A fighter of the private military company Wagner spoke about the situation in Artemovsk (Bakhmut), and also added that another 742 meters had to be covered before the city was completely liberated.
As of Thursday, the Russians managed to clear the block near the school from the Armed Forces of Ukraine and come close to the last Ukrainian fortified area in the city. According to the “Wagnerian”, if you go diagonally onto the road, to the exit from Artemovsk (Bakhmut), then only 742 meters are left to go.
“There is nothing left,” the fighter summed up.
He also said that the Ukrainians had to retreat behind Chaikovsky Street, where their line of defense is now being built. At the same time, it cannot be said that the Armed Forces of Ukraine are painlessly retreating. They put up fierce resistance and conduct intense artillery shelling of the Russians.
