A representative of the eastern group of troops Sergey Cherevaty told about it on the air of the Espresso TV channel. "Bakhmut remains the main point of the impact of Russian invaders. They concentrate there all the power of the fire of their artillery, jet systems. As a rule, they carry out almost 200 shelling during the day," Cherevaty said.

These detachments under the cover of fire cover groups try to approach the advanced lines of Ukrainian defenders to start a melee and break through the Armed Forces Defense Line. "The weather now allows you to move more motion. Under the cover of terrain and weather, they try to approach our advanced lines, join the melee to tie the Armed Forces units of battle and break through our defense . . . We track such enemy groups and strike them," - The speaker explained.
Cherevaty also spoke about the situation near Avdiivka, which is conditionally for the enemy the second most important purpose, where fierce fighting is constantly taking place. Just like under Bakhmut, the invaders use all types of artillery and try to break through groups that have been completed with mobilized Russians. At the same time, in the Lugansk direction, the situation is controlled by the Armed Forces fighters who have some initiative.
