Even though Ukraine’s forces are facing trenches and minefields in their so-called counteroffensive, a capture of Robotyne shows it can puncture Russian defences.
The Ukrainian military said last week that its forces had raised the national flag in the strategic settlement, but were still carrying out mopping-up operations.

Villagers of Robotyne greeted Ukrainian soldiers with kisses and practically fell at their feet after the Russian occupation was driven out of part of the town.
In a video published by the Ukrainian military, a woman is seen kissing a Ukrainian soldier and several evacuated residents talking on the phone with loved ones.
