  In the last years the research on GRB host galaxies has proceeded to more
detailed studies both using high resolution afterglow spectroscopy and
spatially resolved spectra of nearby hosts. High resolution spectra give a
detailed picture of the kinematic properties of matter along the line-of-sight
in the host. Two afterglow spectra show clear indications for outflows from
their host, namely GRB 030329 and GRB 060206, derived from the position of
absorption and host emission lines, nonvariability of Mg I and the radiation
field calculated from fine-structure line detections. In nearby GRB hosts it is
possible to resolve the actual GRB site. GRB 060505, a SN-less GRB, originated
in a relatively metal poor, star forming region with similar properties as
other long-duration hosts. A similar conclusion is reached for the site of GRB
980425/SN 1998bw.
