"Russians, north of Bakhmut, according to the Russian MOD 'occupied the frontier, taking into account the favorable conditions of the Berkhivs'ke Reservoir.'
Are they? 🤔 They seem to be fleeing.

All involved parties more or less agree in reference to the latest developments around Bakhmut.
Russian lines along the northern and southern flanks of Bakhmut are crumbling. But also in the city itself Russians have been losing ground. More importantly, this also confirms that the Ukrainian supply lines have gotten considerable relief and are in no immediate way to be cut off.
Also, I don't think that this is *the* counteroffensive, but more of a local development based on the Russian loss of troops and, effectively, momentum. Prigozhin's complaint might be genuine, considering that Shoigu will need all reserves for the upcoming Ukrainian offensive and most certainly will not be inclined to help his rival.
Either way, in my opinion and judging the current situation the Ukrainian determination to continue to defend Bakhmut has turned out to be the absolutely right decision.
