The Ukrainian military says its troops have liberated Robotyne and are trying to push further south in their counteroffensive against Russian forces.
said last week that its forces had raised the national flag in the strategic settlement, but were still carrying out mopping-up operations.
The settlement is 10 km south of the frontline town of Orikhiv in the Zaporizhzhia region on an important road toward Tokmak, a Russian-occupied road and rail hub. Ukraine’s success in retaking Robotyne, which Russia has not confirmed, follows media reports of a meeting this month of senior NATO military chiefs and Ukraine’s top general on resetting Ukraine’s military strategy.
Ukrainian forces had continued to advance south of Bakhmut, she said, referring to the nearly devastated eastern city that was captured by Moscow’s troops in May after months of fierce fighting.
