Shelling in east Ukraine, Russia nuclear drill raise tension

KYIV, UKRAINE (AP) – Hundreds of artillery shells exploded along the contact line between Ukrainian soldiers and Russia-backed separatists, and thousands of people evacuated eastern Ukraine, further increasing fears yesterday that the volatile region could spark a Russian invasion.
