The main task for the Ukrainian defense forces in the Bakhmut sector is to wear down enemy forces and inflict heavy losses on them.

Colonel-General Oleksandr Syrskyi, the commander of the Ukrainian Ground Forces, stated this in a post on Telegram, Ukrinform reports.

According to him, the Russians are trying to concentrate their main efforts on the Bakhmut axis, attempting to encircle and take the city.

"At the moment, our main task is to wear down the overwhelming enemy forces and inflict heavy losses on them. This will make it possible to create the necessary conditions that will contribute to the liberation of Ukrainian land and speed up our victory," Syrskyi said.
