This is stated in the commentary by the Military Media Center, Ukrinform reports

In addition, the Russian aggressors continue to fortify the defense positions in the temporarily occupied Ukrainian territories.

At the same time, the enemy goes on the offensive in certain directions with the aim of capturing new territories in the eastern regions of Ukraine.

The Russian troops take measures to exhaust and restrain the defense potential of Ukraine as much as possible and to hinder the preparation of Ukrainian troops for a possible counteroffensive. For this, in particular, the use of loitering munitions was intensified.

As reported, Andriy Yusov, a representative of the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, said that the battles for Bakhmut had become catastrophic for the invaders in terms of manpower and equipment losses.
