eastern ukraine are sustaining extensive damage. cnn's cameras were rolling when the village market was attacked. a senior official is urging the 70,000 remaining residents to evacuate now before russian forces move in. ukraine knows all too well what happened last time putin's forces occupied ukrainian towns. more than 900 bodies of civilians have been discovered sincewithdrew from areas around the capital, many showing signs of torture, rape and brutal execution. cnn's ed lavandera is in the port city of odesa. ed, you recently went to a city ukrainian officials say is under attack in retaliation for the sinking of that flagship, one of russia's key assets now at the bottom of the black sea. what did you see in that city? >> reporter: well, the city of mykolaiv under constant attack. the mayor says russian air strikes hit a kindergarten building. we've seen images of a playground also destroyed by explosions. this comes as this is a city bracing for an offensive from russian forces. the cluster of explosions jolted this neighborhood in mykolaiv. witnesses say some people were walking their dogs in a park at the time. one of the munitions struck feet away from an orthodox church. you can see the impact spot of one of the munitions that went off this morning. as you look around here you can see the impact and the damage done to the church here as well. multiple people were killed and more than a dozen others injured. paramedics treated victims on the scene. across the street this man told us he helped drag two injured people into a store for safety. >> translator: the noise, the noise of a rocket flying and explosions. that's what i saw and heard when he was in the shop. people ran in the store and i saw people scared. i saw people dropping to the ground from explosions. >> reporter: it started around mid morning and appeared to strike three different locations. mykolaiv authorities released this video of a private home burning after a rocket strike. residents in southern ukraine are worried about rue talation of the "moskva" warship. in recent days cnn has witnessed long convoys of families fleeing near mykolaiv. this bombing struck a densely populated area. galina says she was brushing her hair when the bomb landed just outside her apartment window. the blast shattered the glass and shattered her sense of peace. did you think something was going to happen to you? "i didn't think of anything," she tells me. "i thought that was the end of the world." the recent attacks have crippled parts of the city's infrastructure. the water has been out for three days forcing hundreds to get water from a river and natural spring. this man evacuated his mother and plans to stay in the city to fight off the russians. how worried are you that the russians are getting closer? "it worries me a lot," he tells me. if the russians are close, i will fight them. for now residents are left to clean up the bloody aftermath and brace for the next attack. paula, we spent several days traveling through the areas around mykolaiv near the front lines and what stands out when you talk to people, people in the city of mykolaiv and in the regions and small villages near the front lines say they are vowing to stay in flies, to fight the russians in this expected renewed offensive. paula? >> ed lavandera, thank you for that reporting. now i am joined by former commanding general and seventh army mark hertling. general hertling, we're about six weeks into this war. ukraine has just taken out a capable warship. u.s. intel officials say they don't believe it had nuclear weapons on it at the time. and now we see russia appears to be retaliating for that. so is this a turning point in this invasion? >> i don't believe it is, paula. they're going to try and execute the strategic plan president putin has adjusted significantly to continue the attacks in the east to take key cities which will allow them to have maneuver warfare against the russian military. i believe the ukrainian military is ready for that kind of action in the east and in the south. we saw ed lavandera in mykolaiv. the first time russia attempted to attack that city the territorial forces and the citizens fought them off. their attempt was to go further west to odesa. what causes concern in the area there's a river. the russians can't get across and if they can't get across that river and conduct an amphibious operation on the beaches near odesa, it will be difficult to extend their operations to the west. >> pentagon officials say the terrain there is different so the fighting will be different. can you lay out how exactly is the terrain different and how is it going to be distinct from the urban warfare around kyiv and which side has the advantage based on those factors? >> the terrain north is a lot of swamp lands. the russian forces could not get off the roads even if they had wanted to, so they were limited and road bound coming out of c chernihiv and kharkiv. we define maneuver by fire and movement. in the east it also will be difficult. it is different terrain. it's flatland, more like kansas, as admiral kirby said the other day, and it will be a little bit easier to maneuver forces. truthfully the russians have not shown the capacity to maneuver. their forces are not well trained in that. they are lacking manpower for that renewed offensive in the east. and i believe the ukrainian forces have been preparing through exercises and training events to conduct small scale operations, counter attacks, counter maneuvers against russia. so it's going to be very intense, certainly in terms of the fighting. i still leave the ukrainians have the upper hand even in the east. >> the ukrainians are expected to get this heavy weapons shipment from the u.s. the fact it's getting there ahead of russia's offensive, will russia be forced to sort of adjust their approach here? >> well, they may try, paula. this is the interesting thing those of us in the military have been watching. we don't believe -- i don't believe that russia can adjust the way they've been conducting their operations. they are too high bound. their generals do not have the adaptability. the force itself is not well trained. they don't have the sergeants who will direct the forces that the soldiers cannot maneuver off roads. sometimes they don't even have maps to know where they're going. so ukraine forces have been taught this the last ten years. they've gone through a transformation in their military. so we're going to see quick reaction forces from the part of the ukrainians countering some of the russian attempts to get off roads. intelligence will be critically important. all the new weapons systems we've been talking about for the last several days are going to be crucial especially the counterartillery radar that can tell where russian artillery is coming from and then the ukrainians can fight back with long-range fires as well. the fact is we're going to see a lot of new equipment inserted into the battlefield on the ukrainian side. that's always challenging for any force. when i was in iraq and we were delivered mrap trucks, not a difficult piece of equipment to incorporate into the force, it still takes time to get used to and get the bugs out, if you will. the ukrainian forces will have a little of that. i think they have the upper hand as they go against the russians. >> it's been interesting we've seen russia warn of unpredictable consequences if the russian shipments continue to go to ukraine. obviously the u.s. going to stop because of this diplomatic message. so what is the purpleose of thi message from moscow? >> it's a combination of a threat and a bluff, paula. the russians know they have not performed well in all aspects so all they have left are nuclear weapons and cyber attacks. those are the two things they are threatening without saying it. without an army to back up those threats, even the threat of nuclear waeapons or cyber attacks, that we have had a long time to understand through our collection of intelligence what they might be doing next, it's important never to underestimate your enemy but these threats are more bluffs than they are threats. the only problem is any kind of a bluff that has to do with nuclear weapons, you always have to take seriously because of the destructive power of those types of weapons. >> general, thank you for your insight and analysis. >> a pleasure, paula. thank you. and our colleague jake tapper has an exclusive interview with the ukrainian president on the state of the war and ukraine's fight to win. live from lviv tomorrow at 9:00 a.m. and coming up, outrage and calls for charges after an unarmed black man was killed in a traffic stop in michigan. you are live in the cnn "newsroom." ve hair therapy shampoo & condititioner with ceramide & peptide. it nourishes at a cellular level to rescue damaged hair. discover 10 x stronger hair withth new dove hair therapy rescue and prorotect. ♪ (drum roll) ♪ ♪ (energetic music) ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ (camera shutters) the all-new lx 600. ready for any arena. ♪ ♪ this isn't dry food or wet food. it's not burnt brown pellets. the farmer's dog makes it simple to feed your dog real food. it's real meat and veggies. freshly-made. developed with vets. delivered right to your door. that's why dog lovers are choosing the farmer's dog. a smarter, healthier pet food. delivered. visit tryfarmersdog.com and get 50% off your first box of food. in grand rapids, michigan, the grieving parents of an unarmed black man who was shot and killed during a traffic stop there are speaking out following the release of videos showing the fatal encounter. they are calling for the officer who killed their son to be fired and prosecuted. omar jimenez is following the story for us in grand rapids. >> translator: i'm really deeply hurt and wounded. >> reporter: the parents of 26-year-old patrick lyoya speaking publicly through their pastor for the first time since police released video of their son being killed. you still think about him? >> translator: i think about him every time. i still cannot believe that my son died. >> reporter: the family came to the united states to flee war in the democratic republic of conga. but it was in the united states that a bullet kill her son. the father still remembers asking police how his son was killed. >> translator: very astonishing, amazing. they told me he was killed by an officer. i didn't believe it. i said the police are supposed to be watching him and they are the one who kill him. >> reporter: after being pulled over for what police say improper car registration, lyoya starts running. the officer chases and they go to the ground beginning what would become minutes of wrestling and struggling. the officer used his taser twice but failed to make contact as lyoya puts his hands on the taser. when the two go to the ground for what would be the final time struggling for a few brief moments before the officer's final words. >> drop the taser! >> reporter: the officer got up, lyoya didn't. the shooting sparked a mass protest in downtown grand rapids centered on justice for a new face in what many see as a familiar story. the officer who firpd the shot still hasn't been named but has been stripped of his police powers. the lyoya family power is focused on one thing. >> translator: if really patrick is dead, i just ask for justice. >> reporter: now, of course, there are countless examples of officers helping people, but that's not what he's going to remember. when the state investigation wraps up it will be up to the grand rapids police department to determine if this officer faces any disciplinary action and up to the county prosecutor to determine if this officer will face any charges. if it was up to the family they've told me they want this officer fired, arrested and prosecuted. omar jimenez, cnn, grand rapids, michigan. >> thank you, omar. i'm joined by former acting baltimore police commissioner and cnn law enforcement analyst and cnn legal analyst and criminal defense attorney joey jackson. in the video of that traffic stop the officer tells patrick his license plate doesn't match the vehicle. there is an escalation that turns deadly. do you see anything from that video from that chase, that the officer should have done differently? >> well, yes. first, you pull a vehicle over and the operator of the vehicle jumps out of the vehicle, that's a red flag. as an officer and patrol, i've done a job. you stop. you assess what's going on here because that's not normal. you would call for backup and wait for backup to come. instead the officer approaches and everything goes downhill from there. so that's one issue. also, was there a chance to just disengage and not continue? yes. but the officer also was placing him under arrest, and we see that he resisted arrest. he didn't comply with numerous requests including drop the taser. we're locked in at this point and we saw the final tragic results. >> the parents want the identity of the police released. that will only happen if the officer is charged criminally. he is on paid leave. but michigan state police are con detectiving a criminal investigation. at this point is that enough? >> good to be with you. listen, i don't think so and here is why. i think a full conversation of this reveals and certainly we see what happened and there's going to be an and anal sis. at the time the officer fired his weapon did and was the officer in immediate fear of death or bodily injury? you make the assessment if the officer was in fear of death. can you make that decision to kill someone if you're not in fear of death? number two, did the use of force the officer employed, was it proportionate to the threat then posed? i think the answer is probably no. seems to me to be resoundingly no. and then the third aspect did the officer act reasonably as any officer would under those circumstances? i think that could potentially be no and to me it is no. why do i say this? certainly would cry out for potential charges, investigation, certainly dismissal of the officer. in summary, officers are out there serving for communities every single day, risking their lives. when an officer missteps there needs to be accountability. i see accountability coming, the dismissal of the officer coming and i see criminal charges coming from what i see and what i know now. >> commissioner, these types of traffic stops, from what we know now involved a nonviolent offense. the officer is bringing a lethal weapon to this encounter. many people may potentially also have a lethal weapon. some people are asking whether there's a larger solution that could involve using technology to limit these encounters? speeding cameras, not popular but trying to limit the encounters for nonviolent offenses. what is your response to that? >> paula, you brought up a huge point. every encounter with an officer there is a lethal weapon and that is the service we've. there have been case as taser can incapacitate so back to what my esteemed colleague, joey jackson, just said. that is an issue. if the taser is in position of at this point in time, in my opinion, the victim, then the officer has to articulate that use of force. we do see cities across the u.s. trying to move officers away from minor traffic enforcement. a tag not coming back to a vehicle, is that a priority in whatever jurisdiction, whatever state? that's up to them. but if this officer is enforcing the law and there was reasonable suspicion for the stop that is something that michigan has to think about. is this worth it? was this worth a life? a human life is gone over a traffic stop. >> joey jackson and anthanthony thank you for your analysis. >> thank you, paula. coming up, we go back to ukraine. a report from the front lines. >> my children's photo. >> the devastating impact there. you said you'd never do a lot of things. but you never knew all the things a dog could do for you. and with resolve you never h hae to worry about the mess. love the love, resolve the mess. ♪ three times the electorlytes and half the sugar. ♪ pedialyte powder packs. feel better fast. your record label is taking off. but so is your sound engineer. you need to hire. i need indeed. indeed you do. indeed instant match instantly delivers quality candidates matching your job description. visit indeed.com/hire this is xfinity rewards. our way of showing our appreciation. with rewards of all shapes and sizes.

>> the reason we're in federal court it meets one of the federal definitions of the word terrorism. it is a terrorist act to launch a deadly or potentially deadly attack. i can tell you having been both a federal and state prosecutor generally speaking it's better for prosecutors and worse for defendants to be in federal court, conviction rates are higher. generally the feds have more resources and the sentencing is really the big factor here because if this defendant is convicted, he is very likely to be sentenced to life in prison. in the federal sentence if you are sentenced to life, you do life. there is no early parole. if he gets convicted he will be behind bars for life. a different, high-profile investigation. this week exclusive cnn reporting revealed text message conversations between former trump chief of staff mark meadows and two members of congress, both trump loyalists, who appeared to support trying to overturn the election and then had a real quick change of heart once it got closer to january 6th. what's your take system away from these text messages? how do you think they will factor into this investigation? they were, of course, senator mike lee and tex tech congressman chip roy. >> the most interesting thing to me these texts show they knew they had nothing. they knew they had no actual evidence of voter fraud and you can see them going through the process. they're saying, boy, we really need to have some evidence to move forward here. then you see that moving to, uh-oh, we don't have any evidence and you see they carried on with this effort anyway, to steal the election with this fraudulent effort to claim there was voter fraud even though they had no evidence, and that's so corrosion because the defense that you will hear, you have heard, well, they thought they were really pursuing actual evidence of voter fraud. they thought they won and were entitled to contest this. it shows from really fairly early on they knew they had nothing, they knew this was a fraud this goes to their intent, to consciousness of guilt. >> i know you and i talk about whether mark meadows will be held in contempt. the meadows text messages have been a gold mine for investigators. he has done his part in their investigation. did you see any particular texts that caught your eye, particularly something material to the investigators? >> yeah, these meadow texts are so revealing. the first one is from november 7th, it comes from chip roy. quote, dude, we need ammo. we need fraud examples, examples of voter fraud. we need it this weekend. meadows writes we are working on exactly that. the initial days after the election, worried we're going to need evidence. if you fast forward 12 days to november 19 there's another exchange where senator mike lee texts meadows. the potential defamation liability for the president is significant here for the campaign and for the president personally unless powell, sidney powell, can back up everything she said, referring to her sort of wild claims of voter fraud, which i kind of doubt she can, senator lee says. and meadows responds, i agree. very concerned. and so that shows you as of november 19, mark meadows, the chief of staff, knew darned well there was no evidence of voter fraud and yet what does he do? what does donald trump do? they continue to claim this in public. they continue to claim this in court. and that, i would argue, is where the fraud is. >> well, dude, i would argue that meadows has really provided a lot of ammo to this committee. thank you so much. >> thanks, paula. and still to come, a plea from wildlife officials after this stranded dolphin dies on a texas beach. you're live in the cnn "newsroom." ♪ we believe there's an innovatator in all of us. ♪ that's why we build technology that makes it possible for every business... and every person... to come to the table and do more incredible things. meet apartment 2a, 2b and 2c. 2a's monitoring his money with a simple text. like what you see abe?
