Bakhmut is now being enveloped and the defense of the town ties down Russians.Russian army needs to reenforce the Ukrainian breakthrough of the Surovikin line of defense. The breakthrough salient is heading toward Tokmak in the south and Verbove in the east. Russian soldiers moral is collapsing and POWS are talking about drunkeness, incompetence, and lack of artillery support. Russian army is on its heels. Stay strong.
