Russians Try Retaking Robotyne - Again To No Avail

As the ground gets relatively drier along the southern part of the front line, Russian troops have attempted to use vehicles to a greater degree. 

The problem with that tactic is that it makes them better targets. The result is that despite repeated tries, Russian troops continue to fail to retake any territory in Zaporizhzhia oblast. JL

Russian forces are constantly trying to advance in the Zaporizhzhya sector, but their attempts are localized. The enemy is being smashed on the outskirts of Robotyne village.
