KHERSON, Ukraine -- Three days after the destruction of the Nova Kakhovka hydroelectric dam on the Dnieper River in a Russian-occupied area in Ukraine, Russia furiously shelled evacuation points leading out of Kherson amid desperate efforts to save lives. With the capital of the southern Ukrainian province of the same name partially submerged by flooding, rescue teams were dispatched by the Ukrainian military, even to the area under Russian occupation on the east side of the river.
