Details. It is noted that last weekend, russia focused its efforts on reinforcing its defense positions in Southern Ukraine. At the same time, the occupiers do not stop attacking Ukrainian positions in Donetsk Oblast.
British intelligence officers assure that russia’s assault towards the town of Bakhmut has been its most successful direction in the Donbas over the last month; however, russia has only managed to advance about 10km during this time.
“In other Donbas directions where russia was attempting to break through the Ukrainian defenses, its forces have not gained more than 3km during this 30 day period. Significantly less than they had expected. Despite its continued heavy use of artillery, russia has not been able to generate capable combat infantry in sufficient numbers to secure more substantial advances,” the statement of British intelligence reads.
