After weeks of fighting, Ukrainian forces have broken through Russian defensive lines in the Zaporizhzhia region in the southeast to retake more territory.

On Monday, Kyiv's defense ministry announced it had fully reclaimed the village of Robotyne. South of Robotyne lies the strategic city of Tokmak, a critical railroad junction for the Russian military. Ukraine has been pushing to reach the Sea of Azov, in a grinding effort to cut Russian forces in half and severe the land bridge to Crimea. But Kyiv's advances have been slow as they push through Russia's heavily fortified positions and vast minefields.
Our special correspondent Aya Ibrahim is in Kyiv and tells us more.

And we talkt to Marina Miron of the War Studies department at King’s College London.
