for me? >> what is great about watching someone doing an exercise is always how they behave in the rest of their life. if you cheat here, if you do half reps that means that -- everything you do in your life you do it half. you did full reps from the beginning to the end all the way down, full reps. you did full reps and doing it the right way so that says in everything in life you want to do everything 100%. >> after getting a good look at myself i think i will be spending more time in the gym and less time at the dinner table. thank you for watching. you can catch my full interviews with arnold and andy any time you want on max and join us every friday night to find out who is talking next. welcome to overviewers,
11:01 pm
watching here in the united states and around the world. ahead on cnn newsroom, top african leaders push for peace. the group set to arrive in russia soon after wrapping up talks in kyiv. are the proposals gaining traction? blinken heads to china with relations on a downward spiral. america's secretary of state is looking to calm the waters with his visit. and potential war crimes in sudan. a cnn investigation. live from cnn. this is cnn newsroom. >> first we start with breaking news out of uganda where police say at least 25 people were killed and eight others injured when armed rebels attacked a school near the border.
11:02 pm
our larry is following developments very closely and joins me now live. larry what more can you tell us about the group that the government said is behind this terrorist attack? >> we are learning more about what happened at this secondary school. it's it's in the west near the border of congo. the spokesperson for the military operations in the eastern democratic republic of congo said about 20 to 25rebels from the adf attacked the school friday night and they essentially massacred this poor students, at least 26 were killed in this attack. eight were wounded and are receiving treatment. some of them in critical condition. we are also hearing the military spokesperson that at least six students were kidnapped during the operation and when they were done they
11:03 pm
set the school on fire and as we speak right now there is supposed to be a fire that's burning at the school so it's possible that these numbers could increase. they suspect there could be bodies, some people killed and the bodies still inside the school as it burns. they haven't been able to put out the fire. it's a really horrible scene. some pictures already circulating on social media showing bodies lying in blood in the school and one of the worst attacks this country has seen. they have attacked before, there were suicide attacks in 2021 and after that the military and the military of congo started joint operations to stamp out the adf. the president has previously said that the adf is nothing. they will be defeated, that the military has stamped out other armed groups but the adf started here in uganda in 1995,
11:04 pm
1996 and then crossed over into the eastern part of congo. it is now said to be one of the most dangerous, one of the deadliest of the armed groups that operates in the eastern part of congo. this now -- this latest attack shocking the nation and showing the fear that these armed groups pose not just in the eastern drc but in the west. >> reporting there on breaking development. thank you. russia's president said that he now has nuclear weapons on stand by and that's where putin launched his invasion of ukraine more than a year ago. speaking friday putin boasted about the number of nukes russia has. >> we have more of these weapons than nato countries do. they know that and they keep
11:05 pm
telling us to start negotiations on reductions. you know what? they can shove it. >> he said there's a serious danger of nato being drawn further into the war by supplying military weapons to ukraine and he said more nuclear weapons will be sent to belarus throughout the summer as a warning to the west about supporting ukraine. on the frontlines ukraine said its forces sometimes have to fight for every meter as they make slow headway in their offensive. officials say that ukrainian troops continue their advance around bakhmut without giving details and they report pushing russian troops back by up to a kilometer in the south but they have to navigate a maze of defensive areas while being hit by russian air strikes. a group of african leaders is expected in st. petersburg
11:06 pm
in the coming hours for a meeting with putin. their goal, to pitch their peace plan for russia and ukraine. a day after doing the same with president zelenskyy in kyiv. the african leaders calling for a deescalation of the conflict and negotiations. mr. zelenskyy said there is nothing to talk about with moscow as long as russian troops in ukraine. for more now, we are following developments from london. the group of african leader is going to meet with the russian leader. what message will they deliver after their visit to ukraine? >> from their perspective part of this delegation, the message is clear. it is a call for deescalation on both sides. this has been touted as a peace mission. it's the first of it's kind. for this particular delegation of african leaders. we heard yesterday from south africa's president speaking
11:07 pm
alongside president zelenskyy in kyiv. he said that he believes that on the part of the african leaders and the global community that this war needs to end sooner rather than later but believes that it can only be ended through diplomatic means, through negotiation. of course this isn't the first time we have seen efforts or calls for russia and ukraine to come to the negotiating table. we have seen efforts by the likes of turkey and by china and throughout this president zelenskyy has been pretty clear on where he stands when it comes to the potential for negotiation. his line of course remains that russia needs to withdraw all of its troops across ukraine's territory. take a listen. >> today as i said many times making it very clear that to allow any negotiations now is to freeze the war. to freeze everything.
11:08 pm
pain, and suffering. >> now of course this delegation of african leaders is set to meet with president putin today. president zelenskyy was skeptical when cames to questions for a road map for peace. he highlighted his calls for the release of political prisoners. it's something he has asked the delegation to repeat in its meeting with putin later today but of course this is a region which has long held close ties with moscow, dating back to the cold war. there are real concerns not only around the peace situation between russia and ukraine but of course concerns for the african continent, not least when it comes to the question of food security which has been a concern across the world since the beginning of the invasion of ukraine. that was certainly a topic discussioned yesterday with president zelenskyy. questions around the black sea grain deal. many countries in african depend to varying degrees on grain and fertilizer exports
11:09 pm
from russia and ukraine. that is expected to be another focus today on the agenda when it comes to that meeting with putin. >> thank you. the united states secretary of state took off from washington a few hours ago to start his long delayed trip to china. anthony blinken is trying to help rising tensions with china and establish better lines of communication. he said greater dialogue can help both sides avoid misunderstandings that can lead to conflict. it comes two weeks after their navies had a close tall. the united states said a chinese war ship cut in front of an american destroyer forcing to slow down to avoid a collision. the united states hopes the trip to china will help stabilize the situation but at the same time officials are keeping their expectations in check. >> a high stakes visit with
11:10 pm
low expectations. the secretary of state heads to china, trying to reopen important lines of communication. >> intense competition requires sustained diplomacy to ensure that competition doesn't veer into confrontation or conflict. >> his trip was canceled once before after the united states shot down a chinese spy balloon that flew over sensitive united states sites in february. since then relations have declined. the serious of dangerous encounters between two of the most powerful militaries on earth turning up the tensions. in late may a chinese fighter jet sliced in front of a united states air craft in international air forcing the larger, heavier united states plane to fly through the wake of the chinese jet. days later in the strait a chinese navy ship cut in front
11:11 pm
of a united states destroyer. china said the united states was there for provocation. the defense secretary shared a hand shake with his chinese counterpart even as they rejected a formal meeting. he said friday that he is ready for dialogue. >> a door is open in the -- my phone is -- my phone line is open and so, they can pick up the phone and call at any time. >> a senior white house official said dialogue is how mature, strong militaries react. at the highest levels of the military austin hasn't met with his chinese counterpart in a year. blinken is trying to thaw the frosty relations as china maintains a deep distrust about the intentions for the region. >> the united states needs to
11:12 pm
respect our core concerns. stop undermining china's security, and development interests in the name of competition. >> the state department is hoping for a realistic approach to manage the competition of world powers in a responsible way. if we want to make sure as we do that the competition that we have with china doesn't veer into conflict, the place you start is with communicating. >> lloyd austin said that the united states is working on a weapons draw down package for taiwan. the same way the united states has used to ship much of its weapons to ukraine. it seems at least that is on hold. there's no update on how soon that might come and it may be because the united states doesn't want to put that out there and risk something so sensitive as taiwan disrupting the attempt to reopen channels with china. cnn in the pentagon.

11:17 pm
into a humanitarian disaster as fighting rages between the country's warring factions. an aid group said the crisis recently forced 6,000 people to flee west darfur's capitol into chad. hundreds of them have been wounded some were in need of surgical care. fighting has also been reported in sudan's south darfur state where eight civilians were killed thursday and five villages were burned down. organizations say that atrocities are being committed. continuing to support the rsf throughout the months of fighting despite calls by united states and others for support to cease. in a cnn investigation we found the russian supply lines prolonging the conflict between the rsf and sudan's armed force
11:18 pm
that that has displaced around 2 million people since mid- april and pushed the country further into humanitarian crisis. the rsf denies links to the mercenaries and any involvement in mass rape. we verified incidents of rape done by the rsf including one which was captured on video. we feel it's important in the face of the rsf's repeated denials to broadcast part of that video. we must warn you, it is graphic and disturbing. cnn's chief international investigative correspondent brings us this story. >> the fighting on the streets of sudan is relentless. cease fires have not held. forces accused of genocide returning to a well worn play
11:19 pm
book. terrorize, expell, and ethnically cleanse. the rsf are currently engaged in a fight for dom nance with the sudan army. years before that rivalry spilled blood they were implicated in atrocities. the damage brought by the forces so extensive you can see it from satellite images. this is west darfur. hundreds killed, whole districts razed to the ground and it's not only there that is burning. this is andor. on the ground it looks like this. these scenes sadly familiar in
11:20 pm
darfur. 20 years ago the region collapsed in to genocide. the same rsf leadership in place as their men killed, occupied and raped. now once again women's bodies are part of the field of war. this video is too disturbing to broadcast in full but it goes onto show a girl believed to be just 15 years old being raped. you see here a man in light colored fatigues matching those worn by the rsf. we have paused the video just before the camera pans to show another soldier wearing the same uniform forcing himself onto the prone girl. cnn verified the area where this happened. we are not revealing the exact location to protect our sources and the young girl. this is not an isolated incident. we received and reviewed dozens of cases where women say they
11:21 pm
were raped by rsf soldiers. identifying them by their light colored fatigues and the insignis on the right shoulders. who is complicit in this pain? the rsf's key ally the russian mercenary group has been sustaining their fight and supplying arms. we will show you how. this is a cargo plane sitting at a air base. a previous cnn investigation exposed how this russian cargo plane was providing the rsf with deadly arms a russian naval base in syria by a controlled base in libya. this starts just days before the war starts in sudan. libya, syria, and back and it picks up pace.
11:22 pm
what's interesting is the new focus on the city where it goes next. the capitol of the central african republic. after the exposure of the libya route into darfuo became important for the rsf. eyewitnesses at key transit points and intelligent active in the area said arms and supplies from this transported overland using the truck captured here and others like it. first to a base and then into south darfur. putting their thumb on the scales to secure access to sudan's resources through darfur creating chaos and terror, helping tip the balance of power in their war in ukraine, whatever the cost. cnn. south sudan. >> united states condemnation of the violence in sudan has
11:23 pm
been swift with the state department's african affairs bureau issuing this warning. rape, murder, targeted ethnic based killing, the destruction of villages, these are the horrors that the war has brought back. credible sources place blame at the feet of rsf and allied groups, attacks on civilians in sudan by any party must end. coming up a federal jury reaches a verdict for the gunman accused of killing almost a dozen people in the tree of life synagogue. details coming up.

11:28 pm
about to receive. as we said this type of filing is normal and trump and his legal team agreed to it. with trump's talkative track record, friday's filing seemed anything but routine. the court order that smith is seeking is quite strict and covers a variety of possible situations, paula reid is in washington with those details. >> the special counsel's office is asking the judge overseeing the trump document case to sign off on a set of rules for protective sensitive information in this case. now according to this request both sides, both prosecutors and defense attorneys have agreed to the rules about how to handle the sensitive evidence that will soon be shared with defense attorneys. they aren't talking about classified information here. we are talking about the other sensitive information that is part of this case. now among the rules that prosecutors are seeking here, have to do with the defendants,
11:29 pm
former president trump and his aide. they are insisting the two not be able to view any of the evidence that is shared with attorneys without their attorneys present. they also request they not be given copies or be able to take notes and then take those notes. the notes need to be protected and kept safe by the attorneys. prosecutors say that in this request that they worry that sharing this information with the public or others could compromise other ongoing investigations, witnesses or other people who haven't been charged. we know the special counsel is of course looking at the events and around january 6th and efforts to undermine the 2020 election. we know that many of the witnesses in the trump documents case are also interviewed in the january 6th investigation. now when it comes to classified information, they aren't quite there yet because the trump attorneys need clearances before they can handle any of those sensitive, secret that are at the heart of this case. the former president is accused
11:30 pm
of taking over 30 documents. now early their week the judge overseeing this case told the lawyers to begin that process to get their clearances. she wants the update next week. the lawyers have said they are already in touch with the justice department to get that process started to eventually be able to view classified evidence as well. paula reid. cnn, washington. it could be argued that the proposed protective order is for trump's own good to discourage him from hurting his own defense. cnn anchor john berman spoke with about this with john dean who was white house counsel under president nixon. >> this is standard procedure with donald trump because we know that he cannot keep it zipped and will chatter up and share information that should not be shared. so, this is as fairly standard protective order under the
11:31 pm
federal rules of criminal procedure. the judge was the magistrate judge who issued the rules who is a signed with judge cannon but is far more seasoned in criminal trials. in fact has a criminal trial background. he was in the department of justice and probably knows jack smith. >> john, you know you said the former president can't keep it zipped. what are the types of things that he could say or would be likely to say during a political speech that could get him in trouble in a courtroom? >> well he has had a consistent habit of making admissions against interest. in fact the defamation case by jean carrol against him was largely based on his own admissions. both in a deposition as well as outside of the deposition. he got an action filed against
11:32 pm
him because of his inability to keep a lip closed. so, you know who knows where he will go. but he could -- he could give leads to others as to what the government was doing that is going to be shown to him as it relates to his case. so these are the sort of thing that this protective order seeks to caution and protect. >> and pennsylvania robert bowers has been convicted of the deadliest attack on jewish people in the united states. 11 were killed and six wounded when he stormed into the tree of life synagogue in october of 2018. the jury described for five hours before returning guilty verdicts on 63 charges. the convictions mean that the trial now moves to the penalty phase. the jury must decide whether to sentence robert bowers to death
11:33 pm
or to life in prison without parole. danny freeman reports. >> silence in the courtroom friday morning as judge coalville read the verdicts. 63 federal charges, guilty on all counts. 22 of those charges punishable by death. the jury agreed with federal prosecutors that the man who killed 11jewish worshipers and injured six others in october of 2018 targeted them specifically because they were jewish. >> i'm feeling a sense of relief that after four and a half years the world has heard about the horrible acts and that the shooter is being held responsible for those horrible acts. >> throughout more than two weeks of testimony prosecutors showed how the defendant turned a sacred house of worship into a hunting ground. body camera video and 911 calls revealed chaos and terror.
11:34 pm
jurors heard 84-year-old bernice simons 911 called as she held a prayer shawl to her husband's bullet wounds. we're being attacked she cried out before being shot and killed. the defense didn't dispute their client killed the 11 but the attorneys tried to argue that the attack was motivated by immigration related conspiracy theories. >> this was an anti semetic incident, period, end of the statement. >> community leaders in pittsburgh say that friday's result was a victory but the death penalty part looms large. >> while we are pleased with the verdict, very pleased, we know that there is still more to come. this is only the first phase. >> it's difficult to say the emotions we feel right now. one of relief obviously, that the jury returned a full verdict of guilty to all 63
11:35 pm
counts. but there's also a degree of worry because this is just the first third of the trial and in a sense it was the least complicated part. >> now as we look ahead to the death penalty part of this trial one thing we will look for is exactly what kind of defense will be mounted. in this guilt pha seconds, the prosecution called 60 witnesses while the defense team called no one. now the gunman's attorneys will be fighting to spare his life. danny freeman. cnn, pittsburgh, pennsylvania. you are watching cnn newsroom. we'll be right back.
