Rescuers work in the debris of the damaged dam of Sayano-Shushenskaya hydroelectric power station near Siberian village of Cheryomushki, about 520 km (323 miles) south of Krasnoyarsk, August 20, 2009. Fourteen people were killed on Monday and up to 60 were missing after a turbine room flooded at the Sayano-Shushenskaya power station, Russia's largest hydro-power station, forcing steel and aluminium plants in Siberia to turn to emergency power.
