coventry direct.com >> i'm ryan young in jackson, mississippi. and this is cnn skis, cnn breaking news

>> hello again, everyone. thank you so much for joining me. i'm fredricka whitfield in atlanta and we're watching several breaking news stories this hour in russia, fast developments on the shooting at a moscow area concert venue that. has left more than 130 people dead. and in the uk and around the world, shock and sadness over news that catherine the princess of wales, has cancer. cnn anchor and royal correspondent max foster, a standing by outside buckingham palace will take hi there in a moment, but first, let's focus on what's happening in russia where moments ago russian state media published a reported concession from one of the suspected attackers on that concert hall. cnn cannot independently verify the veracity of the report or the statements made by the alleged attacker which may have been made under duress president vladimir putin is vowing all of those responsible will suffer on inevitable

punishment after armed gunman opened fire on the crowd the death toll has now risen to more than one hundred and 30 with more than 100 others injured trying to escape the carnage explosives set the building on fire, and authorities say, part of that blaze is still burning at this hour. isis is claiming responsibility for the attack. but in his first video message since the massacre, russian president vladimir putin suggested the attackers may have ties to ukraine she cheat up all for direct perpetrators of the terrorist attacks are those who shot and killed people were found >> and detained they tried to hide and move towards ukraine where according to preliminary data, a window was prepared for them on the ukrainian side to cross the state border total of 11 people were detained all

right here with this now former cnn moscow bureau chief jill dougherty, cnn global affairs analyst kim dosha, and cnn chief law enforcement and intelligence analyst. john miller. great to see all of you jill, you first you heard some of the words there from president putin, stay statement. there. we've heard other russian officials imply, without evidence at some sort of connection is made there between the terrorists and ukraine why do you believe of putin either believes it or says it? >> well, whether he believes it is another question. he's saying it because their primary mission right now is to convince the russian people that putin is absolved of responsibility for either preventing this attack or for the really you have to say botched response. so that's our primary objective. and you can see they're having difficulty putting the pieces of this narrative together. but essentially, it all goes back to ukraine in their view. and

president putin coming out with that kind of indirect statement here across it. the border in a window prepared for them so it's not really clear, but they want to keep the finger on ukraine and try to go with that narrative. but i think the domestic considerations right now are really, really important. russians have been through many terror attacks and once again, in they are the victims and it looks like the government and putin did not protect them >> and i can make the kremlin says 11 suspects have been arrested so far, including four directly responsible for the attack. russia's interior ministry was quick to point out that all of the detain suspects it's our foreign citizens and it is likely that they're also being interrogated about their alleged responsibility. what kind of messaging does it send to the russian people?

>> well, as joe was saying that this is not something that moscow could have foreseen their setting up this narrative that outside help was given to carry out this attack. so that even if you do eventually that this was an ice and course on offshoot attack that somehow the nemesis ukraine was implicated, or at least helped out now, russia has a long-standing battle against isis in syria. it battled against isis on behalf of the assad regime, which it continued to support and prop up and in afghanistan now, russia is a an ally of the taliban and isis k of course, has been carrying out attacks against the taliban. and anyone alive with the taliban. also, the fsb, the russian sticks services have talked about stopping very isis plots inside the country's. so there's a

definite smoking gun here they just don't want to talk about that because then the question is, did putin-led his eye off the ball because he was conducting a war of conquest against great. >> then john, what is the distinction if there is one between isis, which is being blamed for earlier attempted attacks versus this incident which is being pinned on an isis k so isis has been degraded to the point of struggling to still exist. but ice is k or isis corazon has been the external operations planning for terrorist attacks operation within isis for a number of years. and even as isis has been degraded to the point of nearly disappearing, ice, just corazon operating in the shadowy regions, but between afghanistan and pakistan with affiliates

elsewhere in south, the south asia has continued to launch attacks in the name of isis 2022, a suicide bombing against the russian embassy in afghanistan. of course, during the us withdrawal ice is k was tagged with responsibility for the devastating suicide bombing attack that killed, so many who were trying to flee, as well as us marines and soldiers and as jill points out, as kim points out ice is k. the propaganda, the history has been against russia against afghanistan, against their growing allegiance so it's a narrative that makes sense at the same time, putin has to rewrite that narrative carefully. one that accepts the rest of the intelligence community's of the world, may attribute this to isis and ices k but he needs to to make this more than just a security failure. but try to recast it as russia's october 7

at least casts that there are some ukraine fingerprints on it and we're seeing those wheels spin today. >> and then jill this attack comes just a week after the russian presidential election so how will vladimir putin, i guess, tried to distance this attack from his new leadership as he's now in his fifth term. >> i think there's an interesting pivot he has to do. he has to say, i'm not responsible, but this is a war. so and you saw that in his comments right after actually this morning, i believe when he was urging russians were all united. this will never happen again. interesting to note, i think fred, that you have his spokesperson now using the word war to describe the war in ukraine before it was special military operation. but now it is war. and then you also have

the defense minister talking about creating three more armies. and that means you need more men. and that could mean a full mobilization of the, of the fighting force. that's something that kremlin really wanted. it needed to do, but didn't want to do because of the possible response by the russian public it could be that they are now moving toward that >> and then kim do you see that president putin is going to use this attack as further impetus to change the strategy in ukraine well, he certainly seems to be laying the groundwork for blaming kyiv in some manner, shape, or form and that will feed into his longstanding plan that he keeps moving forward with. he's put russia on a war footing. he secured military supplies to get to his troops. and now he just needs to shore up the russian public's drive and

desire to continue this war whatever happened actually at the theater. he's going to make this part of that. >> and then john, now that we've seen this attack in russia you know, what kind of notice says this put other nations on even after? western nations, including the us issued warnings to putin that something like this would happen. but now that this has actually happened, do you see the us and other western nations? putting themselves on high alert >> well, it's certainly underscores that isis corazon's still has external operations that go beyond afghanistan and pakistan. but the ability to reach into and recruit and other countries. if in fact the attribution to them holds and it's still as my colleagues pointed out today out of crisis comes opportunity and we can certainly see that vladimir putin is trying to figure out how to best use this, whether it's going to be

in his countermeasures and russia or his war efforts in ukraine all right, we'll leave it there. thank you so much to all of you. john miller, kim dozer, jill dougherty >> and just moments ago >> president biden signed that government funding bill that the us senate passed in the wee hours of this morning according up potentially catastrophic that's government shutdown. the 1.2 trillion dollar package funds nearly three quarters of a government for the next six months cnn's annie grayer, joining us. now with the latest on the last-minute details on the bill well, fred, there is a sigh of relief on capitol hill because lawmakers finally have averted a government >> shutdown, the senate was working late into the night to pass this bill and they finally did it at 02:00 a.m. it now heads to the president's desk where he's expected to sign it. so we're not expecting to see any lapse in federal funding. this bill funded the remaining government agencies so that includes the department of defense, the department of

homeland security, and the department of health and human services, among others. so now that the government is funded through this fiscal year, we can just take a step back and realize how chaotic and tumultuous this was we always knew was going to be challenging to fund the government and a divided congress. but this really was next level. republicans have such a small majority in the house and democrats control the senate. and what made this really challenging was republicans tried to put a number of partisan policies into these appropriations bills which set up a stalemate. and long painstaking negotiations with the senate. so we saw lawmakers passing the short-term extensions usually right up until the 11th hour until we got to this point. i mean, think about it. kevin mccarthy essentially lost his job for his handling of this back in october when republicans al sit him as speaker house speaker mike johnson now is facing a threat from republican congresswoman marjorie taylor greene overs his handling of the appropriations process will

have to see how that plays out. but now that lawmakers have funded the government through the end of this fiscal year, they have time to reflect before they have to do it all again soon fred. >> all right. annie grayer. thank you so much. again, the president has now assigned that measure. let's bring in cnn, senior white house reporter kevin liptak in washington kevin, what are you hearing from the white house? yeah. the >> president's signature really >> kind of punctuating what was a tortured saga over the last several months to try and get the government funded president biden in a statement just now saying that this measure keeps the government open. he says that invests in the american people. and he says that it strengthens the economy and the american national security. and you really do see in this measure both sides pointing to things that they say that they got out the president saying in that statement saying that it represents a compromise, which means neither side got everything that it wanted. and you see republicans pointing to

some of the measures on border security, including 2000 new border patrol agents and 8,000 more detention beds for migrants as examples of ways that this funding in bill strengthens the southern border. that's obviously a key priority for them. you also see democrats talking about what they got out of this bill, including 1 billion for federal childcare and education like head start things like $120 million for cancer research. there's also money in there for alzheimer's for each search. and what this bill also does is cut aid to the un agency that provides funding to the palestinians. and of course, the biden administration had cut that aid after allegations that some members of that agency, we're aiding hamas. and so the president really glad that this very tortured the process is over. but in this statement, he's also pointing to the next funding battle on capitol hill, which is this battle for more aid to ukraine. and of course,

the congress has stalled on passing this $60 billion that president biden has requested. you hear ever more urgent calls from the ukrainian president volodymyr here's zelenskyy, who says said over the last several weeks that ukraine could lose this war if american funding doesn't continue, you hear president biden in the statement saying he wants to be clear. congress's work isn't finished. he says, it's time to get this done. but fredricka, the house is now out for two more weeks for their easter recess, and it's still very unclear how that you ukraine funding will be passed. but certainly a top priority for president biden after this funding deal is secured, right? >> still lots in the air. all right. kevin liptak, thanks so much. all right. still the com i will take you lied to buckingham palace with more on the princess of wales announcement that she has been diagnosed with cancer and is in the early stages of treatment stay with us >> vegas the story of sin city

medical team therefore advised that i should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy. and i am now in the early stages of that treatment and headlines on the royal family now shifting from bizarre conspiracy theories over kate's absence, two messages of reassurance and support she was expected to return to official duties after easter, but will now wait until she has been cleared by her medical team. cnn anchor and royal correspondent max foster joining me now from outside buckingham palace max, can you tell us how bold of a move this was on kate's part to go in front of the camera about her deeply personal issue. >> i think it was a huge move, obviously, it's deeply personal. it'd be difficult for anyone wouldn't it going out to the world knowing this video is gonna be played out live. well it was recorded, but it was released at one point, then went out across the whole world so i think that'll be difficult for anyone. but having worked with her for some time, i know

how i'm nervous. she gets in front of a camera and just going in front of crowds and engagements is a very long process for her and speaking in front of a camera extremely difficult. indeed. so it was very we polled. i think what's interesting, it hasn't been 24 hours since that was released. but the change in tone here in the uk and across the mean media has been quite extraordinary. if we look at some of the front pages of the newspapers, they are all fully united behind the princess. and indeed the monarchy paying now is the time to start respecting her privacy there have been so many conspiracy theories, so much gossip around this, so much rumor a genuine concern about how she was whilst we didn't see her, but she's fully explained why she was out of the public eye. what happens. and people are really sympathetic to that. they'd been laying flowers in windsor. we don't know if they're in windsor at the moment. they were yesterday. we're not being told at this point where their family is at all. but this is

the view of some of the people that we met in windsor i think there was a little conspiracies and rumors and whatnot, which was horrible i think now let's come out, just been forced to say it was maybe she shouldn't have had let's be but yeah, it really sad. i had this experience at my own father, so i know how it fails i wish her best of luck and hope. she recovers well soon they're going through something so private and hard. and the public eye on it, it was really tough to me list. yeah. she's got young kids right yeah. she's a human being. i thought was quite upsetting. hopefully now, they can get better at privacy. she peels >> so after the shock of the announcement, verjee care, i think that that is now that, a binding views. certainly what i've been hearing at buckingham palace in london as well yeah i mean i think people have all corners have expressed their surprise, but then they really admire her candor and her >> composure and how she is

fred pleitgen, is monitoring developments vince from berlin. fred, we've learned russia has detained 11 suspects for ties to the attack, including for that russia says are directly responsible. what more doing now? >> hi there fredreka, one of the things that the russians are not saying so far is what the us has been saying. and that is the us believes that they are part of isis. of course, there is a claim from isis, a claim responsibility that the us has. it has no reason to doubt, but the russians at this point are not saying that these attackers were from isis, but you're absolutely correct. the russians are saying that they have detained 11 individuals among them, for whom they say were the actual shooters who went inside the crocus city hall outside of moscow. and the place called cross know gore's. and then started shooting people at point blank, they say seven other people we're possibly people who helped the attackers. now, key is something that we've heard from the russians just in the past couple of minutes, is they say none of the people that they've detained are actually russian citizens. in fact,

russian state media just had on it and aired what it purports to be some sort of confession from one of the possible attackers where he's ticket claims that he did all of this for monday and that he didn't know who the contact people actually were who told him to go inside that mall and shoot the place up it's impossible to independently verify all that and whether or not this was all made under duress by this person, but that's who the russian say they have in custody right now. and what's also key about all this is that vladimir putin, the russian president, has come out and seems to be trying to establish some sort of link to ukraine. he said the attackers, after conducting the attack tried to make their way to ukraine in a getaway car and were stopped in the bryansk region. he also spoke about a window allegedly being open to ukraine, which obviously indicates that the russians believed that ukrainian state authorities might be involved all in all this. the ukrainians, for their part, absolutely denying and say they have no involvement

whatsoever. fredricka. all right. fred pleitgen. thanks so much coming up the attorney general in new york, taking steps to possibly seize donald trump's assets if he can't find the money to post bond in his civil fraud case in new york this is the big dam time to chains that do >> every parent knows when it's time to go into protect mode >> adding lysol >> laundry sanitizer kills 99.9% of illness causing bacteria detergent, leave behind plaintiffs good sanitized is better >> you know, if you are cashback and you could earn on everything which is one car chase freedom and limited because all you're off the rack or grabbed fracking, you catch back in cash, back on flap

>> back, former president donald trump is now just two days away from the deadline to post nearly half 1 billion bond in his new york civil fraud trial well, case rather. this week, trump the claim that he has nearly 500 million in cash to cover the sum, but his lawyer has since clarified that, saying he doesn't actually have that much money on hand. trump's lawyers argue it's nearly impossible to get the amount needed for bond and new york's attorney general let's now taking steps to possibly c's trump assets and properties if he can't pay up the cash crunch uncertainty is now raising questions about the future of his business empire and how it might impact his campaign for president joining us right now to discuss this is david swirled like k is a senior staff editor for the new york times opinion. great to see you so this is interesting, david, because the president, especially on the campaign trail, likes declare that he's a victim if the attorney

general is successful in seizing property, whether it be his bank asset or his properties in real estate, will be able to kinda turn this around in his favor to say, see, here i am a victim again great to see you too, fred, look, president trump is a wealthy man, but he's not an elon musk or a jeff bezos or a robert smith. he's working in millions, not billions. so over the course of the last few days, he's tried to do something that's very difficult, which is to cry rich in, cry, poor at the same time, he and his attorneys haven't been able to secure a bond for this. almost half billion-dollar judgment. and at the same time, he wants to portray himself as someone who has the money. so we went on truth social yesterday saying he had almost $500 million this, is a political witch hunt. so that basically the judgment is all about draining his coffers so that he can't run for president. it's a real

pile up of contradictions. so what the president is doing here is trying to beat the clock find a way to get a bond or get to this appeal on this case because like his criminal trials, fred, he's trying to raise two election day because if he gets to election day, you can make all of this when key point, all of this go away. if he loses, he probably can't make any of it it's all a big mine game though, right? i mean, because if trump doesn't get the money, they half-billion dollars by monday and these seizures do start taking place. it's also a a real stab at his reputation, his reputation that he is so uber wealthy that he can afford it. i mean, he said on his truth set, central truth, social rather than he's got 500 million in cash only for his attorneys to try and clarify that. so the bottom line is,

he's being made out to be a liar. so how does that hurt his brand? how does that hurt him on the campaign trail? >> well, this definitely hurts his brand, right? he came out in 2016 when he one portraying himself as this guy who's sitting on piles of money like scrooge mick gregg, and it turns out, yeah, he's rich, but he's not that rich. and so it's a blow to his ego. it's a below to his political persona i want to as a guy who can just spin gold out of nothing on the other hand, fred i don't think we're going to see seizures next week. if he can't come up with a bond, i think that the new york attorney general's office has played this pretty well so far, and they're going to continue to be patient and see this out. the other thing that's going on in the background is that at trump media, which owns truth social, is about to merge digital world acquisition, which is a fund that's going to merge with trump media and then go public.

trump stands to make potentially at least on paper, billions of dollars. the question is, will this money accrued to him? >> for >> he winds up having to start losing assets as a result of seizures from the civil fraud, right. >> i mean, that is all astounding. however, i read that it might be six months before he would actually have his hands potentially on any of that liquid that would come from that kind of acquisition meantime when reportedly trump is in panic mode, what do you envision that to be? i mean, is he on the phone reaching out to all the wealthy people that he can think of asking them to give some money i mean, is he looking at his fundraising, trying to figure out how can he divert some of the fundraising money that has gone toward paying for his lawyers to perhaps now pay for this kind of penalty. what do you envision is happening this weekend? >> yeah for the foreign

president, this is a financials scramble, right? he's got this hard bond issue to deal with this judgment against him. he needs to put up a bar, get a bond before he can appeal. he doesn't want to lose his real estate assets. he doesn't want to write a check. and so this is a problem, but you've got to understand right? that there are a lot of people who have this money, who've loaned him money before in the past. and now they're looking at it and they're saying, well, do we really want to get involved with real estate assets in new york? we can't just move trump park or trump tower like you can move a three-bedroom house in the suburbs, right? so that's number one on the political side, fred, i don't think this is that of a problem for former president trump. he's up in the polls and a lot of swing states, president biden is down in approval rating somewhere above or below the 40% mark. and this is basically a pickup them in terms of who's going to win in november. i think president trump likes where he is politically. the question is,

can he weather this storm in this new york case, right? >> and you heard the ag who says you're not paying his bills is what got into this predicament in the first place. and now not paying this penalty is not going to help him at all all right. >> david's word like, thanks so much >> thanks, fred >> all right. coming up next, the new funding bill that averts a us government shutdown, including it's more than $400 for additional border patrol agents, but does not add funding for the border wall to the border state of arizona next check >> we hear nothing. >> the space shuttle accidents usually not one thing. it's a series of events is that part of the wing coming apart? >> space shuttle columbia. he final flight from your sunday, april 7 at nine on cnn. meet the traveling trio the thrill seeker, the soul searcher, and it's the explorer, each helping to protect their money with teeth last card isn't

about a half of those some for jackpots were hit. so that really is quite telling terms of the numbers here. but then to answer that earlier question of why there are multiple factors in all of this as he taken all the numbers of what we've seen in the last ten years, there one of them is both major lotteries, mega millions and powerball. they basically tweak the rules last in the last decade, making it even harder to win. so every time that there's no winner, that amount girls over gets even larger. and because of that, those jackpots continued rise i'll also rising interest rates may have something to do with it. they actually affect the advertise jackpot, which are actually based on annuities. a reminder that any winter stay there have the option either taking the lump sum in this case, which is $1.1 billion, right now, you get about after that, or the payments over several years. and then finally, more people are playing nerdwallet finding that when a jackpot xc it's $1 billion. people who usually don't like to play the lotto will basically fill the hat in

the ring and will by themselves at least one ticket. so more people playing, more money going into this jackpot. and that is one of your answers here. but ultimately fred, let's, let's, let's be real, regardless of who's playing, the chances are extraordinarily slim that you would actually come out the winner one and over 300 million. >> now, >> that jackpot on tuesday for me though, the chances of winning at least two box one it's funded dream, it's $102 investment. i mean, don't go crazy and by too many because i mean like i said, the chances. >> but hey, for $2, it's kinda funded during a bit. all right. >> i'm with you. i think i have to go get a ticket today. >> let's do it. all right. followed sandoval. thanks so much. >> all right. she was a top-secret cia operative until the us government blew her cover. >> but >> why valerie plane tells jake tapper her theory on united states of scandal on sunday night 09:00, right here on cnn

me. >> all right. so when you hear that this bill has been signed and of which some 495 million for additional border patrol agents. there's that allocation. what does that mean for you and your organization? >> as any bill that goes through congress and through, i feel like schoolhouse rock with its bill right >> we're looking at essentially >> that funding going to border patrol as well, shelters like ours who are supporting asylum seekers as are released in our communities so to me it means an opportunity to prevent street releases in communities like tucson who has never seen releases of children and families in our city streets as well. other communities like nogales and douglas and other border areas so what kind of federal assistance does your organization receive >> the federal assistance that we've been receding since 2019 under the trump administration has been going to make sure that we're able to shelter this item secrets as they're released providing the medical

services at intake, travel planning, and help them to be able to move forward to their family members across the united states. usually people stay about six hours to 72 hours, but some folks, like all of us, needing additional support might stay a little longer. >> are you able to keep up with the demand? >> tucson we've been really fortunate since i've been here are since cost of liters since 2014 to not have street releases and we've seen evan flows the last 78 months. we've been the busiest area on the border and we've been able to adapt to be able to shelter anywhere from 600 people a day to upwards to 1,800 people a day. but it's always in relation yeah. i mean, that's pretty >> significant how are you able to meet everyone's needs, whether it be as you just expressed, shelter, food, medical care that has been a lot of adapting with our fortunately, our counties, city and state partners to be able to facilitate those support for the families and >> not having our communities deal with the ramifications of people needing those services

released in tucson streets or community streets? but with the funding that we've gotten in the past, we've been able to adjust to adapt, but right now we're facing a short haul as we're looking at running out like funding on april 1 what will happen if you don't receive any more funding >> that will essentially go to our donations purely from our community partners and national ngos and ingos. so right now i'm looking at, and i'm standing in are all hello, welcome center, which will be the only space will operate out of we're are capacity is about 140 people. so we're looking at children under the age of three and their parents being street released in tucson, not being able to provide the medical care for folks, not being able to connect people to their sponsors and having them facing the opportunity or the situation that people might be trafficked or extortion occurring. >> are you preparing yourself for not receiving any more federal funding after april 1? >> yes. i actually spent the

last two hours with our amazing volunteer team who's been with me when we were all purely dot the volunteer base since 2020 and it's walking through the space, making sure we can meet the capacity and see how we can improve plan for the worst hope, for the best though we are very much limited on servicing those 140, which is just tearing my part of part thinking about kids under the age of three being released on the streets and being taken advantage of them and their parents and then help people understand why would you not be receiving additional funding after april 1st? is it all predicated on this stopgap measure >> it's definitely predicated on the stopgap, but as we receive the funding, the last tranche of funding last year, we projected to have about 8 million and we were seeing on average 750 people per day was our plan. but as i said, we became one of the busiest areas of the border as others have decreased so we went through the funding much faster than that and we started seeing also street releases and rural

communities like nogales an hour south of us next to the border and douglas, an hour-and-a-half east of us. so having those releases that add additional cost of transportation. so i'm hoping that there's a little bit more fluidity on the funding that we get in this next tranche so we're able to further adapt as we've done, an amazing job as a community to support families. >> all right. at diego opinion, lopez, executive director of cost, sadly, tez they are in tucson, arizona. thanks so much. >> thank you. take care >> cnn breaking news all right. >> hello again, everyone. thank you so much for joining me. i'm fredricka whitfield and let's start with breaking news out of russia a short time ago, state media, they're published up, reported fashion from one of the men around
