ed a new phase of the battle of

defense lines on the east bank of
the lower Dnieper river.
The Russians covered the re

rubble their great Driieperstrov
dam and power plant, the largest
in - Europe, and indicated they
had exacted a heavy toll of the
nazis before yielding the indus
trial city of Dnieperopetrovsk,
50 miles up the river from the
dam.
Dnieperopetrovsk, with a pop
ulation of more than 500,000
produced a large proportion of
the soviet a cast iron and steel.
' The single important island of
resistance to the Germans and
their allies in the southwestern
Ukraine west of the Dnieper
was Odessa, Russia's largest port
en the Black sea. There red sail
ors . and soldiers, cut off from
help by land, were prepared to
defend the port of more than
600,000 persons to the very end.
Farther north, the red army
battled to save Kiev, capital of
the Ukraine, on the west bank
of the Dnieper.
