The Russian invaders tactically cannot complete the operation to capture 

Bakhmut.

All they have to do is launch "inertia" attacks.

This was stated by the spokesman of the Eastern Group of Forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Serhii Cherevaty, on the air of the telethon.

He said that the Russians failed a strategic offensive operation. 

"Now, in fact, tactically, they cannot complete the operation to capture the Ukrainian district center of Bakhmut. Yes, there are very active battles there, they still continue to carry out dozens of attacks on inertia, but they are suffering huge losses," the spokesman said.

Cherevaty noted that today the Ukrainian command together with the staffs are correctly planning the defense of Ukraine.

In particular, the armed forces are breaking the morale and capabilities of the occupiers.

The spokesman summarized that the statements of the leader of the "Wagner" PMK Yevgeny Prigozhin about the lack of ammunition are an SOS signal to the leadership of the Russian Federation.

In addition, he considers the statements of Prigozhin and the terrorist Igor Girkin to be the best demotivator for Russian troops.

Andriy Yermak

, announced that the plans of the army of the Russian Federation to capture 

Bakhmut 

, Donetsk region, are failing.

The Ukrainian Armed Forces continue to successfully hold the city.
