praying as police stand by. we've seen several small groups like this of non muslim worshippers passing through the complex as muslims continue to pray inside the mosque. this is where the friction is. this is where the controversy lies. jordan is the custodian of the grounds, but that role is becoming increasingly symbolic, experts say, because it is israel that controls the security checks at entry points and therefore access. the director general of al aqsa sees the increasing visits of jewish extremists under police escort as a provocation. no matter coming in all confidence. i see these visits as an attack on our

holy site. he tells me and i warned the government of israel to stay away from al aqsa mosque because any violation here drags down the entire region knowledge and there are tons at the gates , small groups of jewish radicals, saying the temple will be built. a reference to a far right fringe call to build a third temple on the sacred grounds. prime minister netanyahu insists he is committed to keeping the status quo but under his government, the most far right in israel's history, extremist voices are growing louder and stronger. all this makes an already extremely contentious place. ever more of a tinderbox. one event here can and has sparked deadly cycles of violence across the region. is seen as a political symbol as well as a religious one by the arab world. the complex lies in the heart of east jerusalem, which most of the international community considers to be under

israeli occupation, but which israel sees as part of its united capital is our life. it is the breath we breathe, he says. it is an ideology that we carry in our minds. enter the dome of the rock area designated for women to witness the afternoon prayer. some go to great links to get here passing multiple checkpoints, but they tell us they find some peace when they arrive. of course, i don't feel safe. she tells me everything can change in an instant, always scared, but i'm here because i have faith in god. this prayer passed peacefully as most do, but here, even quiet warship is not a guarantee. i think what's interesting about being inside those prayer halls as i was yesterday is that those women were leaving the politics at the door. this for them is a spiritual place. but this is a
