We talk about rook endgames, specifically the Vancura Defense, an important method for the defender to secure the draw in the endgame rook and a or h-pawn against rook. An important detail is here that the pawn has not yet advanced to the seventh rank. The defender has to stop the attacker's king from reaching the pawn and using it as a shield. Therefore, at the right time, the defender needs to switch the rook from attacking the pawn from behind to attacking the pawn from the side. This does not allow the attacker's king to escape the checks. Please let me know if you have any questions about this method :)
