ISW: 'Russian forces gained ground in Bakhmut'
The Russians are liberating the eastern parts of the city and have advanced to new positions in the northwestern area of Bakhmut, 800 meters from the AZOM metalworking plant. The American think tank 'The Institute for the Study of War' said that the forces of the Wagner Group have entered the AZOM industrial complex and that frontal assaults on the complex will probably be costly for the forces of the Wagner Group. The fact that Russian forces are prioritizing a frontal assault on a tactically challenging industrial area instead of opting for a wider encirclement of Western Bakhmut will likely be very costly for the Wagner Group.
