Summary

Mariupol’s mayor says civilians continue to be targeted just days after the Russians bombed a maternity hospital that killed at least three people, including a child. Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky called the attack "proof of a genocide.” CNN’s Chief International Correspondent Clarissa Ward is in Kyiv and gives AC360 an update on the evacuation efforts and how far Russian forces are from the city center. Plus, the White House is warning Russia may use chemical weapons in Ukraine. Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy is a member of the Foreign Relations Committee. He tells Anderson Cooper the United States “should be focused on helping the Ukrainians but staying out of direct conflict with Russia.” To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.
