"More than the Czech Army or Hungary": In the Armed Forces, how many occupiers were fighting in Bakhmut

The enemy focused all the efforts to capture the positions of defense forces or knock out Ukrainian units from Bakhmut, as well as to take fire control and capture the ways leading to the city, the command spokesman Sergey Cherevaty said. Russian invaders do not leave attempts to capture the city of Bakhmut in Donetsk.

Russian propaganda brings fighting to the fortress city as the second "battle for Stalingrad", which is why the Kremlin throws there almost all the forces to declare to the Russians for the first time in the last 10 months, though about some "victory".

According to the newspaper, Moscow put itself another deadline on the occupation of Bakhmut - May 9, after which Putin may declare that all the goals stated in Ukraine in Ukraine were fulfilled by the Ukrainian army. In the event that the Russian Federation announces the end of the war before the Armed Forces counter -offensive, there is a risk that world leaders can begin to persuade Kiev to hold peace talks instead of the start of a military operation.
