Acting head of the Donetsk People’s Republic Denis Pushilin said Kiev was transferring additional reserves to Artemovsk (Bakhmut) and there were no orders from Kiev to return the city.
“Artemovsk (Bakhmut) continues to be liberated, units of PMC “Wagner”> are working in several directions. The enemy is transferring, and in many cases is already trying to transfer, additional reserves. There is no order to return the city to the Ukrainian regime. As a result, the death toll of the Ukrainian regime continues to rise,” Pushilin said on Russia 24.
He also said that very soon it will be possible to talk about the actual encirclement of Artemovsk (Bakhmut) (the Ukrainian name is Bakhmut).
