will likely hear will be as a supreme court justice, david. >> rachel scott leading us off tonight. rachel, thank you. we turn now to the war in ukraine and what our team has now witnessed. the atrocities uncovered, and the new action tonight to isolate russia because of those very images now being seen by the world. the united nations tonight with an historic move, voting to suspend russia from the u.n. human rights could be sill, after after the horrors revealed in bucha and other ukrainian towns after the russians left. the damage still being assessed. workers removing mines. our james longman is there with the survivors who show him where loved ones were killed, where they were living for weeks, underground in basements. the russians in their city above. and only now fully realizing the horror they inflicted. james longman from ukraine again tonight. >> reporter: tonight, as russia is voted off the u.n.'s human rights council, new horrifying scenes like these show why. this apartment block in bucha took a direct hit. bohdan wants to show us what it

did to his friend on the eighth floor. look, it's completely destroyed in here. and that is the remains of his friend, his charred remains. i'm looking at his bones and his body here, just lying on the floor. "i want the whole world to know the truth about what's happening here," bodhan says. "i only blame the russian military for this." every street has a story. serhiy is standing just feet from where his brother dima died. shot, he says, by russian troops. "they enforced a curfew between 5:00 p.m. and 9:00 a.m." he says. dima went out for a cigarette, so they killed him. he takes us down to the basement, where his neighbors all took shelter. just imagine the horror this man has been through and he's kind of apologetic for the state of this cellar. but this is where they had to live. the building's residents -- some is 20 people -- lived here, forced below ground for a month.

the conditions, subhuman. hello. he takes us to meet his mother, mariya. every mention of her dead son makes her cry. "we had to collect his body. how can you bear it, survive it?" she says. she wants to show us pictures. these people had lives, they had families, they had happiness. and these are the memories of that. i think this woman's life is now never going to be the same. but how to stop all this? nato members met in brussels today to discuss more arms for ukraine and penalties for russia. >> the sickening images and accounts coming out of bucha and other parts of ukraine have only strengthened our collective resolve and unity. >> reporter: european nations approved new russian sanctions, including an embargo on coal imports. but ukraine's foreign minister said more was needed. >> my agenda is very simple. it had only three items on it. it's weapons, weapons, and weapons. >> reporter: to speed up the delivery of military equipment, the u.s. senate voted to

reinstall the "lend-lease" program. that's the first time it's been used since the second world war. it gives president biden more authority to provide ukraine with weapons, basically free of charge, delaying any payment until later. although the house must still pass the bill. back in ukraine, to his brother's grave. he had to dig it himself. in ukraine, candy is traditionally left to allow the dead a "sweeter passing." this is all they had for dima. >> and james, russia was voted off the u.n. human rights council today. and germany has interrepresented russian radio? >> reporter: that's right, germany's foreign intelligence agency has intercepted messages in which russian forces discussed killings of civilians there in bucha. they say these messages show that abuses were not isolated or

random acts, but part of russia's routine of war. david? >> perhaps further proof being seen by the world tonight. james, thank you. back here at home now, and we're learning more about a secret service scandal. two men arrested, they're accused of posing as homeland security officials. authorities believe duping secret service agents, giving lavish gifts to those agents. several agents, including one that worked on the first lady's security detail. so tonight here, what the fbi says it has now found. the suspects' weapons, equipment, the information they'd gathere. and tonight, the questions. what was their motive, who funded the operation? and how did secret service agents fall for this? here's martha raddatz. >> reporter: tonight, growing national security concerns after the arrest of two men for allegedly impersonating federal homeland security agents. and the suspension of four secret service agents after accusations they accepted extravagant gifts and housing from the men, including an agent assigned to protect the first family.

investigators say arian taherzadeh and haider ali operated out of this d.c. apartment building where fbi agents were seen gathering evidence. federal prosecutors today reporting a search of their residences and cars uncovered weapons, ammunition, body armor, gas masks, a drone, and a binder with a list of every resident in the apartment complex. the government says haider ali claimed to have a "connection to the isi, the pakistani intelligence service," and that agents found visas showing a history of travel to pakistan and iran. today, residents from that building shaken. >> it's scary, like, it's my place of living. i just came home and then there's just fbi agents. i'm like, what's going on? >> reporter: for more than two years, the men allegedly lavished the secret service agents with expensive gifts like free apartments worth $3,000 a month, iphones, a flat screen

tv, surveillance systems, and a drone. taherzadeh is accused of offering to buy a $2,000 assault rifle for a member of the first lady's protective detail. our mary bruce today pressing the white house. >> a service agent from the first lady's detail was placed on administrative leave after they associated with and were provided gifts from two men who were pretending to be homeland security investigation agents. is the president aware of this?- how concerned are they? >> i don't have any comment from here. i would point you to the secret service and others investigating. >> do you have any further guidance on what these two men for after? >> it's being investigated. i would point you to the proper agencies. >> reporter: the suspects allegedly posed as "special police" agents from the dhs investigating january 6th, and were equipped with tactical gear, official-looking badges, and weapons. >> what's more concerning to me is where did these individuals obtain all this

gear, identification? where did they get all this stuff to be able to create this false persona? >> yeah, this was really something when it first broke overnight. martha raddatz with us now. and i know prosecutors believe these men were able to dupe members of the secret service. what do we know about these suspects, their funding, their motive? >> reporter: david, that's the big mystery. this was clearly well funded, despite the fact the men said they couldn't afford an attorney. one saying today he had no money. so, we don't know yet whether someone else or some other country was behind this, nor do we know what they may have been after. david? >> all right, martha raddatz with us tonight. martha, thank you. we're going to turn now to the pandemic. new cases rising in half the country. the omicron subvariant now the dominant strain. 72% of all cases nationwide. and tonight, house speaker nancy pelosi has tested positive for the virus. her office saying the 82-year-old house speaker got her second booster weeks ago and remains asymptomatic tonight. but this evening, questions also about the president. the speaker was with president
