(ANSA) - ROME, FEBRUARY 05 - "While multiple alternative supply routes across the country remain available to the Ukrainian forces, the city of Bakhmut is increasingly isolated".
The intelligence of the British Defense Ministry wrote it on Twitter, explaining that the two main roads of the city for the Ukrainian defenders - the M03 and the H32 - are probably now both threatened by direct fire, following the Russian advance". beginning of the week, the paramilitary forces of the Wagner group most likely seized a subordinate route connecting Bakhmut to the city of Siversk".
The founder of the Wagner mercenary company, Yevgeny Prigozhin, later confirmed on Telegram that in the northern districts of Bakhmut (the name in Russian is Artemovsk) fierce battles were waged "on every street" and that the Ukrainian armed forces are not retreating.
