War in Ukraine: One-third of Ukrainian territory has been mined since Russian invasion
Ukrainian authorities say almost a third of the country has been mined since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion last year, leaving six million people at risk of being killed or injured by land mines.  According to the US-based think-tank Institute for the Study of War, Russian forces are now intensifying their efforts to mine the Robotyne-Verbove area in a bid to block Ukrainian troops on the front lines, away from the Zaporizhzhia region.  Russian military bloggers claim that Russian troops are remining previously cleared areas on the Robotyne-Verbove line, south of Orikhiv, hoping to disrupt the movement of heavy Ukrainian cargo and equipment in the area.  Watch Sasha Vakulina's full report by clicking on the media player above.
