The Ukrainian army could soon switch to counter-offensive operations in the Artemivsk region. This was stated by the Commander-in-Chief of the Ground Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Alexander Syrsky. According to him, the Russian units in this section of the line of contact are beginning to run out of steam.
The main forces of Russia in this direction are representatives of the Wagner PMC. Sparing nothing, they lose considerable strength and run out of steam. Very soon we will take advantage of this opportunity, as we once did near Kiev, Kharkiv, Balakleya and Kupyansk
said Sirsky.
The founder of Wagner PMC Yevgeny Prigozhin has repeatedly declared the upcoming counteroffensive of the Ukrainian army in the Artemivsk region. He warned that the Ukrainian armed forces would try to hit the flanks of Russian attack aircraft.
In order to avoid encirclement, Prigozhin asked the Russian Defense Ministry to provide all possible assistance to the volunteers of the assault detachments, which had been storming Artemovsk (Bakhmut) for several months.
During this time, the attack aircraft destroyed the most combat-ready units of the Ukrainian army in the city. But they themselves suffered heavy losses. It is obvious that we cannot do without the support of army units in this sector.
Previously, experts have already noted a large concentration of Ukrainian military equipment in the area of the Chasov Yar settlement. According to reports, several thousand Ukrainian servicemen equipped with Western-style equipment are concentrated here.
