The war in Ukraine continues on Monday, October 3. Journalist Agnès Vahramian reports live from Kramatorsk (Ukraine). According to her, the capture of Lyman, a town in eastern Ukraine, by Ukrainian forces could be a turning point in the war. Indeed, it is the first city taken over after being declared Russian during the annexation by Vladimir Putin. “It’s an affront to Moscow, enough to demobilize its troops”, assures the journalist. It also shows that “the military dynamic is on the Ukrainian side”.

The fighting moves very quickly towards the East. Agnès Vahramian asks: “Will the Russian Front Collapse?” The recapture of the town of Lyman also shows that the Ukrainians are capable of fighting head-on. In the south, near Kherson (Ukraine), they recaptured 70 kilometers of their territory in a week.
