Ukraine's armed forces have lost up to 235 soldiers, two armored vehicles and six cars in the Donetsk region in the past 24 hours, with four brigades defeated, the Russian Defense Ministry said.
"In the Donetsk region the units of Battle Group "South" in cooperation with aviation and artillery repelled an attack by the Ukrainian army near the settlement of Bogdanovka of the Donetsk People's Republic.
Russian forces overpowered the 28th, 54th motorized, 10th assault brigades and the 112th territorial defense brigade near the settlements of Krasnoye, Vasyukovka, Razdolovka and Kleshcheyevka of the Donetsk People's Republic," the statement said.
Ukrainian army losses in the area totaled 235 soldiers, two armored vehicles and six cars, the ministry said.
The Ukrainian armed forces lost up to 135 soldiers and two vehicles in the region of South Donetsk in the past 24 hours, according to the same statement.
Signs of a total collapse of the Ukrainian defense are now visible on almost all fronts of the war with the war between V. Zelensky's administration and the Army reaching its peak.
Russian forces have launched a blitzkrieg north of Bakhmut recapturing important territory and are now advancing towards Chasiv Yar. Already Russian forces are on the outskirts of Bogdanovka settlement.
After Avdifka and Kupyansk, the Russians went on the offensive and on the Bakhmut front, taking advantage of the movement of Ukrainian reserves to Avdifka.
This attack by the Russian forces marks - and formally - the end of the Ukrainian counter-attack in Bakhmut. The Ukrainians lost in two days what territorial gains they made in the last 3 months.
Hundreds of Ukrainians have been killed in Bakhmut since July until today during the infamous "Ukrainian counter-offensive". We remind you that while the US military command called on the Ukrainian leadership to abandon the idea of attacking Bakhmut, Zelensky did not listen to the advice, which led to the exhaustion of the Ukrainian armed forces and the loss of territory in this part of the front.
Russian troops attacked Ukrainian forces north of Bakhmut. For several hours, artillery and missile forces of the Russian Armed Forces operated against positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces west of the settlement of Berkhovka and northwest of Yagodnoye.
After preparing the artillery, the Russian forces began their advance.
Thus, as a result of successful operations, Russian troops took control of the entire southern shore of the Berkhovsky reservoir and advanced to the railway axis leading in the direction of Chasiv Yar.
Ukrainians record a significant retreat.
Russian forces having taken control of the entire southern coast of the Berkhovka reservoir, moved further south, gaining control of several heights, one of which is designated as B-171 (height, Berkhovka area is 171 m).
