Summary

Russia is accusing Ukraine of orchestrating an attack on a fuel depot inside Russian territory but CNN is unable to verify Russian claims that the fire was caused by an air strike from Ukrainian helicopters. The Ukrainian Ministry of Defense has neither confirmed nor denied the attack. Retired Maj. Gen. Dana Pittard joins AC360 to discuss who he thinks is responsible for the attack. Plus, buses rescue nearly 800 people originally from the besieged city of Mariupol. CNN Senior International Correspondent Ivan Watson tells AC360 what the evacuees can expect.
