Ukraine advances in several places: “Offensive actions continue!”

Ukraine reports conquests in several places. That reports the German news website n-tv.de. Specifically, progress is said to have been made in Robotyne and around Bakhmut, among others.

Robotyne is back under Ukraine’s control, according to the country’s Deputy Defense Minister Hanna Maljar. Ukrainian fighters have liberated the locality in the Zaporizhzhya region, she said. “Our offensive actions are continuing. Our troops are already moving southeast of Robotyne and south of Mala Tokmachka.

In addition, Maljar states that there is also progress around Bakhmut. There, Ukrainian soldiers are said to have advanced one square kilometer on the southern flank of the surrounded city. At the same time, however, Maljar admits that there are Russian advances on the northern flank. Russia, she says, wants to regain what Ukrainian fighters have captured. She speaks of “very hot fighting.”

This information comes from a party to the conflict and has not yet been independently verified / confirmed. For this reason, the report must be evaluated with reservations. In war, it can be advantageous for parties to make false statements about the course of the conflict in order to strengthen their own position or weaken the position of the opponent.
