#1 According to Denys Davydov (Youtube) some Russian sites reporting the Russians have bugged out of Robotyne.

#3 Most of Davydov's stuff is reciting Deep State Map updates. He gets a bit dramatic if there is a setback but presents his info well.

I also like Reporting from Ukraine. While very pro-Ukraine, it is concise, analytical and sometimes has interesting pieces of info before other channels.

#4 ^^^ One other group I follow daily is a Ukrainian fighting unit on the ground called the Terra Unit. They are drone operators supporting Ukrainian assault teams who are assaulting Russian trenches along the front and behind front lines deep in Russian held oblasts. This unit is partially financed by individuals living in Western Countries that follow the Terra Unit's postings.

#6 Deepstate map, which is usually a couple days behind as they geolocate and verfiy, has the Robotyne as full conflicted and not in Russian hands.

#7 They've been battling it out in Robotyne all summer. Robotyne is no longer a town, no one lives there, it is a debris field anymore.

UKR gets a push, Russians fallback and let loose an artillery barrage and push back in. UKR pulls back, licks their wounds, gets reinforcements and do it again.

UKR has not shown they can hold re-captured territory for any amount of time so far.

#8 UKR has not shown they can hold re-captured territory for any amount of time so far.

There are multiple maps that show that statement as completely false.
