The situation in Artyomovsk is still extremely difficult - the Armed Forces of Ukraine are preparing a counterattack

The Ukrainian army is trying to hold the western part of Artyomovsk for a counterattack from the flank.

At the moment, fighting on the territory of Artyomovsk is fierce for almost every house located in the city. The Armed Forces of Ukraine, having taken up defensive positions on the outskirts of the city, are conducting almost incessant shelling of the city using artillery, mortars and combat aircraft, trying to buy time to regroup and launch a counterattack from the flank, thereby intending to expand control over the southwestern part of the city.

It is known that after the displacement of the Ukrainian military to the western part of the city, the Armed Forces of Ukraine began to actively use armored vehicles. This is likely due to a higher ability to maneuver, as well as regrouping in order to plan their strikes.

Today, about 30% of the city's territory is under the control of the Ukrainian army, about 60% of the territory is under the control of Russian forces, and about 10% of the city's territory is the so-called gray zone.

Experts fear that with the change in the weather, the Armed Forces of Ukraine will be able to more actively use Western satellites and intensify their strikes using Western weapons.

According to analysts, by the end of this month, the transition of Bakhmut under the control of Russian troops should not be expected.
