| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. by Yuriy Butusov [Censor] Russian units were unable to gain a foothold on the Bakhmut-Lysychansk highway. Russian troops continue the offensive in the Bakhmut area, in the strip from the villages of Klinove south of Bakhmut to the village of Berestovo north of Bakhmut. The offensive is very slow due to the resistance of Ukrainian troops, but the slow push of our defense continues. Russian units were unable to gain a foothold on the Bakhmut-Lysychansk highway, but the highway continues to fire small arms near the village of Nagirne. Traffic on the route is closed, cargo is bypassing the route in this place. Heavy fighting is going on, Ukrainian soldiers are inflicting heavy losses on the enemy. But we also suffer significant losses. The enemy advanced in the area of Pokrovsky and Klinov near Bakhmut. Russian troops entered the Limon the city is fighting. The main reason for advancing the enemy is a great advantage in the means of destruction and the amount of ammunition. Russian troops maneuver freely on the front and have the ability to withdraw troops from other areas not attacked by them in order to concentrate their forces in areas where they want to advance. The enemy is also tired and no longer uses large-scale attacks, trying to solve tactical tasks by concentrating artillery and air strikes. Russian troops, units of the 76th Airborne Assault Division, continue their attempts to break through to the Bakhmut-Lysychansk route on a wide front. Ukrainian soldiers in the Donbas are making every effort to defeat Russian strike groups and thwart Russian troops' plans. Russian troops are suffering heavy losses. A youtube.com video was linked to by a commenter, stating that a rocket artillery unit of the Ukrainian 24th Mechanized Rifle Brigade (King David) launched an attack on Russian troops in eastern Ukraine.
