Russian troops occupy building in Robotyne – allegedly using “suicide squads”. Ukraine recaptured the strategically important location in southern Ukraine in August.
The village's location is strategically important - it is located ten kilometers south of the frontline town of Orikhiv, on a key road towards Tokmak, a Russian-occupied road and rail transport hub. The British Ministry of Defense suspects that Russia intends to disperse Ukrainian troops with the attacks on various sectors of the front. The situation in the Robotyne area remains tense.
