>> reporter: good morning, eva. every day ukrainians are suffering from these awful russian attacks, these atrocities. they're designed to terrorize people, to break their spirit. that's not happening. there's a darkness that's settled over the land. we want to warn our viewers this report will contain images that are dark and disturbing. this morning there's worldwide condemnation on russia's latest horrific attack on civilians. >> it is a war crime. >> reporter: a russian missile slammed into a crowded train station where thousands of people were trying to flee their homes. a hellish scene. bodies scattered on the ground and the remnants of the rocket with the words for the children written in russian. this blood-spattered toy left behind. at least 50 people were killed and at least 100 wounded in the city of kramatorsk in eastern ukraine where russians are set to launch a major offensive.

ukrainian officials say 4,000 people were at or near the station when the missile hit. they were heeding government warnings to leave the area in advance of the russian assault. "the new york times" reports an effort to evacuate that area by bus is under way. here's a scene at the station a day before. bustling with women and children. after the strike a car engulfed in flames. a body on the ground. a horrible aftermath. this aid worker was near the station when the missile hit. >> the scene was catastrophic. the damage was spread out from the platform all the way to the outside of the station. there were many casualties we could see. dozens of casualties. >> reporter: across ukraine the evidence of russian atrocities is mounting. a few hours away in kharkiv homes in shambles, burned cars, windows blown out. the ukrainian military says russian forces bombarded the city. this woman described the attack. she heard a loud noise, knocking her to the ground.

[speaking foreign language] >> reporter: president zelenskyy on instagram declared that accountability for these crimes inevitable. zelenskyy is calling for war crimes trials. those are probably a long way away. what's coming next is the battle shaping up in the east of the country. that's why so many people were at the train station. the government told people get out of there.

the russians told people get out of there. the russians have appointed a new general, one who led russian forces in syria and their brutal efforts there to manage this next attack. >> terry moran with those difficult images for us. here at home, president biden celebrating the historic confirmation of ketanji brown jackson to the u.s. supreme court. abc's white house correspondent maryalice parks is in washington with more. maryalice, good morning. >> reporter: whit, good morning. the president marking a campaign promise kept and cementing a key part of his legacy. there was a moment at the start the vice president was talking about the history being made with judge ketanji brown jackson, now the first black woman confirmed to the highest court. president biden joyfully interjecting about time. that's been his message, that he thought it was about time the supreme court looked more like america. flanked by two black women he helped promote, president biden all smiles friday, celebrating

stephen breyer retires. janai? >> so much history to celebrate. maryalice, thank you. president biden has tested negative for covid-19. that's despite having contact with several lawmakers and officials who tested positive for the virus. abc's phil lipof joins us with the latest on the rising cases spreading through the nation's capital. good morning, phil. >> good morning, guys. we know at least 19 lawmakers tested positive this past week. a majority of them had some form of contact with either president biden or vice president harris either at white house events or on capitol hill. testing positive among others house speaker nancy pelosi, senator susan collins. president biden kissed nancy pelosi on the cheek before her diagnosis, then tested negative friday morning. vice president harris tested negative thursday and then again

precautions coming back. if the number of cases continues to rise, a health department spokesperson said they want, quote, to head off this wave before it gets going. eva? >> thank you, phil lipof for us. joining us now from los angeles is dr. darien sutton. thanks for being here. so many people were already infected over the winter. what's the likelihood of reinfection with this new variant? >> good morning, eva. the information about this is relatively limited. we know it's rare to get a reinfection within three months of a prior infection. we have small nonpeer-reviewed studies that show those previously infected with the original omicron have antibodies that can be protective against the ba.2 variant. as we've seen throughout the pandemic, the response to a natural infection can be variable from person to person

which is why vaccines are important. >> for those who get infected, what treatments are available? how do you get them? >> treatments are available for those who are elderly and high risk. we saw the test to treat program, oral medications are available at local pharmacies and community health centers for those who are high risk, over the age of 65 or have another condition that may make their immune system suppressed. in order to get that, it's simple. search test to treat in your local browser and it can bring you to a website where you type in your zip code and find a local center to be able to have access to a pharmacy or even a health care provider to be able to provide you a prescription. medications should be taken early on, similar to the way we treat with tamiflu. >> we heard phil mention there's an uptick in some parts of the country. what does this mean for the future of the pandemic? is covid going to be this year

round thing or is it going to be more of a seasonal thing? a lot of people are wondering. >> i'm hopeful, eva, it's not a sasonal thing. as we know, this pandemic has thrown us many curve balls. as we move into the summer more people will participate in mitigation efforts naturally as we move outside and have higher levels of ventilation. hopefully we don't see a surge this summer. i'm more concerned about the fall as vaccine protection wanes. it's important to acknowledge we need people to get the booster and those at high risk get the fourth dose to provide the additional level of protection. only time will tell until we get to those numbers. >> that discussion around boosters ongoing. dr. sutton, thank you so much. whit? now to an alarming storm, new developments in the case of two men accused of impersonating homeland security agents and giving gifts to secret service agents, even paying their rent. the accused men in federal court in washington, d.c. abc's alex presha joins us with more on what we're learning.
