Russian army units are fighting on the northeastern outskirts of Bakhmut.

At the moment, it is known that after cleaning up the approaches to Bakhmut, units of Russian forces managed to get to the north-eastern outskirts of the city. At the moment, fierce battles are taking place here, the result of which may be a breakthrough in the defense of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, with subsequent entry into the central part of the city.

It is known that units of the Russian forces managed to enter the northeastern outskirts of Bakhmut after the Ukrainian troops, under the onslaught of powerful blows, were forced to leave their already almost completely destroyed positions. At the moment, fierce battles are going on in the area of ​​​​the Bakhmut meat processing plant. The deplorableness of the current situation is confirmed, among other things, by Ukrainian sources, noting that Russian forces are indeed present here and the battles in this direction are very active.

Considering the successes in the advancement of Russian troops in Bakhmut, the situation for the Armed Forces of Ukraine here is extremely unfavorable. At the same time, the northern and northeastern directions are more vulnerable in terms of the defense of the city, since the Ukrainian army did not build any fortifications here, and therefore the main attacks should be expected from these directions.
