Analysts have suggested that the Russian Federation was insufficiently mechanized forces to storm Ukrainian positions west of Bakhmut. Therefore, the environment is unlikely.
"Russian troops are increasingly relying on" assault detachments ", optimized for frontal attacks on fortified areas, not for a shunting war," the report reads. According to experts, these assault units are supported by artillery and tanks that do not leave the rear. The Russian Forces Command will also use such detachments in operations outside urban areas. Experts suggest that this tactic limits the ability of Russian forces to advance.
Yes, even if Bakhmut is occupied, it will only be a tactical victory for the Russians after 10 months of storming. Earlier, Zelensky explained CNN the reasons for keeping Bakhmut. According to the President, car ties of city nodes Kramatorsk and Slavyansk put these cities in the queue under the sight of the invaders, if Russia manages to take control of Bakhmut. Experts told when the war in Ukraine goes into a more active phase.
