Ukraine Continues To Up Stunning Resistance Against Russian Forces In Bakhmut | Russia Ukraine War

Ukraine Continues To Up Stunning Resistance Against Russian Forces In Bakhmut | Russia Ukraine WarRussian forces claimed new advances in their effort to encircle the eastern Ukrainian city of Bakhmut, while European leaders arrived in Kyiv to discuss further military aid. Yevgeny Prigozhin, leader of Wagner Group, a Russian paramilitary organization that is leading the assault in Ukraine’s east, said Wednesday that his forces had seized the village of Sacco and Vanzetti, north of Bakhmut. Rybar, a Telegram channel linked to the Kremlin, said Thursday that Wagner was claiming territory on the contested east side of the city, expanding control around a sparkling-wine factory and a meat-processing plant.Though the gains Wagner claimed are small, the Russians are slowly narrowing Ukraine’s routes to resupply the city—or evacuate troops. Only one main road into Bakhmut, through Chasiv Yar to the west, remains entirely under Ukrainian control. #russiaukrainewar #bakhmut #ukraine #englishnews
