#NewsMap Visual confirmation of what I estimated before: The Ukrainian “counteroffensive” near Ivanivkse cleared the forest near the T0504 of Wagner mercenaries, so they wouldn't cut and use the road to Bakhmut. That was it.

#NewsMap Russian invasion forces once again got a foothold in eastern Bakhmut's residential areas, where the Ukrainian army is pounding them with heavy artillery.

#NewsMap Good news from southern #Bakhmut. Russian invasion forces were driven out of the city and back to Opytne. Ukrainian BMP-2 can be seen firing t their positions.

As always, the Ukrainian general staff did not acknowledge losing the town. However, it disappeared from today's daily report, indirectly confirming the loss. Berkhivka to its S-W remained in the report. Wagner troops claim, they are trying to storm the village.

More footage from the town. I'ld like to be a mouse in the Ukrainian army's hq. Would be extremely interested why the left the town without a fight and despite the well-defendable area. Hardly any destruction visible in the RT footage.

Interesting . Looked like ru didn’t have any artillery support / anti tank weapons there

Agreed! And any shoulder-borne anti-tank weapons.

@ElkeHollings For some reason I have George C Scott’s voice in my head screaming “You magnificent bastard! I read your book!!”

Und wem interessiert das ?

There cannot be any strong presence if tanks can go like this. No counterfire, no artillery, nothing. Maybe whole video is made for show purposes.
