The Colonel General described the situation in the city as a tense but controlled by defense forces. According to him, the enemy is doing everything to capture Bakhmut by May 9. Russian invaders have not abandoned the plans to seize Bakhmut and are now preparing a new trap for the Ukrainian military. The commander of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine wrote this in his telegram-channel on May 7.

The Colonel General visited the Armed Forces in the Bakhmut direction, and published his conclusions in the telegram. Syrsky said that he had discussed with the commanders measures to strengthen the city's defense and buried the necessary operational decisions. And the very situation in Bakhmut called tense, but controlled. According to him, Russian invaders in Bakhmut increased the intensity of shelling of heavy weapons and began regrouping troops.

"This indicates that the enemy is not going to change his plans and does everything possible to take Bakhmut under control and continue offensive actions," Sirsky wrote. He added that the Armed Forces did not give up the initial plan to seize the city until May 9, when the so -called "Victory Day" would be celebrated in the Russian Federation. "Our task is not to allow this. So today it is important to make the decision as quickly as possible and predict the enemy's actions," Syrsky stressed.

We will remind, on May 5, the Armed Forces commented on the statement of Prigogine to withdraw from Bakhmut on May 10. According to Anna Malyar, the invaders are still trying to capture Bakhmut by May 9, so the command only captures the troops.
