Escaping from hell on earth

Ukrainians are finally finding a way out of that steel plant in Mariupol. One of the evacuees described the situation as "two months of darkness. We did not see any sunlight." The trek out of captivity comes after another turbulent, restless night. A Ukrainian commander inside says constant shelling resumed the instant evacuations were done for the day. Meanwhile, Nancy Pelosi is in Poland following her surprise a visit to Kyiv, where she met with Ukraine's president. When she returns to the US, Congress will take up a massive request for $33 billion in new money to help Ukraine. Our coverage today begins with a live report from CNN's Scott McLean in Lviv.
