Ukraine said on Tuesday its troops had entered the strategic southeastern village of Robotyne, a potentially significant advance in its counteroffensive against Russian forces.
Deputy Defence Minister Hanna Maliar said on the Telegram messaging app that Ukrainian soldiers were organising the evacuation of civilians after entering Robotyne but were still coming under fire from Russian forces.
"Our soldiers in the village of Robotyne," General Oleksandr Tarnavskyi, commander of Ukrainian forces in the south, wrote on Telegram under a picture of a soldier in a tank.
Robotyne is 10 km (six miles) south of the frontline town of Orikhiv in the Zaporizhzhia region on an important road towards Tokmak, a Russian-occupied road and rail hub.
Tokmak's capture would be a milestone as Ukrainian troops press southwards towards the Sea of Azov, a military push intended to split Russian occupying forces.

They have liberated a village! They are halfway to Moscow.
I watched the video and didn’t see much of the strategic village. I did see a small bunch of soldiers with some elderly women in the woods though. Worst sex party ever.
Right, its not noteworthy, that 77 weeks later, russia with the #2 military in the world, is playing defense against a Ukrainian counter-offensive. Okay
Do you think these neocons, who have started wars killing hundreds of thousand or millions in losing ventures Afghanistan, Iraq, Serbia, Syria, Libya... etc, care one wit about the men, women and children dying in these ventures?
This is a level of evilness that is almost impossible to comprehend.
the target should be the railyard at Tokmak
Oh good, 100 billion+ got us another one of their cow-towns.
Maybe they can blow some more pot-holes in the Crimea bridge - more funds on the way.
And retards here with no skin in the game approve.
Both sides are desperately fighting to seize open land. There is an insatiable need for cemeteries.
Please ask your deep-state bosses to show a little more respect to FReepers.
We’re getting their C-grade propaganda.
The UA must take out the Orc artillery before they can move forward. To that end, the UA could go east of Robotnye and force the Orc artillery to split its fire, but more importantly that would expose it’s positions to UA counter-battery radars and so be taken out.
The the UA can move forward and take the rest of the town on the way to Tomak, if that is the direction they want to go.
Let’s take all the military aged men entering our country illegally and fly them over to help Ukraine.
Ukraine is dumb, just like Biden, why do people vote for fools..unless they are foolish themselves. There is no military solution for Ukraine.
They found the weak spot in the Russian lines and are hammering through.
Please ask your deep-state bosses to show a little more respect to FReepers.
Southeastern village? That's makes it sound like it's in the Donbas, which it isn't. It's in Zaporizhzhia
What - aren’t you proud of your work?
