I hope the little one in the middle is alright. (It does not seem likely)
The other one seems to be nursing and mom is cleaning up her tail.

Very much, it is very a pity. One kitten has possibly died. It does not submit life signs some hours.

I was watching Darla last night - it was clear that the birth was imminent.
Sad to see the dead cub this morning, but the living cub is making enough noise for two!

Copy-paste from homepage of Tallinn Zoo
Today, in the night of 14 April, Darla gave birth to two cubs. The first was born around 2 o´clock, but unfortunately it was dead. The second was born after 4 o´clock and seems to be in good condition.
People who have watched the Amur leopard nest via webcam http://www.digisilm.ee/loomad/amur/pesakaamera.html , are worried about what will happen with the dead cub and wonder if it can be removed from the nest. As it is known that for some time after giving birth the mother cannot be disturbed, lest she make harm to her living cub, we cannot do anything but watch via webcam what will happen (we cannot exclude the possibility that the mother will eat her stillborn cub).
Thank god the second cub is ok and s/he is so very cute

How sad that the first cub did not survive! 
The one who lived will get double milk though, so it should grow well.

Hello!
Last Saturday Zoo workers cleaned the nest.
There are the news on Tallinn Zoo site - first cub was male, 730 g. The gender of other cub they will check next month.
