A nuclear scientist from Texas, who's credited with designing sensitive technology found in dozens of laser-guided weapons systems used by the U.S. military, was rescued from war-torn Ukraine. Members of the non-profit rescue organization, Project DYNAMO extracted John Spor from Russian-occupied territory deep in the country. Spor, was living in Mariupol, Ukraine, when the city was attacked and occupied by invading Russian forces in February. Following the siege and unrelenting brutal artillery and missile attacks, he fled his home and went into hiding. Chechen-Russian forces ransacked his home and hunted Spor for months, according to a spokesman for the organization.
