A Russian drone strike on Ranok's warehouse in the northeastern city of Kharkiv on August 1 destroyed about 8 million books, the biggest blow yet to Ukraine's publishing industry during ‌the four-year-old war.

Publishers say more than 10 million books have been destroyed in attacks on warehouses in recent months, threatening an industry that initially benefited from rising demand for Ukrainian-language literature at the start of the conflict.

"This was a deliberately planned attack against the book warehouse," said Viktor Kruhlov, director of Ranok, one of Ukraine's largest children's publishers, whose company prints around one-third of the textbooks used in Ukrainian schools.

From the killer shark of "Jaws" to the tornado-tossed predators of the "Sharknado" movies, films long have portrayed sharks as objects of summer fear. But when a shark cuts through the waters off the US East Coast, it now may be doing more than hunting. It may also be gathering data that helps ‌scientists understand the potential intensity of a hurricane before it makes landfall.
