>> reporter: as you were saying, yes, there appear to have been a small number of women and children according to one ukrainian official who have begun their evacuation journey. it was supposed to start at 6:00 a.m. but it seems that the convoy taking them out didn't arrive until 6:25. and russian state media say that these are individuals from the azovstal steel plant and they do apparently include six children. the question is which way do they go. because evacuation from mariupol isn't simply told ukraine held territories, like zaporizhzhia. it could also mean a darker journey east towards russia where there have been filtration camps set up for those taken out of mariupol. and so this is obviously a key question. the second one being this is the start of something or a rare exception. for weeks now, the talk of humanitarian corridors out of mariupol has reverberated around all of ukraine to try to bring those 100,000 civilians caught in in levels of disease that has left the city unrecognizable. so the question is whether or not we are seeing some sort of change in russia's perspective. they have come under pressure from the united nations secretary-general who visited the kremlin to talk about this partially and there may be some pressure upon russian occupiers to deal with the number of civilians that they have in the mirds midst because of the growing issue of disease. and behind me there is an air raid siren. and this is a longer one that we're hearing tonight. >> yeah, very ominous. so there have been explosions in odesa. what have we learned about that? >> reporter: yeah, it appears according to officials there that the airports, the international airport on the outskirts of town, was indeed hit, perhaps its runway struck. a number of explosions reported around that city, a combat plane seen in the sky, that may be possibly related to the submarines, activity in the black sea that you were showing earlier. we don't know when those videos were released or what they were fired at, or if there is indeed an accurate video from that specific time. but it is important to put odesa in context. it is of course a key target for the kremlin. russian-speaking city that is on the black seacoast of a million people, a cultural economic hub. but takeit is a huge task. something that they have taunted a skooucouple weeks ago, maybe second phase of their operation would involve them take position the black seacoast entirely. they have been trying that for months. so it may be about trying to keep ukrainian officials guessing as to what russia's actual goal in its renewed offensive in the south actually is. are they headed west towards even the border with moldova where we've seen some military activity over the past days. are they headed to here, the president's hometown, or are they headed east, that is where i put my money, east toward the donbas to link up with that. >> all right. thank you for the late tlst the in ukraine. a mother kof the boy killed fighting for ukraine is talking about his death. wi willy cancel was killed. and president biden mourned his death and noted that he leaves behind a wife and infant. brian todd has more on the americans who have joined the fight. >> reporter: he is a 22-year-old american, and leaves behind a wife and 7 month old baby. form he u.s. marine willy joseph cancel, killed on the battlefield in ukraine, according to cancel's mother who spoke to cnn. >> even before he left to go to ukraine, you know, he was proud because he wanted to do the right thing, you know, fight alongside the underdogs and help them with things that he thought was important. >> reporter: neither cancel's mother nor u.s. officials could provide information on how or where cancel was killed. >> we know a family is mourning, a wife is mourning, and our hearts are with them. >> reporter: cancel's mother tells cnn that he was working a full-time job as a corrections officer in tennessee when he signed up to work for a private military contracting company shortly before the ukraine war broke out. when the conflict began, she says cancel agreed to go. he flew to poland on march 12 and crossed in to ukraine shortly thereafter. she said that he was being paid while he was fighting there. >> that is a horse of a different color than his being directly in some kind of ukrainian foreign legion. and that begs the question, who is the client of this private contracting company? is it for the government of ukraine? >> reporter: no immediate answers to those questions. and u.s. officials say that they don't have an exact count of how many americans are fighting in ukraine. ukrainian defense official told cnn in early march that at that time more than 20,000 people from more than 50 countries had expressed a desire to join the fight. cnn has interviewed some americans who volunteered. former tv analyst malcolm nance described fighting in a special ukrainian unit called the international legion. >> it is not just people running around grabbing rifles and going on the battlefield. it is a unified force that is a component of the ukrainian army key empl deployed on the battle front. >> reporter: but james vasquez says he was moving around loosely. >> i'm pretty much a ghost. me and a british soldier, him and i have been going unit to unit, you know, wherever needed the most. >> reporter: but u.s. officials are again warning americans don't go to ukraine to fight. >> this is an active warzone, this is not the place to be traveling to. >> reporter: state department officials say russian forces could single out americans fighting in ukraine. one official warning that captured americans could be subject to, quote, heightened risk of mistreatment. >> it is not hard to imagine a situation in which a captured american is tortured, is executed on the battlefield, or is just sent back to moscow to be some type of pawn for political exchange. >> reporter: at the time she spoke to cnn, willy cancel's mother said the people who notified her of his death said his body had not been found. and the men who were with him were trying to recover the body but it was too dangerous. brian todd, cnn, washington. a nationwide manhatunt is under way after a sheriff's deputy disappeared along with a murder suspect she was reportedly transferring to court. vicky white said that she was driving casey white for a mental health evaluation but the pair never made it, and it turns out no evaluation was even scheduled. nadia romero is following this for us. they have been missing since 9:30 yesterday morning. do officials suspect that the officer is in on it? >> that is the big question. right? because she has been with the department for such a long time. and the sheriff says that some things just aren't adding up. she said that she was going to take him on a medical evaluation, but there was no evaluation or hearing on the books. so there are questions so if she is an accomplice or was she taken hostage. but here is what we know about casey cole white, there he is, very distinctive looks. the one with the hair, the one without hair. but here is one way to identify him. he is 6'9". so he should stick out in any crowd especially if he is trying to be unnoticed. he is a very tall man. so that is what you should be looking for if you think that you are in the area of, you may come across him. we know that he has a long rap sheet of violent convictions. he was sentenced and serving more than 75 years. look at those charges. burglary and attempted murder and kidnapping. those are the charges that he was convicted of when he left with vicky white. now, this is the corrections officer who had been with that county, lauderdale county there in alabama for some 16 years. she was also an assistant director of corrections. and the sheriff said she should have known the policy that two sworn officers should have been with that inmate escorting him at all times. he also says that he just doesn't know if she is a part of the scheme to help him escape or she was simply overpowered by the inmate. now, this is a major concern for the families who have been impacted by the crimes and alleged crimes of casey white. take a look at 59-year-old connie ridgeway. she was killed back in october 2015, she was murdered in her apartment. and it rattled the community and it wasn't until five years later until 2020 that the their arrive's office says that casey white confessed to killing ridgeway.theirarrive's office s casey white confessed to killing ridgeway. wl listen to her son explain the emotions that came up again. >> it does really bring it all back, the shock, and you just kind of wonder how it is possible. there is a part of me that knows that justice will be served and you just have to leave to god and leave to law enforcement to do their jobs to bring them in. but it is not something that i thought i would experience again. >> so casey white is facing capital murder charges in connection to the death. he confessed to killing connie ridgeway. but he also now faces more charges because of this escape. the faib also investigating. pamela. >> all right, nadia, thank you. coming up this hour, angelina jolie is supporting ukraine with a low key trip there. meantime millions of people in southern california brace for water shortages as the west faces a record drought. and next hour, to forgive and forget?

>> anywhere from southern wisconsin down to the boot hill of missouri, under tornado watches until 8:00 central time. the threat of tornadoes, threat of hail as long as a golf ball and winds up to 70 miles per hour. you are already starting to see some of the storms erupting in that area. and the threat stretches from the great lakes down into eastern texas. so let's time it out for you. watch the storms as they approach chicago. even though chicago and st. louis are not in the watch, it wouldn't surprise me if new watches are issued as the night goes on. watch the storms push to the east. indianapolis by around 11:00 and pre-dawn possibly cincinnati stretching down to let's say jackson, mississippi. but we're not done yet. unfortunately, we've got a new storm threat on the horizon for sunday and monday. so we'll kick off a new month where the old one left off with more tornadoes, possibility of tornados especially in the texas panhandle as well as unfo unfortunately monday in sections of wichita that were just hit last night. and speaking of those storms, the national weather service is out doing a damage survey now so they can assess the strength of these storms. a couple of ef-0 to ef-1 in northern kansas. still waiting the survey results of the tornado struck with the pictures that you are seeing on the screen right now. and we're in a drumbeat of a lot of tornadoes this season. march set a record, april was over 200. and we're on our way to that same tendency as we start the month of may. >> yeah, that is not a good sign for the future. all right. gene norman, thank you. the historic drought in the west has authorities in southern california taking drastic measures. outdoor watering in three counties is limited to just once per week. the first time water officials have ever implemented such a strict rule. camilla bernard is there for us. how much worse could this get? >> reporter: a lot worse. officials are telling me that it could get to the point where many in southern california won't be able to water their lawns at all, but they are hopeful that people listen to the warnings so that we don't get to that point. but no matter where you look, it is becoming a lot easier to see the evidence of this mega drought in this region. in particular in lake mead which provides drinking water for more than 25 million people. the water levels are so low that its original valve put in in 1971 now sits above the water. so officials knew this was going to happen and in 2015 they started building a new valve that would go deeper. and that is what is in operation right now. it started operating this weekend, they say that things are going as planned, people are still getting their drinking water. but the thing is that this highlights the problem and how big this problem is, how low the water is. not just in lake mead, but in many of the lakes and resident vois reservoirs in the region. and california as a whole. so beginning june 1, at least 6 million people will be impacted because they are being told to only water their lawns once a week. and as we mentioned, it could get worse. that is what the metropolitan water district of southern california told us. we spoke to the general manager and here is what what he said. >> if i don't see the response between now and september, then i will go in a mandating a full ban of outdoor watering across the service area that is impacted. that is serious and i'm ready do it. >> reporter: and there will be fines for people who do not reduce their water usage. different cities will manage it differently. but at the end of the day, what they told me is look, we're running out of water and people need to listen and conserve water because it could get a lot worse. >> camila bernal, thank you very much. you're in the "cnn newsroom." still ahead, key moments in russia's war in ukraine. mason clark will be joining me with his thoughts. i brought in ensureax protein, with thirty grams of protein. those who tried me felt more energy in just two weeks!

>> thank you for having me. we don't know for sure whether or not the russian navy has used submarines to date in its invasion since february 24. we know that they have been using this type of cruise missile for quite some time. there is a good chance that they were already using submarines, but this is just the first time that they have acknowledged it, likely to score propaganda victory and talk up the various weapons that they are using. but they used submarines throughout the russian intervention in syria, particularly 2016 and 2017 to conduct very similar caliber cruise missile strikes. >> why do you think that they are just starting to do this now in the war? we're so many months into this. what do you think this indicates to you? >> reporter: in large part i do think that it is almost a flexing of their capabilities in the leadup to may 9, which is victory day and very important holiday that the kremlin sort of centers a lot of its narratives around. as well as likely they are having to bring in new capabilities that they may not have originally deployed for this war as it has gone on certainly longer than the kremlin has wanted and they are having to use these new munitions with surface warships possibly running out of their own stores or being threatened by ukrainian defenses. >> and i want to talk about the ukrainian counter offenses. we're seeing russia escalate, but we've also seen a lot from the ukrainian counteroffenses being able to push russia back and make russia change its war strategy. tell us about that and how effective they were particularly in mykolaiv where that was so important. >> sure. so just today and in the last 48 hour, we've been seeing in the northeast part of the country a number of attacks around kharkiv. and the ukrainian forces there are likely trying to force the russians to send reinforcements intended for their offensive in the east to shore up those defenses and prevent the ukrainians from pushing further out. but as you noted, ukrainians have had a number of successes so far in the war and one of the most key was in mid march, it was around march 18 i believe when they finished it near that city of mykolaiv on the southern coast of ukraine. over the course of a few days, ukrainian forces pushed the russians back around 90 kilometers, it was the first major ukrainian counteroffensive in the war and pretty much ended russian efforts to drive down to the key city of odesa which was almost certainly a major russian goal at the start of the war. since then russian forces in kherson kherson have been largely on the defensive trying to maintain current positions against further counterattacks by ukrainian forces. >> and odesa is being hit hard by the russians. it is clear that that is part of ukraine that russia wants to take as part of its strategy. you believe though another key moment is a briefing by a russian spokesman on march 25th. tell us about that. >> sure. so that was done by the spokesperson of the russian ministry of defense to sort of sum up the kremlin's desired framing of the first months of what they still continue to call the special military operation, not a war, in ukraine. it was noteworthy in that it was the first claim by the russian military that their focus was going to be on eastern ukraine, claiming that the operation around kyiv was just to distract and degrade the ukrainian military, but that the real focus would be capturing donetsk in the east of the country. but very importantly, that was just incorrect. the russian war aim at the beginning of the invasion on february 24 was decapitation stwrik e strike essentially to capture kyiv and force them to came pit uhe late. that failed pretty early on. but that march 24th speech was the first acknowledgement that the kremlin was revising its objectives in the war and shifting to the east. even though it came a week or two after that operation around kyiv had largely failed. >> do you think russia will use nuclear weapons during this war? >> unfortunately we cannot fully rule it out. i think that to be very clear, it is very unlikely, but there is a possibility that the russian military will use some sort of tactical nuclear weapon in ukraine likely to try to force the ukrainian government into surrendering and dissuading the u.s. from any further aid. but we've seen no indications for active preparations of a nuclear weapon and it would be a major, major escalation that we don't see coming anytime soon. >> yeah, certainly. so a long so the that would happen is what i hear from you, but a non zero chance. thank you very much for coming on. >> thanks for having me. coming up, dying for what they believed. why the fda commissioner believes that misinformation is killing more maamericans than anything else. that meaeans that i earn 5% on our rental car, i i earn 5% on our cabin. i mean, c'mon! hehello cashback! hello, kevin hart! i'm scared. in a good way. i'm lying. let's get inside. earn big time with chase freedom unlimited with no annual fee. how do you cashback?

>> so the sandy hook shooting, because of the magnitude of the crime, was really kind of a watershed moment in the gun debate. it was seen that way by both sides, whether you were for or against additional gun legislation, pamela, you were engaged by this particular event. and people rightly thought that this would be a moment in which there would be a very heated debate over gun legislation. and for people who opposed that legislation, denying the sandy hook shooting became a kind of tool in their toolkit part of the battle, they began to spread the light that this was an elaborate hoax that was a pretext by the federal government to deprive americans of their firearms. >> i will never forget personally speaking to a player who was in the nfl, i will not name names, well-known player, who actually mentioned the sandy hook conspiracy theory to me. and i remember be taken aback like you believe that? i mean, it just was fascinating to me as a journalist to see people of all different backgrounds and positions in society believing this. sandy hook families are suing for those calling the shooting a hoax. explain what you mean when you said that it is a foundational moment for misinformation and disinformation. it seems like that it was in some ways a pivotal moment when it comes to conspiracy theories. >> absolutely. the shooting occurred not only as we just discussed at this pivotal moment for the gun debate, but it also was a moment in which social media usage among americans had increased exponentially from the time of the last major school shooting which was in 2007 at virginia tech. there was none of that conspiracy theorizing around that shooting which was horrific, 32 people died in that shooting. but there just wasn't the uptake. and so in 2008 at the time of virginia tech for example there were 20 million global facebook users. five years later when sandy hook happened, there were one billion global users of facebook. twitter, there were 5,000 tweets a day in 2007. and five years later during sandy hook, there were 5,000 tweets every second. so we just had this sort of delivery mechanism for these conspiracy theories, we had the moment where people who opposed new gun legislation found it convenient to just say that the shooting never happened. and we had a kind of political moment in the country where people were ready to embrace, we had already seen people embrace the racist betirther lie about president obama. and so it was fertile territory for it to this root. but then also pizzagate, kqanon the 2020 election lie and the attack on the capitol. >> i have family members that believe in pizzagate and there is no way that i can talk them out of it, even providing the facts. and i've heard that anecdotally from so many others. i wonder though, how much of it is about like politics and people trying to like, you know, do it for political motivations, and how much of it is about like emotions? right, you can't accept and process such a horrible thing happening like the sandy hook shooting, like this is the only way that you can kind of move forth. >> that is a great question, pamela. so in the very beginning, after the shooting, a lot of the people who didn't want to believe that it happened were young moms as a matter of fact who had children around the same age as the children who were killed. first graders, five and six years old. those people were there for anybody who could tell them that these little children hadn't died in that way. but they were pretty swiftly convinced. and then what people were left with was this sort of hard knot of people who got a lot of psychic income from spreading this myth. it sort of elevated them, they became, you know, citizen journalists and online investigators. and they gathered in big groups on social media and they built each other up, they enhanced each other's self-esteem, they had a sort of importance and a sense of social belonging that they built around spreading this lie. and so it has gone ever since with every one of these big misinformation campaigns. >> and look at qanon right there, it is just incredible to see how that has just picked up like wildfire and is spreading across the world. elizabeth williamson, just a fascinating conversation. i hope you will come back on the show to further discuss this, so much more to talk about with this issue. >> thanks, pamela. naomi judd of the country duo the judds has died we just learned. ♪ mama he's crazy, crazy over me ♪ >> naomi and her daughter would i know in a ruled the country music charts in the 1980s. the kentucky natives won five grammy awards.know in a ruled t music charts in the 1980s. the kentucky natives won five grammy awards. she was also the mother of ashley judd. her daughters write today we sisters experienced a tragedy. we lost our beautiful mother to the disease of mental illness. we are are shattered. we are navigating profound grief and we know that as we loved her, she was loved by her public. we are in unknown territory. naomi judd was 76. um, she's eating the rocket. ♪ lunchables! built to be eaten. what if you could have the perspective to see more?
