#NewsMap w/corrected location
The Ukrainian army is destroying the bridges to western Bakhmut.
More signs of a change in strategy.

#NewsMap
The Russian invasion forces spearhead is currently located 7 km N-W of Bakhmut.
A Ukrainian drone video shows, it is still only engaged with artillery, which didn't stop it over the last 50 km moving West.
#BREAKING#NewsMap
The Ukrainian army destroyed a bridge over the LAST supply route in and out of Bakhmut, indicating a total withdrawal from the city is not just imminent, but armored vehicles were already moved West last night.
The city is probably empty for grab by Ru forces.
#NewsMp
PMC Wagner boss Evgeny Prigozhin was recently in Paraskoviivka, 1500 meters north of Bakhmut.
#UPDATE
Two sources say, Ukrainian troops and heavy machinery is still INSIDE Western Backhmut, so the city is NOT "empty for grab" by Russian forces.

Hoffe, eure Medizin schmeckt euch!
Ich halte das übrigens nicht für eine Attacke unter falscher Flagge. Die Gruppe hat den Angriff auf ihrer Telegram-Seite bestätigt und Propaganda-Meldungen der russischen Staatsmedien zu den Kämpfen zurückgewiesen.

Situation here. Russia is bombing various regions in Ukraine for two hours now. No impacts in Lviv so far.
On the way to Kyiv physical war damage is still visible all around from Makariv to the east. Ukraine started fixing the first damaged bridges and is cleaning up everywhere, but even here it will take years to rebuild what Russia destroyed in February and March last year.
Unfortunately, there is no change in battlefield dynamics on the northern Donetsk front.
On a front length of 30 km, Russian invasion forces keep slowly but steadily advancing, by far outnumbering Ukrainian defenders.
Russian aim remains to capture Bakhmut and advance westwards.

Ukrainian forces holding the front in Western #Soledar.
N-S- railroad connection is the current front line.

First confirmed sighing of Ukrainian troops inside #Soledar in four days.
Difficult and unexpected geolocation, clarifying the situation – IF RECENT (but seems so). Still no visual confirmation from the larger residential buildings in the north.
#NewsMap
Minimum area of #Soledar and its surroundings under Russian control, deduced from latest geolocations (no Russian or Ukrainian claims) – at least 90%.
Just one of many telling geolocations, showing why I believe #Soledar is almost completely under Russian control.
Wagner fighters moving calmly, dead Ukrainians lying on the streets, artillery fire in the background.
Short range battles seem over for now. Russians keep advancing.
Grim stuff: An Ukrainian army convoy, trying to leave #Soledar, did not recognize the escape road they chose was already under Russian control.
Wagner mercenaries set an ambush and destroyed a Ukrainian pickup and a French VAB transport tank. So there was a partial encirclement.
#NewsMap
Approximate situation in #Soledar, according to latest geolocaged footage.
Russian invasion forces entered the center from the East and the North and now hold approximately 80% of the city areal (appr. 20% of the urban center).
There is a very disturbing video, displaying lots of killed Ukrainian troops inside a highrise residential building, which I think - but not 100% certain - can be located here.
Also if it is a nearby building, it absolutely fits into "northern Soledar" where Wagner puts it.
Corrected geolocation and cross-checked with Ukrainian footage. It's some hundred meters to the north.
