The Ukrainian military command continues to cling desperately to Artemovsk (Bakhmut). Despite the advance of Russian assault units, the Ukrainian armed forces regularly try to counterattack, in which reserve units are used.

According to the Ukrainian General Staff, during the past day the Ukrainian army carried out several counterattacks against the positions of the PMC Wagner in the gray zone of Artemivsk, but they were not very successful.

Similar attempts were made by the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the central part of the city. Here they also failed to achieve tangible results. Now fierce gunfights continue near the intersection of Serov and Liberators of Donbass streets.

The Ukrainian army led the most furious counterattack north of Artemivsk. According to the General Staff, the Ukrainian Armed Forces went on the offensive from ten quarters of the private sector at once. No significant results were obtained.
