Ukrainian infantry reverses Russian gains near Lyman
Original: donetsk
Ukrainian forces have pushed back Russian positions in the Donetsk region near Lyman, according to reporting by Euromaidan Press. The outlet says armored assaults are far from obsolete: while unmanned robots drew attention, it was Ukrainian infantry riding armored trucks that reversed a year of Russian territorial gains in the area. The fighting underscores that Donetsk remains one of the war's most contested fronts.
Why now: Ukraine's counterattack near Lyman shows a shift in battlefield momentum in the Donetsk region.
