Battle for #Bakhmut - Situation until 17:00 on 20 May 2023
After the Flight of the AFU's 60th and 93rd Mechanized Brigades, as well as the 241st Territorial Defence Brigade from the southwestern outskirts of #Bakhmut, the assault squads of the Wagner PMC completely liberated the city. By 25 May, the territories will be cleared from the remnants of Ukrainian formations.
Despite the long awaited success, the situation at the front is only approaching an active phase. The AFU lost tens of thousands of militants in the defence of #Bakhmut and #Soledar, but parts of the strategic reserve were not involved.
New Formations from the 9th and 10th Army Corps are in the rear areas and are preparing for an attack. In the radio intercepts of AFU militants, the third decade of May was noted as a possible beginning of the offensive.
In recent Weeks, artillery units have been preparing guns for intense shelling, ammunition has been brought to warehouses. And at the tactical level, combat orders have already been sent out.
#Bakhmut has been liberated, and this victory will go down in history as one of the biggest battles. And it is his fall that can become a catalyst for the beginning of the long awaited AFU offensive.
Taking into account the flanking attacks of the AFU at #Bakhmut, clusters of formations on the #Zaporozhye and #SouthDonetsk directions, as well as on #Kupyansk - #Svatovso, it is there that the main enemy strikes should be expected.
