UK Intelligence Says Russian Military Forces Continue To Advance In The Battle For Bakhmut
Ukraine has not acknowledged any Russian takeover of Bakhmut
Russian forces are threatening a key supply route for Ukrainian troops and have "likely" seized the center of Bakhmut after more than six months of brutal fighting over the town, the U.K. defense ministry said Friday.
Russian troops, largely led by Wagner mercenary forces, have been attempting to encircle the town to pinch it from the north and south, and on Wednesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he would pull their forces from the area if that threat became too great. "In recent days, Russian forces have regained some momentum in the battle for Bakhmut.
Since late March 2023 their advance had largely stalled," the ministry said in its daily intelligence assessment. "Russia has made further gains and has now highly likely advanced into the town center, and has seized the west bank of the Bakhmutka River."

The Ukrainian sources that I trust tell me that the battle for Bakhmut has resulted in Ukraine losing thousands of its best soldiers defending a city where Russian fire-power was at a magnitude 7 to 10 times greater than what Ukraine could muster, and more importantly, the expenditure and loss of munitions and equipment that will be difficult to replace.
The Russia sources that I trust tell me that the city has been "operationally surrounded" for weeks, and there are currently thousands of Ukrainian soldiers trapped in a small pocket in the Western section of the city.
