him back, so good to see him back. also dreams coming true for a lot of young men working their lives, right, for that moment seeing there travon walker, the top pick in the nfl draft last night and he is starting his first day as a pro athlete with us? a "gma" exclusive. we begin with the news on the war in ukraine. overnight, willy joseph cancel was killed with ukrainian troops and president biden has made a big request from congress for $33 billion in aid. our senior foreign correspondent ian pannell is on the scene i kyiv. good morning, ian. >> reporter: yeah, good morning, george. we're actually on the scene of one of those five missiles believed to have struck kyiv around 7:00, 8:00 p.m. in the evening. now, the russians say what they were targeting was a factory that was making rockets. now, there is a large factory complex over here which we can't show you, the windows have been blown out. there is some damage there. but this is clearly a residential apartment. we have been inside and met some of the people living there, and they described the moments that the rocket struck. an american fighting alongside ukrainian troops is amongst the casualties of the war. willy joseph cancel's wife

confirming his death to abc news saying, my husband went there wanting to help people. he'd always felt that that was his main mission in life. overnight, russia attacking kyiv launching missiles into the ukrainian capital. these videos circulating online show the moment the missiles slammed into buildings. this is the random danger all ukrainians must live with daily. this video was given to abc by a resident whose apartment block was struck. the attack happening as the u.n. secretary-general was in the capital meeting president zelenskyy to try to move the zelenskyy saying the russian attack shows what little regard moscow has for the united nations. adding that the attack requires an appropriate powerful response. the strike comes as president biden looks to target those closest to putin. asking congress to give him the authority to use the proceeds from seized assets of russian oligarchs for ukraine. biden also calling on

legislators to authorize an additional $33 billion in military aid for ukraine over the next five months. >> the cost of this fight is not cheap, but caving to aggression will be more costly. if we allow it to happen. >> reporter: as russian forces push to take the donbas, a senior u.s. defense official saying russia's advance in the region has been slow and incremental. in mariupol, ukrainian fighters and civilians are trapped inside the city's azovstal steel plant surrounded by russian forces desperate to escape. a far-right paramilitary group, now part of the ukrainian national guard, releasing this video appearing to show the aftermath of an attack on a hospital inside the plant. abc news has been unable to verify the video's authenticity. back in the capital region, we went with a mine removal team gathering unexploded ordnance from liberated villages, a job as critical as dangerous. more than 80,000 explosive

devices have been found across ukraine since the war began. you can see here there are grenades. there are shells. these are anti-tank mines. the team gathers the munitions in one place. a countdown commences. and then this, just some of the tens of thousands of unexploded bombs and rockets now littering ukraine. while president zelenskyy says an operation is under way to try to reach those civilians and soldiers who have been stranded at that steel plant inside mariupol, but no news yet whether or not it's going to be successful. we know they've tried to do that before and it's failed because the russians failed to honor the cease-fire. meanwhile, nato joining many other analysts in their assessment that this conflict might not just last months but could even go to years, george. >> ian pannell, thanks. let's bring in our senior white house analyst mary bruce, our military analyst, retired colonel steve ganyard, and the president's request to congress, $33 billion in aid reaching back to world war ii laws.

>> reporter: george, look, the president himself openly admits this is a lot of money but he says this is what it is going to take to keep up the fight to save ukraine. those $33 billion over the next five months. it includes over $20 billion in new government military assistance, $8.5 billion in economic assistance, just to help the government keep up basic services, and $3 billion in humanitarian aid. the president says this is needed right now, that the previous funds have run dry. but it could take the congress a couple of weeks to actually get this done. the good news for this white house is that right now both sides of the aisle up on capitol hill seem to back this and will be in support of this funding. now, in the meantime, though, of course, the kremlin continues to accuse the u.s. and nato of fighting a proxy war with russia. they are promising a, quote, lightning-fast response to any country that intervenes in ukraine. i did ask the president yesterday if this ratcheted up rhetoric concerns him and, george, he told me the u.s. is prepared for whatever russia may do. >> let's bring that to steve ganyard, our military analyst. you heard these accusations from russia of a proxy war.

does this reinforce those accusations? >> yeah, george, i think russia actually has a point on the proxy war. we've seen this week another $33 billion committed. the secretary of defense said we want to weaken russia. we have the nsc saying that we intend to make this a strategic defeat and so this is enough of an argument for putin to go back to the russian people and say, see, i told you it's us against the west. that fans the fires of self-righteous indignation and it buys putin much more of domestic political support for the war. >> we have also seen in recent days, steve, ukrainians striking targets in russia. >> yeah, the ukrainians certainly have the right to hit behind russian lines to prevent the russians from conducting the war in ukraine. but by that same logic, george, russia again has said that they have the right to attack nato countries and nato resupplies coming into ukraine and, remember, if that happens, if russia attacks a nato member, it will invoke an article 5 and this becomes a much more

dangerous, very different kind of war that could involve direct confrontation between the u.s. and russia. >> finally, mary, we heard ian pannell say this could go on for years. should we expect more requests from president biden? >> reporter: i think it is safe to say that you are going to see more requests from the president. there have been a lot of questions about whether they can keep up this pace of funding given how many billions of dollars the u.s. has already spent just over the last few months but the president says that this is money that has to be spent in order to save ukraine, that this is necessary and so far we do see washington backing these requests, but no question -- no doubt, george, this is a lot of money being spent in not a lot of time. >> mary bruce and steve ganyard, thanks very much. cecilia. to the latest on trevor reed back home after nearly three years in russian prisons finally freed after being exchanged for a russian serving time here in the u.s. stephanie ramos has more on reed's first hours back here on u.s. soil and those other americans, of course, still being held there in russia. good morning, stephanie. >> reporter: cecilia, good morning. this release ends a nearly

three-year ordeal for trevor reed who was sentenced to nine years in a russian prison back in july of 2020. as you can imagine, his family is overjoyed to have him back. this morning, former marine trevor reed is recovering at a military hospital at joint base san antonio in texas. as we learn new details about his condition, the reed family spokesman saying he is receiving care from a world-class department of defense team. reed also being offered intensive psychological counseling and support after spending nearly three years in prison in russia on charges he assaulted a police officer, an accusation he and the u.s. government insisted were false. reed freed in a top secret prisoner swap seen in this video broadcast on russian state tv. congressman august pfluger there to greet trevor on the tarmac in texas, early thursday morning describing what he saw. did he seem excited? did he seem anxious? >> he was obviously very fatigued.

his spirit is incredible. he is a survivor. he is a fighter. and there's obviously health concerns with him and i think that's one of the reasons president biden was convinced that we needed to get him back now. >> reporter: senior biden administration officials say discussions with the russians intensified in recent weeks as reed's health deteriorated with fears he may have contracted tuberculosis. as reed recovers, pressure now growing on president biden to help free the other americans still imprisoned in russia, paul whelan, also a former marine has been in russian custody since 2018. he denies charges that he was a spy. in a statement, whelan asking, why was i left behind? why hasn't more been done to secure my release? >> i would say that we will continue to do everything possible to bring paul whelan home. the president is focused on that. >> reporter: wnba star brittney griner also in russian custody since february after she was

accused of going through an airport near moscow with hashish oil. as for reed, he has a long road to recovery. he will receive medical care in san antonio at a military hospital that helps service members and civilians acclimate to life after being imprisoned overseas. cecilia. >> long road ahead. we are thinking of him. stephanie, thank you so much. coming up, as we said george will speak exclusively to trevor reed's family. we turn to weather. severe storms moving into the plains. ginger joins us now with that and, ginger, they're on the lookout for possible tornadoes and huge hail. >> yes, in populated places like oklahoma city or wichita. look at what the skies were doing, elect rified over omaha. last night you did have rotation trying, but today all of the pieces come together. all of the ingredients for severe storms including the

supercells which create those tornadoes. this is the area that will look for it along the dry line which is a big instigator out in the plains from southern nebraska right through kansas city, wichita, tulsa, and even wichita falls down into texas, damaging wind is possible, and that's not it. tomorrow, on your weekend, chicago gets into the damaging wind threat all the way through western indiana and, george, into st. louis. >> okay, ginger, thanks very much. now to the u.s. economy. it slowed in the first three months of the year sparking fears of a recession and deirdre bolton has the latest. good morning, deirdre. >> reporter: good morning, george. this morning, fears of recession are growing showing up in the stock market on this last trading day of the month. the s&p 500 down more than 5% in april so far. so the average american 401(k) retirement account losing around $6,000 this month alone. a new report on the u.s. economy showing the economy shrinking for the first time since the early days of the pandemic. inflation, supply chain issues, the ongoing war in ukraine all hurting the economy. so the nation's output of goods and services, gdp fell 1.4%. the good news, though, consumer

spending, business investment, they remain high and average americans have saved a record amount of money in the past two years. george. >> deirdre bolton, thanks very much. cecilia. now to oklahoma, taking new steps to make abortion almost impossible for women just weeks after the governor there signed the most restrictive abortion law in the country. the state legislature passing another bill based on that controversial texas law. congressional correspondent rachel scott joins us now with more on this. good morning, rachel. >> reporter: hey, cecilia, good morning. i can tell you i was just on the ground in oklahoma. republican lawmakers there told me they want to outlaw abortion entirely and they're willing to pass any measure that gets them closer to doing just that. so, overnight, this new bill cleared the state legislature and it bans abortion as early as six weeks, that's before many women even know they are pregnant. it's modeled after that strict abortion law in texas empowering private citizens to sue anyone

who performs an unlawful abortion or helps a woman get one. that person could then collect a reward of at least $10,000 if successful. now, governor kevin stitt is expected to sign this bill into law in just a matter of days. he's already signed one that makes performing abortion illegal but that does not go into effect until august. and that's a key difference here because once the governor signs this bill, it will go into effect immediately. abortion providers say they do plan to challenge this but, unless a federal judge puts this law on hold, abortions in the state of oklahoma will all but stop, and both sides of this issue are anticipating that supreme court decision expected in early june that will decide the future of roe versus wade, guys. >> i know you'll be following this one for us. thanks so much. turn to the nfl draft. a lot of excitement as dreams are coming true for a lot of young men. wasn't a consensus who the top pick would be, but it ended up being travon walker. there's the moment he got the news. he's going to the jacksonville

jaguars. our kaylee hartung live in vegas with all the highlights. kaylee, good morning to you. >> reporter: hey, good morning, t.j. i can confirm the party has not stopped in vegas, but when does it ever? we saw the hugs, the tears, the culmination of dreams realized on this stage last night. they say in football defense wins championships, well, defensive players won big on night onpick in the 2022 nfl draft, the jacksonville jaguars select travon walker. >> a lot of people were caught by surprise but this sucker is made of everything you want. heart, strength. >> aidan hutchinson, defensive end, michigan. >> reporter: born and raised in michigan and celebrating with his parents, aidan hutchinson, the number two pick to the lions but the first to bear hug commissioner roger goodell on stage. how proud are you guys? >> this is awesome. >> beyond. beyond. someone threw me down the rabbit hole about six months ago and i don't know what's going on. >> reporter: five defensive players topping the draft board. >> you promised me dance moves

and you delivered. >> i told you, listen, one thing about me and i want all the new yorkers to know, i do not fold under pressure so when fourth quarter comes, stay in those seats. >> reporter: with hundreds of thousands of fans flooding the vegas strip, players doing their best to outshine the brightest gh >> go, dogs. >> that's a couple of pounds of diamonds. >> it's been a long time i've been dreaming about this moment. >> reporter: players working so hard for this moment. we saw you taking some deep breaths as you walked from the green room to that stage. what was going through your mind? >> a lot. i mean it's everything i've worked for. >> reporter: family remaining the focus for so many. what difference do you want to make in the lives of the people who are most important to you? >> man, i can't wait. you know, my mom, to see her dress, see her smiling so hard, to take care of her and get her anything she wants was always my main goal. >> you got to love that. only one quarterback came off the board in the first round. that hasn't happened since 2013. kenny pickett got the call at 20 so expect a lot more action at

we are going to ask dr. ashton all about this coming up. right now, our exclusive interview with the family of trevor reed. their first since the reunion with their son after trevor's dramatic release from a russian prison and his parents and his sister taylor join us now. i can't imagine how happy you are. tell us how the reunion went. >> it was great. yesterday we got to see him for a couple of hours, first time we got to hug him. it was heaven. awesome. >> and, joey, tell us about how this all came together. when did you first hear after all of your efforts for so many years, when did you first hear that your son might be coming home? >> personnel from the state department a few days before had said that, you know, something might be happening. they couldn't give us any details. and then we had a couple of other sources and then we got our call early in the morning that said he's on the plane.

actually we got a call from the plane from roger carsten, the presidential envoy on hostage affairs, and he said, joey, i have somebody here that wants to talk to you and so we got to talk to trevor for a minute. he sounded kind of a little in shock at that point. but then he called us back later and was perking up some so anyway that's kind of how the middle of the night type of thing so -- >> taylor, tell us what it was like to finally see your brother. >> outstanding. it's excellent and considering all he's been through and the recovery that's ahead of him his spirits are bright. he's telling stories. he's flirting with the nurse staff. he's -- it's great. it's great to see him. >> you say he's flirting with the nurse staff. paula, what does his girlfriend lina think about that? >> well, i don't think she knew that until just now. [ laughter ] >> it's all friendly flirting, though. >> he's just happy to be around other people again.

>> i think he's just happy -- i think he's just happy to see females. >> well, paula, you kind of answered part of my next question. we had heard -- we know you were concerned and said trevor did not look well when you first saw the pictures. we heard reports he might have contracted tuberculosis while imprisoned overseas. what can you tell us about his medical condition right now? >> we don't really have a whole lot of answers yet, still pretty early. he's getting testing done. he is at a top notch medical facility and he's getting great care so we're excited about that but we won't really know more for a few days. >> and, joey, you worked so hard as i said to bring trevor home. you headed to moscow for a year to try and free him pressing your case with president biden, even demonstrating in front of the white house. what do you think was the final tipping point in making this happen? >> there were a few things i think towards the end, but ultimately it was president

biden. we said all along if we could just speak to the man we think he would make this happen and that's exactly what happened. he did everything we had said he would do and it's amazing and we can't thank him enough and we believe that he may have saved trevor's life. >> and, paula, of course, there are still americans being held in russia. paul whelan, brittney griner. what's your message to their families? >> well, our hearts go out to them and we can only imagine how disappointed they are that their loved ones didn't get to come home and just also so you know yesterday when we spoke with trevor that was the very first thing he said to us was he said he didn't feel well and we said, well, you mean like physically, he said, no, mom, i feel terrible that paul is still there and i'm here. and he said, when i get better i'm going to start advocating for them to bring paul home right away so that's how we feel. we're going to advocate for everyone to come home. >> and we all are doing that as well and, joey, i heard you also had a message for our abc moscow colleague patrick revell. >> oh, yes. >> i've been in constant contact with him.

patrick is -- >> is our hero. >> "the new york times" broke the story. i got a "new york times" reporter, yvonne, came to the first pretrial hearing and then patrick and a russian -- another russian reporter came. i don't want to give her name out because i don't want to get anyone in trouble in russia right now and reuters, but patrick's been with us all along, and he's just incredible. he's a credit to abc, let me just say that. >> he certainly is. finally, paula, what's next for trevor? >> he's got a long road ahead of him to, you know, recuperate, recover, get back into the swing of things but like i said his spirits are good so we think he's going to be fine. just going to take a little while and we're letting him take his time. >> that makes a lot of sense. thank you for joining us. we hope you continue to enjoy the reunion. cecilia? >> hopeful story. up next, everybody, the latest in the "rust" on-set

>> you're not arrested. >> reporter: this morning, the armorer from the set of "rust" hitting back at the santa fe sheriff's office for comments he made leading to what she calls an erroneous implication. demanded sheriff mendoza retract or amend his recent statements following the investigation into the shooting on the set of "rust," which they believe have led to conclude that hannah may have brought live rounds or fired live rounds on a previous movie set, and also on the set of "rust." >> i think there were several text messages and emails in reference to the use of possible live rounds on a different movie set. that's concerning because that was just a few months before the production of "rust" went into effect and these are some of the same people, some of the same employees and people that played a role in the "rust" production, so that's concerning. >> reporter: her attorney writing, this was recklessly false and there is no evidence to support this misstatement. adding that these comments revealed a lack of attention to the evidence within his possession. overnight, the attorney to the

film's propmaster sarah zachry supporting hannah gutierrez reed. >> i think he did what he felt he was supposed to do as her attorney and i saw nothing inappropriate with it and i think he probably did the right thing. >> reporter: the sheriff facing heat from multiple sides. halyna hutchins' family also slamming the department for releasing a trove of evidence including officers' body cam video showing the final moments of the cinematographer fighting for her life saying in a letter, they had less than a business day to review crucial video evidence before it was released to the public writing that the office trampled on the constitutional rights of hutchins and failed to give the family dignity and privacy citing the new mexico constitution's right to request that discretion be exercised and sensitive material be redacted. legal experts say the sheer volume of information released was unprecedented. it also included personal details for some cast and crew members like their social security numbers and cell phone numbers. when the sheriff made this

that stage? why was it important for you to be home? >> i just have to say mainly i'm a family guy. i don't like fake love so i rather be around the people who really care for me, who's really been there for me my whole life through the ups and downs, so i can say that's probably majority of the part why i stayed with my family and didn't go to las vegas. >> what do you think? do you think you have something -- it became in recent weeks, yeah, that you were going to be the guy but earlier you weren't the consensus. you had a good combine but a lot of people think you're being drafted for your potential and upside. are you going into jacksonville now with something to prove because of that? >> i mean, of course, i'm going in with something to prove, but i'm not going to make it any harder than it's supposed to be. just go out and play football. something i've been doing my whole life and don't make it harder than it's supposed to be. >> you won a national championship this year with the georgia bulldogs. you're now the number one

>> reporter: and tara says the impact even greater for some. >> women in senior roles, women who have children under 10, single mothers obviously have been really impacted by the pandemic and black women have been especially impacted by the pandemic. >> reporter: there are 1.1 million fewer women in jobs since february 2020. but experts say there is hope. 431,000 jobs were added in march of 2022. women making up 62.9% of them. and with more companies now recruiting women and changing work culture, experts tell us women may have more leverage to negotiate and find a balance. >> this is a wonderful moment for women to redefine the roles. >> reporter: she says despite the challenges of the past two years there have been silver linings too. >> i am in much greater alignment with my values and what i actually want to be doing in my career as opposed to just mindlessly climbing a career ladder.

>> i think a lot of people can relate to her. raena says she feels lucky to have kept her job even if she had to take a step back. she's now been promoted again but she says this time it's on her own terms, cecilia. >> you mentioned silver linings. we could look at moving from a recession to women to a recovery. >> calling it the she-covery. the pandemic has been particularly challenging for women as we mentioned, but it's also shined a light on how important we are in the workplace. many companies are increasing teir efforts to hire and retain women, which gives us the opportunity to be clear about exactly what we want in our day-to-day job and to have a little more flexibility in our careers. >> she-covery. >> she-covery. >> thanks. a couple more shes. a new biography about anna wintour. giving us a glimpse behind the curtain. there she is. our deborah roberts, she sat down with the book's author and joins us with ore. deb, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning. yeah, she's the most powerful

>> reporter: and soon more than 250 of wintour's colleagues, acquaintances and friends began talking. what fascinates you about her? >> many people myself included know anna very well from meryl streep's depiction of her in "the devil wears prada." the director of the movie told me that when anna wintour gets to work everyone is in a titter. she is a titan in the business world. she advises people in the entertainment world, bradley cooper, when he had a script for "a star is born." ♪ in the shallow ♪ >> but had not yet cast lady gaga. he sent it to anna wintour seeking her feedback. serena williams told me that when she was struggling with tennis at one point in her career, she talked to anna on the phone and the advice that anna gave her enabled her to go on and win wimbledon. >> reporter: but alongside that power has been controversy. despite the diverse figures gracing the glossy covers of "vogue" in recent years and a 2020 internal email with wintour

pledging to employees to do better when it comes to racial inequality at "vogue," many have faulted wintour and the package's parent company, conde nast, for not embracing diversity sooner. >> all you have to do is look at the covers of "vogue" from over the course of her tenure since 1988 to see where diversity ranks for her in terms of a priority and you'll notice there was a turning point around the summer of 2020 and since then "vogue" covers have been notably more diverse. >> what about behind the scenes? >> diversity is always going to be something that people are going to examine. i think when it comes to anna wintour, she and "vogue" have a history of not embracing diversity. >> reporter: criticism aside, anna wintour may very well be known for the splashy met gala event. are there two sides to anna wintour? >> many people says she has a cutting and hilarious sense of humor. she's someone described as a matriarch.

she's someone who wants to be remembered actually not for her magazine work but for her philanthropy. >> so much has been written about anna wintour's tough, terse, critical side but odell dives into that kinder personal detail too. who would guess, for instance, that she, the famously chilly editor has a warm spot for dogs, a wicked sense of humor and actually treasures family moments even happily changing diapers for her grandchildren? so there's a very different side to this woman other than the glamorous queen that we'll see reigning at the met gala next week. t.j., just like there's more to you than that glamorous side. >> yeah. >> designer diapers. >> i was thinking the same thing, george. thank you so much, as always. all right. let's head to ginger. >> glamorous inside and out, t.j., that's how i always think of you. all right, how about we look from wintour to winter. oh, in maine, 5 1/2 inches of snow, you go to burlington, vermont, they're below average whereas they were closer up
