Reports from Ukraine say fierce fighting is raging in the south of the country. Some western officials are calling it a new 'major push' by the Ukrainian army.

Kyiv's deputy defense minister said earlier this week that Ukrainian troops are advancing toward the city of Melitopol near the Sea of Azov – without saying how far. Fighting has been reported near the village of Robotyne which Russian forces have been occupying. Russia has reported a major uptick of Ukrainian operations in the region south of the city of Zaporizhzhia.

Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke of the latest fighting on the sidelines of the Russia-Africa summit.

For more, we talk to Marina Miron, a military analyst at King's College London.
