Summary

Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky warned that the shelling of the Azovstal steel plant in Mariupol is “not stopping” even as “civilians still need to be taken out.” A Ukrainian commander at the steel plant said there are “bloody battles” unfolding. Retired Lt. Gen. Mark Hertling tells Anderson Cooper how difficult it is to storm an industrial complex with underground bunkers and tunnels. Plus, new evidence has been found in the Madeleine McCann case and a German prosecutor says he is “sure” Christian Brückner killed the British girl. McCann disappeared from a resort in Portugal in 2007 when she was just three-years-old. CNN National Correspondent Randi Kaye gives AC360 an update on the case and what could happen next.
