>> in jessica dean on capitol hill. this is cnn.[music] >> anchor: russia retaliates for the crimean bridge attack. adding a key if ukrainian port city for the third night in a row. this comes as officials tell cnn at the train has started to use this controversial cluster munitions that they received from the u.s. details just ahead.>> in washington, a federal grand jury investigating donald trump's

interference into the 2020 election is meeting right now. this could mean 1/3 indictment for the former president. we are following these major developing stories and many coming in right here to cnn news central. [music] >> cnn has learned that ukrainian combat troops are now hiring this controversial cluster munitions that the u.s. gave them. sources telling us that tactic is part of ukraine's counteroffensive and the pentagon officials are waiting to hear how effective they are in combat. cnn pentagon correspondent lauren lieberman is joining us on this.oren ããtell us what you are hearing. >> breonna, is only about last week that ukraine began receiving the u.s. provided cluster munitions. and part of the purpose of this was first to make sure that ukraine had enough artillery

ammunition with its counter offense of going slower than anticipated and slower than both ukraine and the west would like to see. but also to be able to use the effect of the cluster munitions to saturate a small area with a balance that the artillery itself carries to be able to attack russian defensive positions and formations. that's exactly what they are doing with these. at least according to the white house. a spokesperson for the nsc says they are using them as agreed between the sun and ukraine meaning that they are not being used in tight urban areas or against civilian targets. being used against russian defensive ones, lines that have been hard to breach and penetrate as the counteroffensive has taken. they disrupt russian former offensive and positions as ukraine tries to push forward with its counteroffensive. the question is how effective have they been? it was a controversial decision to send them because as first minute countries have banned the use of them. but because of their effect.

because of potential duds in these bomblets that can explode at a later time. it was a difficult decision from the by the administration to send them. the question of how effective the ããthat is not something officials are willing to learn from the ukrainian counterparts as they use these more throughout the combat. again, as they try to make progress in this counteroffensive. rihanna? >> all right, oren lieberman live at the pentagon. thank you for that report. boris? >> we want to focus on odessa. ukraine now were destruction, fire, and despair i should say has taken over. the crucial port city on the blacks he is recovering from 1/3 night of pounding russian attacks. this time ããat least one person was killed there. two others were killed and drone attacks are live. cnn crews in odessa saw the strikes firsthand as they lit up the night sky. craig president said that moscow was trying to take out his country's ability to export

grain that millions of people in developing nations rely on for food. cnn's alec marquart is in odessa for us and filed this report. >> reporter: odessa has never expressed anything like this since the beginning of the war. last nights attacks along would have been the worst on this city. but it was the third night in a row. there was a lot of damage done by russian drones and missiles. you can see here. this public has completely collapsed. we were told this was an administrative building. it's near the court that we cannot show you because of security reasons. you can see here that a door is still standing. that's about it. this is a pile of smoldering rubble and firefighters have been trying to put out. those fires and you can still see the smoke rising from them. it is not just this building that was destroyed. we believe by russian missile. but there's damage all around your windows. loan entrces knocked over. dust everywhere. from the shockwave of these

muscles ããyou could see the car sirens that are going off during this attack. that lasted around an hour and 1/2. it started between 2 am. we heard the air raid sirens. the red tracer rounds and flying into the sky to take down russian drones. and then the muscles started. i wanted you to listen to a little bit of what we've experienced overnight. [music] >> at least one person was killed here in odessa. a number of people injured, but odessa was not the only city that was hit. the southern port city of nikolai us was also attacked by russia there. at least 19 people were injured. now ããukraine's believed that this is directly tied to the brain deal. we know the odessa's board has been a target for the last three nights. some 63,000 tons of grain were destroyed in the second night of this attack. ukraine says this is in response to russia pulling out of that critical deal earlier this week. cnn, odessa.>> thank you to alex and his team for that. meanwhile, here in washington, a federal grand jury will

decide whether or not to indict former president donald trump over his alleged attempt to overturn the 2020 elections is meaning right now. it might be the final meeting before the grand jury votes on indictment. trump's lawyers have said that they have until today to respond to the special counsel's target letter. and they say whether or not trump will come in and testify to the grand jury. the former president is very unlikely. however to take the opportunity. cnn's kalin plans is out of the white house in dc for us. tell us what you have been seeing for us kalin. >> reporter: breonna, it's been a long day of work for the grand jury apparently. they do work behind closed doors. confidentially ããwe do know that they are hearing from at least one witness today. very likely two or more. and that one witness was in this morning. and his testimony appears to have gone a little long. his lawyer was late for another separate hearing that he had to appear for at 2 o'clock and got to the courtroom a little late

for that. because the apparent grand jury proceedings are still ongoing. but this is a grand jury that has heard so much evidence over so many months. not just starting with the special counsel's apartment last november. but even before that ããtheir witnesses. subpoenas ããthere are documents in, and all of that is going to be brought together in some way the justice department believes forms an indictment against the former president and potentially others as well. we know that'sg. just because we know the justice depa hasent that target letter to donald trump. indicating that he is very also identified for him a and couple of different criminal states that he's likely to be charged with related to potential obstruction of congress around january 6. one of the possible charges also it can spare see possible charge ã ãwhich means crumpled up in working with at least one other person on some of the actions that the justice department

believes. they can take the court that they believe that they could prove may be illegal. and so ããall this is coming together.we do not have any word on indictment yet. more will be one until it actually goes through the court system. until the justice department brings the indictment to the grand jury and presents it to them for approval. they vote on it in secret and then they presented to the court system court and will then have the indictment and hopefully we will get it not long after that. that may come today. but i really hope breonna, you, and i can all be patient.it may not be today. there could be many days ahead of us in this investigation. a grand jury court all these things can be quite unpredictable. and we do not know yet the next time the grand jury is scheduled to meet. >> yes. it is the waiting game for everyone. not the least for former president trump. caitlin polian's love for us in washington. thank you so much for that. i want to bring in cnn's

kristin holmes, who's in new jersey could she's near the former president bedminster golf club. and kristin, you have some new reporting on trumped effort to get the republican representatives to expunge his impeachment. is the really anything that they can do? >> reporter: breonna, that is the question. first of all ããwhen we talk about expunging these impeachments, it's important to know the clarification and context from the parliamentarian office. which they say there is no clear procedural consequence if you actually expunge these impeachments or put forward a proposal to do so. and it's not going to change the congressional records. these were votes that were taken in 2019 and 2020 that will remain on record. however, there has been a conversation about whether or

not house republicans would do this. it's something trump had suggested. they do know that it is something that when he's on the campaign trail, actually, voters have said why have house republicans not done this for you yet? it's something that mccarthy has said that he personally backs. we learn that any phone call with trump ããhouse speaker kevin mccarthy says that he personally backs his idea of this proposal to expunge his impeachment. but no promises were made. it was no promise that this is going to be voted on in any way. this was just a conversation in some parts ããsome ways did see him as though that mccarthy might be attempting to placate the former president because this became a conversation after trump was very angry. his advisors were very angry. when mccarthy did an interview in which he said that trump might not be the strongest candidate in 2024. so along with an apology came this concession or this backing of this expungement. but again ããit's not entirely

clear that it's even doable. we have multiple sources on the hill to say that even leadership does not believe that they have the votes to do this and pass this if it was to come up. >> anchor: yes. very interesting. however, kristin holmes, live for us in new jersey. as always, thank you. boris? >> let's dig deeper on the trump legal strategy with dave ehrenberg. he is the state attorney in palm beach county florida. dave, was great to see you. thanks for joining us. i am curious what you make of trump hiring a new attorney. john moreau, specifically focused on this special counsel probe into the 2020 election. >> reporter: good evening boris. he needs to buff up his legal team. he has hired people who have little expense on the national stage. people to try and help him with the confidential documents case that have no national security experience. and so, the more the better. the problem is that every time he disagrees with his lawyer's advice, he puts them on the

sidelines. ask christopher kies, who gave a $3 million retainer to and is a respected florida lawyer. a former florida solicitor general. he was shelved because trump did not like what he was selling. so ããyes, you can hire all the lawyers you want. if you don't listen to them, they do not mean anything. >> trump loitered lawyer team was caught off guard by the [indiscernible] they are trying to figure out their witnesses and evidence per the special counsel might have or they are not aware of. do you get the sense that they are playing catch-up or is it normal to be in the dark about a grand jury probe of this scale? >> it is amazing to me boris that donald trump's team did not know that he was going to be a target of this investigation. i think the rest of us know it. they are in their own little bubble. perhaps because boris epstein is the gatekeeper. he's the in-house can save you larry, who is ever tried a case and he keeps telling donald trump good news.

news that he wants to hear. that's not so good when you get blindsided by something that everyone else was expecting. so ããthis is a real problem that the trump legal circle faces 's why they are bringing on new lawyers. eeto grieve group because this is very serious. i still think boris that the documents matter is the strongest case because there is a direct type betweetrump and the alleged criminality there. the january 6 case is probably the most important because it involves the attempted overthrow of our government. the attempted and to our democracy and it's something that the public really knows about because they were watching it all unfold on live tv. >> anchor: i want to zoom in with you dave. on one of the potential charges that are in ããthat are reportedly in the target letter. the deprivation of civil rights. what do you make of that angle? >> 18 usc 241. it was a surprise to a lot of us because it was not mentioned in the january 6 committee report. it has had a lot of talk about it.

it's a conspiracy between two or more people to deprive people of their constitutional rights. the privilege and immunities on the constitutional moment. one of them is the right to vote through the 14th amendment and equal protection clause. you are allowed to have your votes counted and when trump goes ahead and tries to prevent the votes from being counted or certification of the boat and goes into georgia and tries to add nouveau and dilute votes by adding 11,000 or so votes ãã that could violate that statute and that statute gets you up to 10 years in prison. so you've got that, you've got the other two statutes, the obstruction of official proceeding that can get you up to 10 years in prison and conspiracy to defraud the united states. which should get you up to five years in prison. you could see why trump is really worried right now. >> dave ããquickly, is it possible that he's the only target so far in the investigation? we have not heard about any potential targets receiving target letters.

people like rudy giuliani or others in trump's circle. after the 2020 election that were helping him in this process. >> this could mean a lot of things boris. it could mean that the others are just lying. rudy giuliani is not known for his for a city. it could mean that the others cut a deal and that's why they are not targets. it could mean that they have not received letters yet that their targets ããperhaps are just focusing on trump first because there are gonna be additional issues when you start crossbreeding trump. you will not have when you crossfeed others public planes of executive privilege or presidential immunity. there are a lot of reasons why others may say they have not received those letters yet. one thing we know for sure is that trump is a target and will be indicted. >> we will have to wait and see wait and see on, mo that but there are stron d. on, mo that but there are stron it h has not happened chinyet.

>> welcome back to cnn news central part we reported extensively on the difficult and dangerous contract that migrants face when they try to cross the u.s. mexico border. putting recent months ããtexas governor, greg abbott has made it much more difficult and even dangerous. like the point a floating border barrier and netting on the rio grande river. texas is also installing a razor wire fence. the state's department of public safety recently released some disturbing images showing injuries to migrants caused by the razor wire. now cnn is learning that the biden administration is increasingly concerned about governor abbott's measures. one homeland security official says quote that it's making our jobs harder.

cnn's [indiscernible] is in el paso texas near the border. first of all, what using where you are? >> reporter: boris, let me show you around. because this is a portion of the river that is very popular because the water is very shallow. you could see the state of texas has several border barriers. two rows of concertina wire and of course, the floating buoys. regarding the allegations that you are talking about, i just talked to two migrant women. they were both pregnant. and they say that they crossed in the last week. and when they approached texas national guard and they say they asked for water, both women told me that they were denied water. one woman in particular said that she asked a second time and that the soldier showed her handcuffs. both women say that they were asked to walk along this concertina wire on and on and on until they were finally, able to turn themselves into immigration authorities.

>> you are in the middle the rio grande. >> jesse fuentes grew up riding the waters in rio grande el paso texas. >> river i love. >> in 2015, he turned his passion into a business launching epis canoe and kayak. >> what was businesslike? >> was beautiful. [laughter] >> fuentes also organized races on the river.but not anymore. >> we are securing the border at the border. >> governor greg abbott has deployed concertina wire, shipping containers, and most recently, 1000 feet of floating border barrier and netting on the river. the buoys are four feet in diameter and anchored to the bottom of the waterway. >> a strategy that no state has ever before deployed. to stop people from entering texas illegally paid. >> the state of texas did not exactly follow the law when it started installing the buoy on the rio grande. according to the u.s. state

department, the series of treaties between the u.s. and mexico govern the use of the water on the rio grande and texas not only did not consult with the u.s. federal government before installing the buoys, it did obtain a permit. >> it used to be a beautiful pristine island. >> fuentes points to an island on the river that he says texas also destroyed. there is what the island look like on google earth. here's what it looks like now. the island is gone.the vegetation is dead ããthe road and concertina wire is taking its place. it made me want to cry. it was sad. >> fuentes filed a lawsuit claiming the buoys will prevent him from making a living. >> [indiscernible] >> mexico's top diplomat complained to washington saying that the buoys violated the two trees between the countries and one that prohibits construction or obstruct the flow of the river. >> [indiscernible] >> mexico is also concerned that the buoys may be on their territory. >> this is our property. >> [indiscernible]

they took complained about texas. but for installing concertina wire on their land and for refusing to remove it. >> has dps taken over control of private property? >> yes. are we supportive a bit? no we are not. >> the most alarming part of it all is when they say they witnessed migrants needing help and texas national guard members standing there. >> i asked aren't you all going to help? and they just sat there and they said we can't. we can't get onto your property. they told us not to get on the property. they told us not even to give them water. and i said fine. and that i just turned around and we just kept helping people out.>> texas national guard denies the allegations. the organized account comes as texas dps released emails showing top brass acknowledging an increase in migrant injuries from concertina wire. in a texas state trooper: the whistle disappears about a 19-year-old stuck on the wire while having a miscarriage. a four-year-old passed out due to exhaustion and developing order to push migrants into the

river and deny them water. allegations the agency denies. >> [indiscernible] >> maverick county sheriff, tom sherbet says he's never seen troopers ministry migrants. his word the buoys could mean more migrant deaths. >> i hope among. but i think we're gonna have some people drowning in the area. >> i want to be that which for the river because river cannot speak for itself. >> are you afraid of going against the state of texas? >> my friend? no. is my business suffering?is my heart suffering? yes. >> the u.s. department of justice is assessing all these allegations. they say that they are working with other federal agencies ãã but boris, it's unclear if legal action will be taken. of floors from el paso texas. thank you very much. breonna? >> backlasash in florida over t newly approved statandards for >> backlasash in florida over t newly approved statandards for how black schools.s. we will have details just ahead.

[music] >> classroom controversy is erupting in florida over how students will learn about black history. the state board of education has just approved standards for public schools.one rule that teachers must now follow requires middle school students to learn how slaves develop skills, which in some instances

ããcould be applied for their personal benefit. and at the high school level ã ãif students learn about race massacres like the 1920 rampage and echo in florida ãã teachers mux include acts of violence perpetrated against and by african-americans. joining me to discuss is andrew spahr. president of the florida education association. andrew ããto be clear, when it comes to that mascara ããthat was against african-americans trying to prevent them from voting. just to be clear with folks that may not be familiar with that history. what is your reaction to these standards? >> we are very concerned about the standards here in florida. you know what? teachers want to do is they want to teach kids an accurate and complete and honest history both the good and the bad. what we see happening here in florida is the governor is putting his political agenda ahead of the education of our children. and he's picking and choosing what he believes should be part

of the history of what is taught in our schools. you mentioned two examples from middle and high school. even from elementary school ãã we talked about kids explaining and defining what they recognize and identify key figures in african-american history. not talk about their contributions. and how those contributions may have affected their lives and the lives of their families. >> what other standards ããare the other ones besides the ones that you mentioned besides the ones that i outlined their in the introduction to you that are concerning? >> reporter: absolutely. again, we are talking about what's missing from these standards. florida's articles of succession when there was the civil war are not even included in these standards in talking about the impact that has on our students. or they had on black people and particularly, slaves. we also see will talk about the supreme court ruling of brown versus the board of education. again, the key element is missing, which is when the

florida legislature voted to say this is the supreme court ruling was void in the state of florida. those are key elements that we need to know because we learn from our history. and when we leave that out of the teaching to our students ã ãis problematic. keep in mind that teachers in florida are operating under a law passed last year, which is the stop woke act, where they are threatened with their jobs and teaching certificate if they teach something that the governor decides is part of woke in america or woke in florida or part of stuff that he does not want taught in our schools. so because of that ããteachers are very hesitant as to how they navigate standards when things like key issues are missing.>> so andrew, your organization represents 150,000 teachers and also education professionals. what are you hearing from them now with the standards past? >> what we've been hearing for a while now is because lester and again ããflorida changed past the stop woke act. we had a civic training that we

have teachers. and we were hearing from them about how it seemed like they were trying to rewrite the history and leave things out. talking about how the founding fathers and our country spot against slavery. but not talk about how the own slaves. the teachers are very concerned with what's happening and how we are narrowing the curriculum. there also very concerned that many of our students are no longer seeing themselves in their learning. and that is really really important for kids to learn ãã it's one of those foundational skills that one of those foundational needs that kids have which is to see themselves in their learning and how they are learning connects to them. so when you say don't teach current events ããwhen you say limit what kids can see and learn ããthat's a real problem for educators. >> anchor: can you talk a little bit more about that? what are the long-term effects that you are concerned about with children learning history the way that it's outlined?

in these standards? >> again ããyou know, there's the old adage that if we don't learn from history ãas we are destined to repeat it. so if you are selecting what you can and can't learn in our schools as the governor is doing right now or for his own political ambitions ããthen kids are missing out on the education that they deserve and need. if they do not learn about how slavery really came about in this country and how there were attempts to continue slavery even after the emancipation proclamation ããif they did not learn about how there was separate and unequal in our schools ããwhich the brown versus the board of education reversed and changed and how states like florida and other states fought against desegregation ããthen we are destined to repeat that. and what's concerning is that we are seeing like we are going back to 1950 rather than going ahead to 25 in the great prosperity ahead of us. >> and respond to florida education association. thank you for being on the show today could we appreciate it. >> thanks for having me.

>> the nationwide shortage of cancer drugs is impacting patients. we know that. causing delays in treatment and forcing some people to switch medication. but it's also having detrimental impact on cancer research too. which means that it's going to hurt patients in the future as well.we have seen an health reporter, jaclyn howard joining us with more on this. jacqueline, tell us what's going on and how the shortage

of chemotherapy drugs is impacting cancer research. >> what's happening breonna ãã we know that current drugs like some of the chemotherapies that are now in shortage are needed in cancer research for three reasons. sometimes scientists compare how new and novel treatments that they are developing compare with current medications and sometimes scientists looking to help concurrent medications can be used in conjunction with new developing treatments. and then number three, scientists often look at how current medications could be used and applied for other types of cancer that they are not already used to treat. and that's how we are now seeing the current drug shortage causing some clinical trials to shut down. some clinical trials that we are expected to start this summer have been put on hold because they are not able to get the medications that they need. and the national cancer

institute told of at least 174 of its own trials may be affected by this current shortage. so ããit's concerning to see now not only our patients impacted, but research is impacted as well breonna. >> how much of a shortage are we talking about right now? >> we are talking about according to the american society of health systems, at least 25 cancer medications are now in shortage. that includes important chemotherapies like cisplatin and carboplatin. as you've seen on the screen here ãthere's among some of the nation's most major cancer centers ãã93 percent reported back in may that they had a shortage of carboplatin. 70 percent have a shortage of cisplatin and this shortage is not just due to increased demand, but manufacturing issues sometimes delays in having facilities inspected. supply chain issues ããall these factors are playing a role in this ongoing concern drug shortage breonna. >> you know, this is terrible. terrible stuff.

just in to cnn, we're getting new details about that search warrant issued in henderson, nevada tied to the murder of rap icon, tupac shakur. according to the warrant, writers, cell phones, computers were among the items of interest

to police. talk to us about where the search warrant was issued. >> reporter: we have obtained the search warrant. it was actually placed at the home of a woman married to duane keith davis, he is a famous former gang member who was friends with diddy, with eze, and he is somebody who wrote a book about his time growing up in these circles. and he has self-pro claimed for years that he saw tupac get shot and knew details of this. we don't know if he lived in the home with his wife. we don't know the affiliation there. here are some things we know the police took from the home. we know they took five computers. we know they took an iphone, usb hard drives. tablets. obviously his book. a copy of vibe magazine that featured tupac on the cover. and this is a very interesting

development. you know, he ran in those circles, duane, back in the 90s. tu pac famously being murdered in 1996 after he left a hotel, the mgm grand following a fight he had gone to see, a boxing fight, and he was in the car with sugar night, a famous executive, when a cadillac pulled up and began shooting, firing 12 shots that hit tu pac and he later died from the injuries in the hospital later. but this is a development here and many people are wondering if this could potentially lead to an arrest. but this is all we know right now, but this is what they took from the home and whose home it was. we'll let you know as the story develops. >> it's an incredible story because the details from the person who wrote the book, they've been out in the public

for some time. any indication where the warrant was issued now? >> no. so nothing reportable at this time as to why the search warrant was executed this week. but you are exactly right. duane keith davis is someone who has been very vocal about the fact that he knew who murdered tupac, that he had details. that he witnessed the shooting take place. and he's been very vocal able it, writing a book about it, like you said, so why all these years, decades later are the search warrants being executed and things taken out of his wife's homes, five computers, tablets, iphone so hopefully we gel met more information soon as to what exactly is on those hard drives, computers, tablets whatnot. >> potentially one step closer to finding justice in a case many thought would never be solved. thank you.
