very disturbing. >> reporter: every day they are finding more bodies in bucha a suburb of kyiv and the surrounding towns. russia's withdrawal revealed what looked like more like crime scenes ukrainians shot in the head at close range. bodies bearing signs of torture and rape, the some lined up in basements in a village near bucha, the mayor, her husband and the son were discovered in a shallow grave. president zelenskyy toured bucha yesterday describing what he saw as a war crime and genocide. we called on the united states and other allies to sanction russia even harder and send more weapons and aid to ukraine president biden called for a war crimes tribunal to hold president vladimir putin accountable. not everyone has seen it at least not in the same way russia's foreign minister

claimed ukrainians staged bucha, using actors pretending to be dead russian propaganda has risen to dangerous levels, dehumanizing ukrainians, calling the ukraine government and its support anti-russian nazis who need to be eliminated. independent polls suggest putin's popularity is rising on a wave of nationalism. russia's offensive around kyiv has all but collapsed. after taking heavy loss, a senior u.s. defense official says two-thirds of russian forces around kyiv have been repositioned many heading north to belarus for repairs. but russia is intensifying its assault in the east and south of ukraine, launching a new strike on odesa, stepping up attacks on kharkiv, and continuing to choke off mariupol, a city roughly ten times the size of bucha and

where the death toll remains unknown. accounts of russian abuses and possible war crimes in the city are widespread >> that was richard engel reporting from bucha this morning. more on the white house's response to those atrocities in bucha. president biden announcing he is ready to seek even harsher sanctions against russia now he's also calling for a war crimes trial against vladimir putin. nbc's chief white house correspondent kristen welker picks up that part of the story. good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you. president biden has been under real pressure to do more to help ukraine from bipartisan lawmakers and president zelenskyy himself. zelenskyy will address the u.n. security council this morning at a session aimed at reviewing allegations. russians have intentionally targeted civilians president biden vowing more sanctions are coming as his top officials warning this conflict could stretch into months. president biden not mincing words. intensifying his condemnation of russian president vladimir putin calling for him to be tried for war crimes.

>> he is a war criminal. we have to gather all the details so we can have a war crime trial. this guy is brutal and what's happening in bucha is outrageous. >> reporter: but the president stopping short of labelling the atrocities a genocide. >> i think it is a war crime >> reporter: but ukraine's president zelenskyy says russia's actions do amount to genocide, which the u.s. government defines as an act against member os national ethnic racial or religious group with intent to destroy in whole or in part jake sullivan pressed on why the president didn't use the word. >> we have not yet seen a level of systematic deprivation of life of the ukrainian people to rise totally level of genocide but it is something we'll continue to monitor. >> reporter: in the meantime the white house trying to find ways to punish russia diplomatically. though many feel much more is needed the administration asking the u.n. general assembly to reject

russia from the human rights council this week. that body cannot make legally binding decisions but can authorize investigations all with president zelenskyy putting more pressure on the international community addressing the u.n. security council this morning, and president biden warning more sanctions are coming, officials say as soon as this week so far the u.s. has committed more than $2 billion in military aid to ukraine but president zelenskyy has said that aid and western sanctions have not gone far enough many republicans and some democrats are also demanding a harsher response. >> the latest revelations must only strengthen and intensify our resolve to get the ukrainians what they need. >> we need to put armor in the hands of the ukrainians, we need to put fighter jets and other military capability into the hands of the ukrainians. we need to change our aims in this country and the west to the ukrainians winning this war. >> kristen, in your report there, you mention the possibility of even more

sanctions coming from the biden administration what exactly is on the table >> well, craig, here is what we know so far. we know the u.s. is coordinating this next round of sanctions with its allies and partners and national security advisor jake sullivan said on monday the sanctions would be aimed at targeting elements of the russian economy that are fueling the war. he specifically said the penalties will hit the industrial base hard sullivan acknowledged the sanctions won't work overnight and they haven't but he also said the impact would have impact over time. worth noting putin so far, craig, has just been undeterred by western sanctions the u.s. is also planning to send additional military equipment to ukraine and some lawmakers overnight expressed concerns of military aid u.s. sent so far is not getting to ukraine quickly enough so expect more pressure on that point as well, craig. >> chief white house correspondent kristen welker there at the white house thank you. let's move to another major story this morning talking about severe weather millions across the already

storm weary south bracing for even more heavy rain, damaging winds and possible tornados. severe storms left behind damage as they swept through parts of texas overnight. flipped over an 18-wheeler knocked down trees and flooded streets. al is here with a look where this is headed next. >> it is moving east and it is relentless unfortunately we already have tornado watches still now for much of mississippi. weave -- we've also got them through louisiana. and severe thunderstorm warnings out ahead as we make our way into alabama so we're watching this make its way east 22 million people today at risk. the threat for tornados in this area here just to the north of mobile albany, into savannah, the risk for ef-2 tornados, through southern alabama into georgia. tomorrow afternoon into tomorrow

night that expands birmingham, damaging hail, winds, tornados likely and then thursday the system makes its way off the coast. but it is still going to be bringing the possibility of some tornados today the storm races across the southeast. the risk from louisiana into the carolinas. then a second system tomorrow means multiple rounds of storms from the panhandle of florida all the way up into the northeast with low pressure developing down through the gulf, two inches of rain per hour possible, up to five inches. that could lead to flooding down through the panhandle in the southeast and as we make our way into the northeast, heavier rain too. especially upstate new york could see 1 to 3 inches of rain. we're going to continue to track this, guys it's an ongoing situation right on into the weekend. >> thank you, al meanwhile the nomination of judge ketanji brown jackson to the supreme court cleared another hurdle overnight three republicans joining all 50 democratic senators to advance

the nomination and set up a final vote later this week nbc's senior capitol hill correspondent garrett haake joins us first of all, how big of a surprise were these crossover votes and what does it mean for rest of the confirmation battle? >> good morning. senator murkowski of alaska had voted for judge jackson's confirmation to her current role and she's voted for a majority of president biden's judicial nominees but mitt romney actually opposed jackson's seating on the lower court and generally prefers must have much more conservative judges but his vote was much or a surprise but he called her qualified and a person of honor. said even if he doesn't always agree with her, she belongs on the court. democrats now have a three-vote cushion to work with here which makes jackson's confirmation all be a sure thing this week. >> so it is all but a done deal now. what kind of political impact

do both parties hope this will have going forward >> democrats hope this will put some wind in their political sails here that they can capture some momentum with a lot of the president's legislative agenda on ice or slowed down, lot of the country distracted by things like inflation or the war in ukraine. hoping that seating the first african american woman on the supreme court can put wind in their sails heading into november but republicans say november is a long way off and they are hoping that the country simply moves on by the time that votes are actually cast for the midterms and that a judge who doesn't change the conservative liberal balance of power on the court won't sway too many votes back towards democrats. >> senior capitol hill correspondent. garrett haake. 13 past the hour we're going switch gears tom llamas, what a finish? >> can you say comeback? amazing. after a thrilling few weeks that began with 68 schools, kansas is the last team standing the jayhawks crowned as college basketball's newest champions

thanks to a record-setting comeback against north carolina. nbc's morgan chesky was at the game in new orleans and joins us from the super dome. morgan, what a game. >> no doubt some bourbon street hangovers going to be nursed today but it is going to sting . it is official. they are national champions after pulling off a historic come-from-behind victory over the unc tar heels that now gives their school their fourth national title. >> reporter: in a prize fight between two iconic programs, it was the one-two punch paving the way to ncaa history. >> it's off. the game is over, and kansas comp >> reporter: the jayhawks topping the tar heels 72-69 in an all-out thriller.

cheered on by 75,000 fans inside a packed new orleans superdome. but a game that went down to the wire didn't start that way. an early lead by kansas quick disappeared when the eight-seeded tar heels took off. brady manek letting it rain starting a unc run that left kansas fans stunned. >> and a 15-point margin at halftime. >> reporter: with a title on the line, ku senior david mccormack answered the call. >> down to seven just like that. >> in the second half, the jayhawks outscored unc 31-10. clinching a tough victory. and queueing the confetti for head coach bill self. >> just brought kansas its fourth national title. how does it feel? >> it feels better than good. it feels better than good.

>> congrats, coach. >> reporter: the team overcoming the largest deficit in championship history. >> adrenaline pumping. you got to desire you are going to get it. >> bounced back at halftime. coach had a great message for us and challenged us to be better and have more pride. and we did that. >> reporter: for ku's head coach, the win even more meaningful. after losing his father just two months ago. admitting he still talks to his dad in key moments. >> he always felt nothing was ever given. everything had to be earned. and i think he would be very proud of this team because without question they earned what happened tonight. >> reporter: and bill self's father was actually a coach himself dedicating his career to education which then inspired his son to help enrich the lives of young people. as for this particular squad, a lot of the players are dedicating this victory to 2020, which was a heavy favorite going into that year's tournament before it was canceled from covid.

back to you guys. >> you were saying i wonder what the coach told the team at the half? >> what a great tournament, though. all around. from the peacocks, coach k. they'll be back in the championship game. >> all right. mr. roker, what do you say we get a check of the forecast? >> we're looking at some record-high temperatures down through texas today, even though they've been seeing all of these storms. severe weather now making its way down through the lower mississippi valley. northern parts of minnesota may see a little snow today, some showers in the pacific northwest and rain starts to make its way into the mid-atlantic states. but a beautiful day in the northeast. we're going to get to your local forecast coming up in the next 30 seconds.

we are back. it is 7:39 with carson and there is one question on the mind of golf fans, especially mr. daly. >> tiger woods watch is on will he compete at this week's masters? just 14 months after nearly losing his leg in that devastating car crash, it would be an unbelievable comeback. >> nbc sports mike tirico and senior national correspondent kerry sanders have made their way to augusta national. chat with mike in a moment but first, mr. sanders, good morning, how are you >> good morning. and high anticipation here at augusta, will tiger woods return to play at the masters could he would he after almost losing his leg in that accident about a year ago we'll find out when he makes the announcement at the press conference later this morning. this morning all eyes on tiger, as he continues to prep for the

masters. the 46-year-old golf great played a practice round monday with friend and fellow star justin thomas and golf legend fred couples looking on. >> i watched it today. he looked phenomenal i hope everything keeps going tuesday and wednesday, and i'm sure he's going tee it up thursday. >> reporter: woods still hasn't officially said if he'll play at the masters, which he's already won five times the rules give him until tee time thursday to opt in. woods tweeting, it will be a game-time decision on whether i compete. it would be his first pga tournament since the catastrophic car crash last year which left his right leg shattered and required months of surgery and recovery >> you are a fighter >> his daughter paying tribute to her dad last month. >> you're a fighter. you defy the odds every time >> reporter: tiger's been defying them since he was little

here he is competing at the age of 6 in never-before-seen footage. this past december tiger surprised fans by joining his 13-year-old son charlie at a golf challenge using a golf cart to get around. in february he spoke about his progress. >> i'm still working on the walking part i'm getting better, yes. but as i said, not the speed and rate that i would like >> reporter: pga tournaments require all competitors to walk. at augusta national, where the masters is held is a daunting hike nearly 4 miles of steep elevation changes, equivalent to climbing to the top of the washington monument. >> a formidable challenge for anybody with those kind of orthopedic injuries to try to just walk the course let alone play golf at that high level >> reporter: but insiders say don't count tiger out. >> i have felt many times in his career that he can't come back from something and he's proven me wrong several times

i think he has the greatest will and determination of any athlete in any sport. >> tiger hasn't played in the pga tour since the 2020 masters. but don't forget that remarkable comeback in 2019 where despite enduring surgery as well as personal problems, he not only played, he won guys >> kerry sanders, thank you, kerry. >> let's go. >> mike tirico is there in augusta covering all of the action for the golf channel. mike, i can't help but what tiger said at that news conference i'm still working on the walking part and now there's a conversation of whether or not he will play in the masters. you've been down there for a few days, what is your gut telling you? >> i think everything is leaning in that direction. tiger would not have come up here a week ago today for a practice round or come up here on sunday and play the nine holes of practice. he did sunday and yesterday. he wouldn't have done all of that if he didn't intend to play

so i think barring a major setback we're looking at tiger on the first tee on thursday, which is extraordinary now, this guy has done so many things that we said, na, that's impossible this one might top all of them for those of us who have watched him the last 25 years. >> we know tiger has a flare for the dramatic this would be the 25th anniversary of his first victory at the masters he would also tie jack for 16 jackets. he plays well after injury how much can reread into yesterday when he was outdriving justin forget saying he's going play in the tournament is it possible he's trying to to make the weekend and maybe even win? >> carson, where you excited about this [ laughter ] >> you are as fired up -- carson, what you're talking about, you've known tiger since junior golf days in southern california, that is the way
