Ukraine 'breaks through' Russian lines at Bakhmut as major offensive looms
Evening Standard
|May 12, 2023
UKRAINIAN forces advanced by about a mile around the embattled eastern town of Bakhmut this week, a minister said today.
-
Other defence experts said Ukraine’s army was “likely” to have broken through Russian lines in the area, a claim denied by Moscow.
Vladimir Putin has sent thousands of Russian troops to their death in a desperate bid to seize the town in the Donetsk province.
But Ukraine’s Deputy Defence Minister Hanna Maliar stressed that her country’s army had seized back some of the fought-over land.
She wrote on the Telegram messaging app that “the enemy failed to carry out its plans; the enemy suffered great losses of manpower; our defenders advanced 2km (1 .2 miles) in the Bakhmut sector; we did not lose a single position in Bakhmut this week”.
