"Bakhmut's operation benefits us because the enemy loses a large number of soldiers every day, for example 175 Russians were killed and 213 were wounded yesterday in Bakhmut alone. Many vehicles were destroyed, tanks and drones, and at the Finally I can say that we will totally destroy the Wagner group by the end of the operation".
This was stated by the spokesman of the eastern group of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Serhiy Cherevaty, in an interview with ANSA.
"If the Wagners will fight the way they have fought so far, with so many losses, it means that we will completely destroy the Wagners in Bakhmut and they will no longer exist," he added.
As for the liberation of the eastern Ukrainian territories, "in my opinion it could take 3 to 6 months".
This was stated by the spokesman of the eastern group of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Serhiy Cherevaty, in an interview with ANSA.
"It will depend on how many weapons and vehicles we will have", he added, explaining however that he cannot report on the counter-offensive: "It is not our job to know what the general staff is preparing. We as combatants on the field prepare the ground for its onset, we kill the enemies and destroy their military potential".
