hello, and welcome to all of you watching us here in the united states, canada, and all around the world, i'm kim brunhuber. ahead on "cnn newsroom." it's a holiday weekend here in america, and airports are busy. if you're packing your bags to travel, we'll have a look at delays and what weather has in store for you. plus, personal data of millions of americans compromised by a massive cyber attack. what you need to know about the hack. and we are live at buckingham palace where king charles's birthday parade, trooping the color. >> announcer: this is "cnn newsroom" with kim brunhuber. severe storms and two holidays may cause travel headaches for millions across the u.s. over the next few days. the bad weather is complicating travel for those celebrating father's day on sunday and juneteenth on monday. 60 million people are waking up

today under severe storm risks. yesterday saw more than 8600 flights in the u.s. delayed according to flight aware. nearly 600 flights were canceled on friday. today was off to a better start. even so, around 120 flights have been canceled so far with just over 500 delays. from colorado to florida, severe stores produced very large hail, damaging winds and a few tornadoes. oklahoma and surrounding states are in the cross hairs. cnn's pete muntean has the busy holiday travel from regan national airport. >> reporter: the federal holiday for juneteenth is not until monday, although so many people are traveling right now. at one point at ragan national airport the line is where i am standing, 2.73 million people screened at airports across the country just yesterday according to the tsa. that is 10,000 people shy than the pandemic era set on the

friday before memorial day. 40% higher. the numbers are huge all week. about 2.4 million people each day leading up to this weekend. here's what's happening. summer travel, father's day weekend, federal holiday and more states are recognizing juneteenth as a holiday. going to be so busy in the skies. the faa says that thursday was the biggest day for air traffic it has seen since the start of the pandemic. 52,000 commercial flights scheduled, but 50,000 scheduled on friday. so now we're seeing really agen k -- a genesis of travel. and a pent-up demand for travel. travels like hopper say they're paying a bit more because of that. the in fact, the summer average round trip ticket domestically, $288. this weekend they're paying about $312.

pete muntean, cnn, ragan national airport. today's threat of severe weather follows an outbreak of dangerous storms on thursday. the national weather service confirmed that six tornadoes touched down in northwest ohio and southeast michigan, including an ef-2 that tore through toledo. they have issued a state of emergency after an ef-3 tornado hit on perry ton, texas. 140 mile an hour storm. it killed three people and wiped out much of the town. >> reporter: we have major damage now. >> oh, my god. >> reporter: terrifying video of a deadly tornado captured by storm chasers. >> oh, my god. >> reporter: as the powerful twister leveled much of the small town of perryton, texas, killing at least three sending hundreds of people to the hospital. >> it was just barely sprinkling and all of a sudden a tornado formed and it just dropped on

us. it came out of nowhere. there was no sirens. no time to get to shelter. i thought i was going to die. >> jamie james home is still standing but nearly everything around it is destroyed. the community of roughly 8,000 residents is left in shambles. this was an immensely powerful tornado. take a look over there. that vehicle was flipped completely on its roof slammed into the building. from the brick structures on the street to mobile homes completely flattened. >> total devastation. >> reporter: cell phone snapped in half. >> i kind of feel like it was almost a worst case scenario. >> reporter: the weather service gives notice as quickly as it can. this storm didn't look particularly dangerous at first. >> i never heard the sirens and

the reason why is when they issued the tornado warning, the tornado was already in town doing damage. >> reporter: xcel energy sales the city's power sources were shut off for safety purposes. residents begin to pick up the pieces, including at the fire station which took a direct hit but still has trucks assisting in the cleanup efforts. >> the loss is unthinkable. i can't put it into words. >> reporter: james tells us one of the victims was a local shelter volunteer who was always kind to her. if she survived, she would have been one of the first to help. >> she served people. friendly. hugging people like me who needed it so bad. so many good people in this town. >> reporter: now this area is main street. this downtown part of perryton taking a direct hit. cleanup crews have been out here trying to move the debris, overturned trees, downed power lines. the emotional scars will take

longer to heal. lucy kafanov, perryton, texas. the federal criminal case against donald trump is heading into the discovery phase. that's where government prosecutors must give trump's lawyers all of the evidence they have against the former president including material seized from his home last year and special counsel jack smith wants to make sure the evidence he turns over won't be leaked. cnn's paula reid is in washington with those details. >> reporter: the special counsel's office is asking the judge overseeing the trump document case to sign off on a set of rules for protecting sensitive information in this case. now, according to this request, both sides, prosecutors and defense attorneys have agreed to these rules about how to handle the sensitive evidence that will soon be shared with defense

attorneys. they're not talking about classified information here, we're talking about the other sensitive information that is part of this case. now among the rules that prosecutors are seeking here have to deal with the defendants. former president trump and his aide, walt nada. they are insisting they can't view any evidence without their attorney's present. they don't want to be able to take notes and take those notes. the prosecutors say 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 looking at the events and efforts to undermine the 2020 election. many of the witnesses in the trump document case are also interviewed in the january 6th

investigation. now when it comes to classified information, they're not quite there yet because the trump attorneys need clearances before they can handle any of those sensitive secrets that are at the heart of this case. the former president is accused of taking over 30 documents. now earlier this week the judge overseeing this case, aileen cannon, she told the lawyers to begin that process to get their clearances. she wants an update next week. the lawyers, todd blanch and chris keyes say they're already in the process to get that started so they can eventually view classified evidence as well. paula reid, cnn, washington. more american state governments, businesses, schools and other institutions say they've been hit in the recent waive of global cyber attacks. a gang of cyber criminals seeking ransom payments from the victims is behind these attacks. oregon says personal information on 3.5 million driver's licenses

and state i.d.s were affected by the breach. louisiana's governor's office reported more than 3 million driver's licenses have been impacted. we have more from new york. >> reporter: officials say this amounts to cyber extorsion. cyber criminals demanding ransom to the tune of millions of dollars in order to return the data that they've stolen. now u.s. government agencies say so far they haven't received any demands. a global cyber attack likely exposing the data of private americans and hitting u.s. agencies including the department of energy. >> this is an ongoing investigation impacting not just louisiana but major businesses, governmental agencies and organizations around the world. >> reporter: federal officials are blaming a russian-speaking gang of hackers who call themselves klop. >> we don't have a full understanding of what the

impacts are or whether there are impacts, but we're working through it very aggressively. >> reporter: the attack is part of a broader and ongoing hacking campaign exploiting a vul vulnerability in a program called move it. the company behind the software says they are working to fix vulnerabilities in their code. >> most of the time the security people in organizations are very technical people. incredibly smart people. unfortunately, what i find is they sometimes forget about that human element. >> reporter: cybersecurity expert erich kron says they should focus on human engineering. >> if we can get the human element handled in the cybersecurity side, then we would see a whole lot less of this stuff in the news. >> reporter: u.s. officials say so far there is no evidence that this group of hackers is coordinating in any way with the russian government, and so far no u.s. intelligence or military

operations have been compromised as a result of this attack. reporting in new york, gloria pazmino, back to you. joining me now is cybersecurity expert and ceo of cyber sheath, eric noonan. the scope of this is quite worrisome. >> it really is, kim. this is a very broad attack, and unlike a targeted nation state attack where we typically see an adversary like china or russia target a specific agency, we've seen federal agencies, state and local agencies, commercial organizations all targeted. so the breadth of the attack is sick can't for sure. >> yeah. as we heard in that piece, we don't know exactly what was compromised, what information was exposed or exploited. mainly a

many agencies are still assessing. potentially what are the consequences here? >> we think this attacker and csia has done a tremendous amount of good work at the federal level letting organizations know what they can do to respond be to this attack, and the attackers made thard intentions known. the consequences here are ultimately financial. this particular attacker has financial motivations which alludes to the wide net cast to get the maximum number of victims. ultimately what this attacker is after is financial gain. they've even issued statements stating that that's their aim and their motivation here. so we know that's ultimately -- it's your data being held hostage while you negotiate this ransomware payment with this particular attacker. >> so you talk about this attacker. we heard there officials are blaming russian-speaking hackers. what more can you tell us about that group? >> so this group's well known

for their financial motivations and ultimately has told us that that's what their motivations are in issuing statements and have been very communicative with their victims because ultimately they want to get paid. for them, this is a business model. this is a well-known attacker who we understand their methodology and what their aims are. unlike nation states and hopefully from their perspective they wouldn't want to be uncovered at all. night and day from this particular hacker who's financially motivated and a nation state adversary. >> we had warnings from some states where driver's licenses were compromised. this is important for folks who might think they might be vulnerable, concretely, what steps can they take out there to protect themselves? >> so, unfortunately, they truly are the ultimate victims. that's the nature of these

supply chain attacks. there's this ripple effect. ultimately at the end of the day, it's the individual's data that's held hostage and that can be sold over the dark web for, again, more financial gain. so individuals can do credit monitoring. they can use a robust password manager, change their passwords and do those kinds of things. but ultimately we need to get out of the position where we're passing the responsibility down to the lowest level of victim in these attacks. we really need government agencies, corporate entities, businesses to be regulated so that they have a -- really a fiduciary duty to protect this information, to report when they have a breach position. we know expectation that would never be breached. we want to know you have a resilient plan when breached and you can recover from the breach. that's where csia has done a great job focusing on resiliency. until we get regulation,

unfortunately the responsibility will ultimately be pushed down to the end victim. >> more needs to be done because obviously this problem is not going away. eric noonan, really appreciate your analysis. a preesh you being here with us. >> thank you, kim. want to take you now to buckingham palace. these are live pictures where we're expecting king charles and queen camilla to be making their way to the parade for the trooping of color. a military is separate from his birthday. ever since 1748 the monarch's official birthday is celebrated in the summer when the weather is better. the king will join 1500 parading soldiers and 300 horses partaking in the ceremony. go to cnn's anna stewart who is at buckingham palace for us. anna, take us through the day. what are we expecting to see here? >> reporter: well, you can probably already hear the

military band behind me. this is just getting ready. the soldiers are taking their positions in the parade and the next big thing we expect to see, of course, is king charles and queen camilla leaving palace. they will go down where the trooping of the colour is taking place. this is an old ceremonial position. it's taken place for 200 years. you can't better monarchs having birthdays that are conducive to parades in terms of weather. the coronation five weeks ago, the rain really did ruin the parade to some extent. today the weather is beautiful. the sun is shining. potentially a little bit hot for all of those soldiers in their thick woolly tunics and the big bear skin hats. there were some faints during the rehearsal. hopefully not today. this will be a long procession and then quite a long ceremony. the trooping the colour dates

back to when regiments will need to show their regimental flag and pass it through the regiments so soldiers will recognize it in battle. that's where it dates back from. each year these are the household divisions. five foot guards, two cavalry and each year one of the foot guard gets to troop their colour. this year it is the this division and prince charles is the leader. a passing of the baton. we are expecting the king to be leaving the palace very shortly. i was told at quarter past potentially we're running a little bit late. we will be seeing the king on horseback. this will be the first time we've seen a monarch on horseback to inspect the troops and be part of this ceremony since 1986.

queen elizabeth ii did do it sometime before retiring into a carriage. we'll see in the carriage today queen camilla and kate, the duchess -- sorry, not the duchess of cambridge, she is now the princess of wales. and other members of the royal family will be on horseback. i expect to see princess anne who is colonel and she was colonel of the scotts guard. and we will see all of this taking off fairly soon. kim? >> you went through an extensive list of who will be there but, you know, we sort of have to talk about who isn't there. >> reporter: yeah. of course, prince harry will not be there today. unclear whether he was invited to be a part of this at all but as he's not a working member of the royal family, you wouldn't expect him to be. it is a tricky one for harry.

he did serve in the blues and royals. it plays a huge role today. they will be part of the procession for king charles taking him from the palace. but i think for prince harry, wherever he is, it might be a tricky day to look at all of the ceremony taking place here. the other notable absence will be prince andrew, also a serving member in the british army. no longer a working member of the royal family for obvious reasons. we don't expect to see him here either today. >> appreciate it, anna stewart. we'll see you later in the show. thank you so much. still ahead, much more on the royal celebration. we'll take you live to the parade grounds with military ceremony hopefully to begin in 15 minutes if they're not running late. plus, african members heading to ukraine. why president zelenskyy says big changes are needed before it's time to talk. stay with us.

president vladimir putin. their goal to pitch their peace plan the day after with president volodymyr zelenskyy. while they were there russia conducted what ukraine called a massive and coordinated airstrike on the capitol. six people were wounded in the region and at least three people were destroyed. the african president said it's time for a break in the fighting. >> there must be a deescalation of the conflict. today as we were here we had missile strikes and those types of activities are not good for foresetting peace. >> the african leaders called for negotiations between moscow and kyiv. more on this bashir joins us from london. take us through the african

leaders and the reaction? >> reporter: this has been touted as a peace mission. they were in kyiv and will be meeting with president putin later today. the message from the african leaders has been clear. they are calling for a deescalation. a deescalation on both sides. we heard from him there and he spoke alongside president zelenskyy in kyiv saying that an end to this conflict is needed sooner rather than later. this should be sought through diplomatic means, namely through negotiations. of course, we have seen efforts in the past by other world leaders trying to negate some sort of peace agreement in russia and ukraine. seen such efforts through turkey and most recently from china to no avail. of course, this is the first visit or peace mission of this kind from the african delegation, but president zelenskyy throughout russia's invasion of ukraine has been very clear on where the ukrainian government stands when it comes to its red lines in

terms of opening the potential for negotiations. president zelenskyy reiterating that message yesterday that there can be no prospect for negotiations while russian troops are still on ukrainian territory. take a listen. >> translator: today as i said many times making it very clear that to allow any negotiations with russia now while the occupier is on our land is to freeze the war, to freeze everything, pain and suffering. >> reporter: there's also some skepticism with president zelenskyy with this roadmap. he did send a message to the african leaders to call for prisoners to be released from crimea, prisoners captured in crimea which of course was annexed back in 2014. we heard from the kremlin spokesperson, dmitry peskov, saying president putin be is open to a solution to what they described as the ukrainian

problem. have, of course, hopes for any success when it comes to potential mediation aren't high right now. >> and then speaking of putin, he was raising some eyebrows with more nuclear saber-rattling. >> reporter: that's right. president putin yesterday speaking at the international economic forum in st. petersburg confirming that a first batch of tactical nuclear weapons have been deployed, placed on stand by in belarus. this is the first batch. it is anticipated that a full transfer will be completed by the end of the summer as it has long been suggested by the kremlin. of course, president putin has repeatedly warned about the potential for the use of tactical nuclear weapons but he was clear when he was asked about this that for the kremlin in his eyes, this is a matter of containment. these weapons have only been developed, according to the kremlin, in order to guarantee russia's state security. take a listen.

>> translator: the use of nuclear weapons undoubtedly is theoretically possible for russia. for russia it is possible if there's a threat to our territorial integrity, independence and sovereignty, to the existence of the russian state. >> reporter: at this stage the u.s. government says it is monitoring the situation with regards to russia's deployment of tactical nuclear weapons in belarus. it has no indications the kremlin would plan to use these weapons against ukraine in the imminent future. they are changing their nuclear posturing at this stage, but this is a concern. we heard from the ukrainian ambassador to the u.k., in fact, issuing a warning saying the west should be taking this very, very seriously. >> thank you very much. nada bashir, appreciate it. authorities in uganda are in hot pursuit of suspects who attacked a secondary school in the western part of the country killing at least 26 people.

welcome back to all you watching us here in the united states, canada, and all around the world, i'm kim brunhuber. this is "cnn newsroom." any moment now king charles will begin his first official birthday celebration since taking the crown. going to show you images from london where a military parade called trooping the colour is underway. king charles was actually born in november but british monarchs usually hold the official ceremony in the summer when the weather is more ideal. let's go to cnn's anna stewart again at buckingham palace. the king running late, it seems. >> reporter: possibly. i don't think king charles likes to be late. we did see a car that looked like it might have had a sovereign escort to it arriving at buckingham palace. it's possible he has arrived

there. hopefully all of this will be getting underway soon. this is a ceremony that dates back hundreds of years. it is the official birthday parade for a british monarch. something we've had every single year for her majesty the queen elizabeth ii, the late queen. yesterday was beautiful and today is a special one because it is king charles' first. we'll be seeing him on horseback for inspecting of the troops and the procession which should take off very shortly. we're looking at the gates. you can see soldiers in position. everyone you see right here on the picture is from a household division. you can see members of the blues and royals on the cavalry, the horses. you can see foot guards lining the gate. and right now we can see two soldiers approaching buckingham palace, perhaps to get that procession underway. king charles will be joined by other members of the royal family for this. we will also see princess anne,

the colonel of the blues and royals. we'll see the prince of wales, the colonel of the welsh guard. the welsh guard are the ones trooping the colours. queen ka plal is the colonel of the grenadier guard. princess of wales, kate, she is the colonel of the irish guard. we might be seeing her in a carriage as opposed to horseback. this will take off and it will head down the mall where trooping the colour will take place. this is a much shorter procession than the coronation. the weather is better today. it's a little bit hot. in the rehearsals, last weekend. it was a little hot for the footguards considering they're wearing thick woolen tunics. you can imagine how heavy and hot the bearskin hats are and

they have to wear them for many hours and perform in truex lens and it is not easy. it is something they rehearse. it does take place every year but it's never without its hiccups. now we're still waiting for king charles to leave buckingham palace for that procession. so things are running a little bit late, kim. hopefully we'll see things kick off soon. >> anna, you talked about the king being on a horse, and normally we might have concerns about a mounted monarch, but not in this case, right? >> reporter: king charles, if you consider his military career, he's got one of the strongest bonds with the armed forces of any monarch. he actually trained with the ref. he served with the royal marines. early on in his military career he was the qerim of the parachute regiment. he decided to go through the very grueling training for that,

just as he says, so he could look the soldiers in the eye when he took on that ceremonial role. he was the colonel of the welsh guard which is the regiment being trooped today and his son is the colonel of. prince of wales -- king charles is of course extremely competent on horseback so i don't think anyone's got any guams about t -- qualms about this. i'm sure this horse will be incredibly trained. there are 300 horses taking part. they go through a rigorous grooming process to make sure that there is not a hair out of place. so they should be gleaming and resplendant down the mall. >> the king a noted polo player back in the day anyway. so talk to me about the crowds out there, the mood in the crowd. what are the -- what's the anticipation now as we're still waiting for the king to show up there at buckingham palace?

>> reporter: well, for many people, it's given them a little bit of extra time to get a good spot along the procession route to have a look. i think everyone is in much anticipation at the moment. i can see here given everything it's gone a little bit quiet, particularly with some of the guards in place. we've had the national anthem being played. we've seen the king's royal horse artillery taking position. they'll be firing off a gun salute later in the day at the end of the trooping of the colour. the pre-game has taken place which means everyone's gone a little quiet and they're ready for this to take place. you're looking at live picture of the king's procession, those taking part in it ready to receive his majesty, the king, at this stage. everyone's waiting. let's hope this kicks off soon, kim. >> yeah. absolutely. so as we wait here, can you tell me a bit about the significance

for the king in his first trooping the colour ceremony here? >> reporter: i think for king charles this will be a poignant moment for more reasons than one. firstly, this is the first trooping of the colour for the king so that is significant in and of itself. but also because of the deep connection that king charles has with the armed forces and with all of the arms of it. le with the ref, with the marines, with the army. so for him, this is very much about strengthening that bond between the monarch and the forces and particularly of course the household division, which is what this ceremony really focuses on. there are two cavalry regiments and five food guard regiments. the trooping of the colour is when the flag is paraded around the parade. that is ceremonyially so all of them would recognize the

regimental flag in battle. it's done each year. it switches which foot guard will troop theirs. this year it is the welsh guard. that was a role king charles had before him. you're seeing the baton of history being passed on one generation to the next. i think it might also be a sober moment for king charles, a somber moment, really, considering that this is the first since his queen -- sis his mother, queen elizabeth ii passed, so i think there will be a thought to that. it will be triumph, jubilant, perhaps a little edge of sadness. >> all right. well said. anna stewart. listen, we're going to take a break right now. we're going to come back as soon as we see the king there for the trooping the colours sceremony.

the king, a little bit late in the ceremony. tell us what you're seeing and talk us through the parade. >> reporter: what we're seeing now is i think the king's procession is about to take off. live pictures of buckingham palace which is behind me. the procession will be taking off. we saw a car leaving the buckingham palace. we've heard the national anthem playing and i believe we should be seeing king charles on horseback with other members of the royal family. they should be leaving buckingham palace shortly. let's listen in because i think we can hear some of the military commands taking place. do you see the blues and royals on horseback? this is the regiment that prince harry, of course, served for

many years. and princess anne, princess royal, she is now colonel of the blues and royals. she is expected to be on horseback for this ceremonial procession today. all eyes on the gates of buckingham palace right now. we are looking there. you see the balcony shot, of course, above where expectedly king charles is leaving buckingham palace. that is where king charles will be appearing once the whole ceremony of trooping the colour has ended. all eyes beneath it at that gate where we should see king charles and the other members taking off. this is the king's troop royal horse artillery and the royal band. you'll hear lots of regimental music, of course, throughout the

day. lots of ceremony to take place. members of the household cavalry here passing by the gates of buckingham palace. making their way down the mall where they will be ending at horse guard's parade . >> i want to bring in royal watcher felicia mama da. as you're watching the same pictures here as we're waiting for king charles to begin the trooping of the colour, talk to me about the importance of this and the difference between this and what we saw at the coronation. >> so we were just talking about

what the difference is between this ceremony today and what we saw at the coronation. >> the coronation was very sober. it was very much about pageantry. it was almost like the disney medieval version of the family. this is much more connected to king charles. it is keying into his long relationship with the military. it is really proclaiming that this new monarch has a deep and abiding respect for the military. that's why you're seeing all of this glorious pageantry, military music, drummers, pipers, beautiful bearskin hats. >> hot. >> royal uniforms. all of the insignia are out here. very military focused. in fact, it's organized with military precision even though the monarch is a touch late. he's just on time for us. >> we are now looking at live pictures of the royal procession finally taking off leaving buckingham palace. you can see in a carriage there,

you can see queen camilla. queen camilla, of course, is colonel of the grenadier guard. you can see the princess of wales in resplendant green. she's joined by three children. and you're now looking at other members of the royal family who also hold the position of colonels within the royal family and members of the military, of course. you've got the colonel of the light guard, colonel of the coal string guards. all of this is being led, of course -- all of this being led by the household brigade. let's listen in. lots of cheers from the people gathered here to have a look at
