"Ukraine-Russia tensions escalate with evacuations and engineering efforts near nuclear plant"

Families with children and elderly people are being evacuated from areas in southern Ukraine held by Russia due to increased shelling from the Ukrainian side. The evacuation includes the town of Enerhodar, where the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant is located. A Russian official has warned that record-high water levels could overwhelm a major dam in southern Ukraine and damage parts of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power station. The situation at the plant has been a cause for concern for several months due to near-constant shelling in its vicinity, which Kyiv and Moscow blame on each other.
