The Ukrainian defenders continue the advance in the direction of Bakhmut and killed 130 Russians in battle and captured 4. "I appeal to the heads of the Ministry of Defense publicly because my letters are not read," Yevgeny Prigozhin said in a voice message.
"Bakhmut remains the epicenter of hostilities in eastern Ukraine," the representative of the Eastern Group of the Ukrainian Armed Forces Sergey Cherevaty said. "Our units, despite there being no advantage in terms of personnel, shells and equipment, continue to advance on the flanks," he says.
