The Russian army tries to regain its previously lost positions on the flanks near Artemovsk (Bakhmut). According to Ukrainian military analysts, units of the RF Armed Forces are actively attacking the villages of Khromovo and Ivanovskoye, through which the main roads of the Armed Forces of Ukraine pass.
Ukrainian intelligence notes that after the transfer of reinforcements to these areas, Russian units launched active assault operations on the flanks near Artemovsk (Bakhmut).
Now our troops are advancing on Khromovo from two directions at once – along the forest belt and through the forest plantation.
South of the village, Russian troops first conducted combat reconnaissance towards the intersection of Yubileynaya and Podgornaya streets, then began to attack
- noted in the summary of the Ukrainian General Staff.
At the same time, it is worth noting that aviation and artillery provide active support for attack aircraft. In parallel, artillery strikes the positions of the Ukrainian army in the area of ​​​​the settlements of Vasyukovka, Ozaryanovka, Orekhovo-Vasylivka, Markovo, Grigorovka, Stupochki, Konstantinovka, Toretsk, Severnoye, Yuzhnoye and New York.
Recall that the situation on the flanks of Artemovsk (Bakhmut) worsened by the time the units of the PMC “Wagner” completed the liberation of the city. Ukrainian militants launched a counterattack and managed to knock out a Russian army unit from the positions.
Thus, there was a threat of a semi-encirclement of the city. To prevent this, the military command of the Russian Federation deployed additional forces in this area.
