Ukraine's Dam Damages Demand Accountability Amidst Intensifying Conflict.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky hinted at an early "result" in the country's counteroffensive against Russian-backed separatists in the eastern Donetsk region. Ukrainian troops have intensified strikes in the southeast armed with Western weapons and trained in NATO tactics. Meanwhile, shelling has intensified after dark in the region, which has caused flooding in nearby Kherson city. The cause of the catastrophe remains unclear, with Ukraine and Russia blaming each other.
