From the information I have, the front line in Bakhmut is stabilizing. It is true, Ukraine rotated troops out. The new troops were unable (and likely not expected) to hold the positions held by the departing troops. As a result, the lines shifted, especially east and southeast. 
But now, it seems the lines are stabilizing. The garbage dump is a key point of fighting, and I have to be clear about this: the landfill is controlled by Russia and being actively reinforced (2), the facility nearby, or at least the area near there, is contested (3).
The attack down Patrica Lumumby Street has met its resistance (1). I don’t know *exactly* where. Somewhere between the drywall and ceramic factories. I think.
In the south, I’ve heard Ukraine pushed Russia out of parts of Ivanhrad, and Russia is now waging large sustained attacks on Opytne (4). The situation is difficult for Ukraine, the attacks are very intense, but it is holding.
More or less the same thing is happening in Klischiivka (5) as Opytne. Very intense attacks, but the defensive line is holding. Russia is trying to push out from the Andriivka area as well (6).
Russia is trying to punch toward Bila Hora (7) and Dyliivka (8).
In order to do so, they need to cross relatively flat wide open ground. Although there are these lower points cut into the ground.
Finally, there is intense fighting near Druzhba (9) and Pivnichne (10). Russia is trying to push down the road from Horivlivka and their newly captured Mayorsk to attack this more build up area. This should be a slog to attack, the residential/city areas extend almost 10km west.
