The assault of the Russian army in the Bakhmut region has practically stopped.

The British Ministry of Defense informs about this on Twitter.

"Ukraine also suffered heavy losses during its defense," the message reads.

The summary states that the situation in Bakhmut is aggravated by the tension in the relations between the Ministry of Defense of Russia and the "Wagner" group.

It is noted that Russia is likely to seek its operational focus on Avdiivka, south of Bakhmut, and the Kreminna-Svatov sector in the north, areas where Russia is likely only seeking to stabilize its front line.

"This involves a general return to a more defensive operational scheme after the inconclusive results of attempts to conduct a general offensive from January 2023," the British Ministry of Defense noted.

Earlier, the intelligence agency said that

 Russia

is considering the possibility of continuing the training program in Belarus.
