The British Ministry of Defense reports successful counterattacks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the west of Bakhmut

The Armed Forces of Ukraine have taken advantage of the reserve units in Chasovoy Yar and are attacking the western approaches to Bakhmut.

Against the background of how the Ukrainian army lost the route connecting Bakhmut, Khromovo and Chasov Yar, it became known that units of the Ukrainian troops began to carry out local counterattacks. According to the British Ministry of Defense, Ukrainian troops managed to partially unblock the highway connecting Bakhmut, Khromovo and Chasov Yar.

At the moment, the route is still not under the control of Ukrainian troops. However, the Armed Forces of Ukraine use their reserve forces located on tactical heights to the west of Bakhmut and conduct heavy fire from mortars, tanks and artillery on the western and southwestern approaches to Bakhmut. It is reported that due to the partial release of the Khromovo-Chasov Yar highway, the Armed Forces of Ukraine got the opportunity to carry out the rotation of forces in Bakhmut itself, although the route is still under the fire control of the Wagner PMC, although not total.

According to experts, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are deliberately delaying the surrender of Bakhmut, trying to build up forces in this direction.

According to various estimates, today the Russian army controls about 70-75% of the territory of Bakhmut.
