Eastern side Fighting continues around Fedora Maksymenka street and the construction materials plant.
The situation in Soledar is difficult.
Ukrainian forces conduct defensive actions which cause certain losses to brave defenders while inflicting massive losses on Russian forces.
I won’t comment on the operational situation.
Some clarification on the situation in Soledar:
The claims of encirclement of large amounts of Ukrainian forces are untrue.
The claims of large gains in and around the town are true.
Certain things cannot be talked about but will come to light soon with time.
I would also like to add that despite the claims that the Wagner photos in the salt mine are falsified it is unlikely.
Heavy fighting has been raging in the area for 2 days now, sometimes positions can become untenable to hold.

Secondly towards eastern outskirts where fights take place on certain streets.
Bakhmut Frontline Situation: PT3
Russian forces are focusing mainly on attacking Bakhmut from the south eastern side launching assaults at the Fedora Maksymenka street which now lies as a grey zone.
Ukrainian defenders are well dug in and the fighting is tough.
The destruction of the Russian Armed Forces combat capabilities is happening real time in Ukraine.
Not to mention the massive losses to special forces and paratrooper brigades.
The infamous Russian spetsnaz is taking considerable losses in Ukraine due to Russian command using them in some instances as a frontal force instead of sabotage and reconnaissance.
However these units should not be underestimated and still are very deadly.
Ukrainian Special Forces on the other hand are being used in an extremely effective fashion.
