. >> more now on the deadly attacks from cnn's nick peyton walsh. >> reporter: this was the day the war came back to all of ukraine. the capitol, kyiv, like many cities for months edging towards normal hit by multiple missile strikes. carnage at rush hour. central streets hit. target unclear. the aim, utter horror. over 100 missiles and drones. the civilian death toll rising along with global fury. there was nothing the kremlin would not hit. even this kyiv walkway to save face from endless losses and the weekend blast that hit another bridge between russia and crimea. russian president vladimir putin gloating at the strikes yet promising more ahead if ukraine replied. in terms of the further act of terrorism or territory of russia, the russian reply will be harsh and corresponding to the level of threat to the russian federation, have no doubt about it. for a few hours this morning almost all of ukraine's cities seemed under attack. plus, next to this crater caught by one of two missiles critically injuring five. you can see the utter ferocity of the explosion here by a hole. it's also

cnn's nick peyton walsh joins us live from inside ukraine again., quote, consulting, consulting to establish exact borders. what does that tell you? >> reporter: it tells that you their policy is in complete disarray. they are already supposed to have, quote, consulted the public when they held the sham referenda if they were conducted on military occupation at the points of the gun being asked to ask somebody what direction they wanted to vote. so we're in this odd situation where russia's reality continues there. parliamentary bodies rubber stamping what we knew was going to happen anyway. as soon as they announced they were going to be having the referenda that it would be ushered through. the problem the kremlin have is they don't control significant parts of the areas and they control less day by day. dmitry peskov asked where the borders of kherson, zaporizhzhia, two regions where they have claimed their territory, where they began and ended, how much have they thought they had assimilated. they couldn't tell how much they had, they were cons

cnn international security director nick peyton walsh is on the front lines. >> reporter: night is whene south busies. humvees speed the roads. incendiary munitions light up the light. air defenses around the russian-held heavily defended town just three miles south of here. it's the gateway to the big prize, the city of kherson where russia is already evacuating civilians and low on supplies. they say shelling has been noticeably less over the past month and a half probably because of the damage done to supply lines the russians need to bring munitions towards the front here. >> reporter: radio chatter they've intercepted between russians here is ammo running out and conscripts fleeing. in three days moving around the front lines here it's clear ukraine's movement forwards has met a hardened russian defense, even if they are low on ammo. on this tree line to the west, the russian paratroopers are under a mile away. new trenches are being dug and camouflage being laid out. nature is about to turn on both sides equally. >> so obviously in the winter the cover of the trees will be gone so

nick peyton walsh is live in ukraine. what can you tell us about the new strikes? >> reporter: still very early days for precisely what is at the moment. i should caution by this point yesterday we had seen larger amount of russian missile strikes in ukraine. this appears to be lesser. some officials in odessa. others are saying some of these missiles have, indeed, been shot down. there appears to be damage to part of the energy structure but it does seem like russia is trying to sustain the feeling of constant threat ukrainians lived with throughout much of yesterday. certainly many people in the country woken by an alert on their phones. why i had's death toll now at 19. it seems dozens of people injured and here are the remarkable scenes that many ukrainians spent yesterday enduring. this was the day the war came back to all of ukraine. the capitol, kyiv, like many cities edging towards normal hit by multiple missile strikes. carnage at rush hour. central streets hit. target, unclear. the aim, utter horror. over 100 missiles and drones. the civilian death toll r

nick peyton walsh gives us a firsthanded look at the liberated city of lyman. >> reporter: it may noth, but there is where putin's defeat in donetsk began. lyman, what's left of it, now freed of russia. this is what it was all about. the central railway hub now in ukrainian hands and devastated by the fighting. this was such a seminal part of russia's annexation. the concern more moscow is the knockout effect this will have all the way to the russian border. on the town's edges we saw no sign of the hundreds of russian prisoners all dead that had been expected to follow moscow's strategic defeat here. nor inside it either. perhaps they have already been taken away. instead, utter silence. only local bicycles on the streets. several residents told us the russians actually left in large numbers on friday. >> they left in the night and the day, people said. they sat on their apcs and their bags were falling off as they drove. they ran like this. >> reporter: it would be remarkable timing. that russia fled lyman in the very same hours that putin was signing papers declaring here russian t

nick peyton walsh, thank you. >>> well, the new term of the supreme court is officially under way.t is just ketanji brown jackson's first day hearing oral arguments. today the supreme court let a ban on bump stops stand. and declined to hear an appeal over vaccine mandates for health care workers. cnn's supreme court reporter joins us. catch us up on this today. >> right. this was the first time we saw justice jackson from the bench. she actually was a super aggressive questioner. she jumped right in. had lots of follow up. the case before the court had to do with the authority of the epa. there was a couple of things you could tell that were new to her. she messed up with the microphone a little bit. but in general, she was really at ease. and that's because she has a lot of experience on multimember courts. she seemed to sort of joke with her bench mate justice kavanaugh over something. interestingly enough, she chose to wear today one of those lace collars, sort of reminiscent of ruth bader ginsburg who was known for those. she really hit the ground running to day in the first c

. >> nick peyton cal walsh, thank you. >>> joining me is retired general mark kimmitt. thanks for being with us. it seems russia is hellbent on retaliating for the humiliation of that bridge being blown up. what do you see now when you look at what the ukrainians were able to pull off and what appears to be an act of russian retill asian, going after civilians as they've done time and again. >> it's hard to believe this was not a ukrainian operation. within 24 hours they were issuing a stamp with an attack on the crimean bridge put on the stamp. pretty conclusive to me that that was done by the ukrainians. with regards to the retaliation, i think that comes at the same time you've got the general taking over the entire operations inside of ukraine. he's well known to be like his predecessor da vorn kof, a veteran of syria. he was accused of doing the massive bombing inside aleppo. i suspect he's coming in not only to prove that they can respond to the attack on the bridge but also to demonstrate what a tough commander he's going to be on the russian forces inside ukrain
