The Armed Forces did not lose a single position under Bakhmut.
During the week, Bakhmut and events related to him remained the leading topic in Russian telegram channels and mass media, as reported Hanna Malyar, Deputy Minister of Defensein his Telegram channel.
An analysis of the enemy’s propaganda messages shows that this city is extremely important for the enemy. Almost sacred.
The Russians praise themselves and talk about their alleged success and invent stories about the military command of Ukraine.
Hanna Malyar assures that the enemy gives false information about the lack of weapons, which probably aims to justify the real situation.
“And the real situation during the week is such that, despite the presence of weapons:
— the enemy failed to realize his plans;
— the enemy suffered great losses of manpower;
— our defenders advanced 2 km in the direction of Bakhmut;
— we did not lose a single position in Bakhmut this week.”
By the way, a few days earlier, the commander of the eastern direction of the front, Colonel-General Oleksandr Syrskyitold about the two-kilometer advance of the Defense Forces and confusion in the ranks of the enemy.
