Heavy clashes continue on the outskirts of the city of Bakhmut, also known as Artemovsk, located in the Donetsk People’s Republic. The city remains under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), while the Russian military is storming the industrial area on the eastern outskirts and approaches the city from the souther direction, where the battle for control of the village of Opytnoe is ongoing.
Units of the Wagner Group are holding control of the local Asphalt plant located in the south-eastern part of the industrial area. At the same time, Russian assault groups are advancing in the city down Patrice Lumumba Street. The mop up operations are ongoing on the territory of the local furniture factory and the Bakhmut plant of construction ceramics.
The rest of the industrial facilities are currently in the gray zone, that is, none of the warring sides controls them.

Ukrainian forces have recently shared videos from the industrial area, showing the destructions on the territory of the Siniat plant located several kilometers to the west from the Bakhmut plant of construction ceramics. Ukrainian sources claimed another victory of the Ukrainian military. Some sources mistakenly reported that the AFU repelled Russian Wagner fighters from the asphalt plant.
However, Russian forces have never claimed control of the facility. Ukrainian servicemen reportedly left their positions from the Siniat plant about a week ago. They shared some photos which were declared as a new victory. The Ukrainian military is unlikely to reestablish their positions in the area. Thus, the fighting for the control of the facility is yet to take place.
On the southern outskirts of the city, Russian-led forces hold control of the village of Ivangrad and are storming Opytnoe. Clashes continue in the village. The villages of Veselaya Dolina and Zaitsevo are also under Russian control. Russian forces are securing their positions in the area in order to threaten the Ukrainain grouping in Bakhmut from the southern direction.
The Russian military is advancing to the west across the Bakhmutka River. The village of Otradovka located on the road leading to Bakhmut is under Russian control. On October 24, during the assault operation launched from Otradovka, Russian troops repelled units of the 58th motorized infantry brigade of the AFU to the reserve lines of defence.
The Russian military is approaching Klesheevka and Kurdymovka. Their goal is to cut off the railways leading to Bakhmut from the south-western direction.
In their turn, on October 24, fighters of the 46th separate assault battalion of the 53rd separate mechanized brigade of the AFU attempted to attack the flank of Russian forces from Kleshcheevka. The attack was repelled and allowed the Russian military to go on the offensive in the area.
Wagner fighters showed concrete firing positions of Ukrainian troops near Zaitsevo:
The Ukrainian grouping in Bakhmut risks to be surrounded from the south-western direction; but so far, the pace of Russian advance in the region has been slowed down. The Wagner assault groups are also unlikely to advance in the city before the main supply roads of the Ukrainian military are cut off.
The Ukrainian garrison in Bakhmut holds the defense and even attempts to counterattack without much success.
On October 24, Ukrainian servicemen shared a video from the city center, claiming that there were no Russian soldiers. The video was made on the right bank of the Bakhmutka river, on the the intersection of Independence Street with B. Gorbatov Street, i.e. far from the area of the ongoing hostilities.
Despite the fact that the Russian military is yet to enter the city center, the video shared by the Ukrainian soldier shows that the buildings in the area have already been damaged. The locals confirm that the city was damaged as a result of the shelling by the Ukrainian artillery from the town of Chasov Yar. The shells do not reach Russian positions on the eastern outskirts but hit the residential quarters in various districts of the city.
Ukrainian forces are reinforcing their positions in the city, preparing for the upcoming Russian assault. They traditionally erect barricades on the streets near the civilian facilities. Ukrainian servicemen together with Polish and British mercenaries avoid direct combat contact with the Russian military, equipping firing points in residential buildings and apartments, as well as at large civilian enterprises.
Some civilians still remain in the city, but there are very few of them left.
Nah, the russians butts in front of Bakhmut are already toast. Wagners got beaten, russian miss troops and material, no advance they manage to do. When they try they die. Heavy losses they already sustained there. They can thank Mr. Putin for that. As in Putin’s eyes everything goes exactly according to the plan.
Most of the pro-putin fanatic little whimps here in this forum still wonder why Putin not crushes the Zelensky regime, why he lied the young russian troops into this war by telling them they are just going on a “training mission near the ukrainian border” when in fact he sent them over the border and directly into a hornets-nest of armed-to-the-teeth anti-communists, why he waited full 8 years with his invasion untill Ukraine was fully up-armoured and its military steelhardend, US-trained and up-armed and up-ammunitioned to the teeth, moreover why he invaded with just that small completely insufficient number of troops etc. etc. Is that all just ‘coincidences’ ???? Questions over questions you have. And there is only one simply answer. He is not who you think he is. He is in cahoots with the NWO and is a traitor to Russia. Same as Biden is a traitor to USA, Scholz+Habeck to Germany, Macron to France etc. etc. That’s the sad truth !
The “Russians” have been attacking this village for months. Thanks to Putin and his cronies the Russian army is too weak to complete any tasks.
And Ukraine cannot clear its territory for months, which goes to show Ukraine is losing big time. Territory larger than the United Kingdom has been taken by Russian forces, what success has Ukraine had? None, besides shooting civilians they don’t like.
Shooting, looting, torturing, maimimg random civilians
It says You have no iedead about modern defence by Nato in the Ukra version.
You only know the Russian warfare systems. So why has they not won months ago. Why do the Russians have a hard time.
When You see the Ukras not attacking in the way You expect, its because they are not given weapons from us for attack. It was forbidden when Ukra was made.
We keep that still being too nice.
lol in the comming weeks the russian forces will be trippled in ukraine with the 300.000 called in reservists and dozents of trains full of ammo, artillery and tanks now heading to the ukro front lines. so the hardest winter in the short history of ukropistan its on his way soon.
Thanks for the clarification/correction on the situation in Bakmut (Artemovsk). There has obviously been some confusion between the Siniot works to the west of the city and the asphalt plant to the south east – which is where The Wagner Group are presently engaged. Where does this leave Musk’s taunt on Twitter? Clearly Starlink’s intel is not always reliable!
Very slow progress here……
In principle yes, but time is on Russian side. The merciless winter is coming. Kadyrov called the Jihad against nazis yesterday.
What he was waiting for all this time?!
The Odessa massacre was in 2014!
The EU has been a shithole for some time …
Typical infantile comment. Ukras know their own winther well.
People like Hitler and Napoleon did not.
lol. and what will the ukros do this winter, with usually up to -30C in ukraine, if russia destroys the most of ukro gas, thermal and electricity system in the next weeks?
and today they destroyed huge storage of oil. Mostly in Dniper.
By now everybody know that in worst case scenario Putin will push the red button, so a total capitulation from the Russian side is off the table. Was the invasion justified? Yes, I am not Russian myself but I know that they have a proverb (Cvoi ne Brossaem), this explain their courage and determination to liberate the region from Nazism. Acting like thieves, the US and the EU are confiscating Russian money and assets to finance the corruption machinery in Kiev, this is illegal. But this money (hard earned by Russia) will Never go back to Russia. We are talking about approx. 1 trillion of Dollars. The only way to get compensation would be to seize the entire Ukraine. A fair exchange. You confiscated my fortune, I confiscated your slave. Now, after listening the speech of Kadyrov yesterday(I compare that speech with the speech of Churchill before the Allied invasion of Normandy), it looks like the RF understood the math above. So, yes, Kiev will be liberated from Nazi terrorism. It will take time, but it will be achieved still in this Winter. And trolls, please, just cope.
Check out for Odessa massacre 2014 and see for yourself if invasion was justified… I do not understand why it was not done to crush the USA terrorists trained in Pooland while they were orchestrating the Maidan
2,15% in Ukriane are nazis not even having seat in their parlament.
Starting with a lie of cource makes the rest true no matter what.
Most of the confiscated money belongs to the Rusian people but are kept away from them. None would ever reach Your belowed proletars. We just take from the thieves.
It’s not 2,15% only. And you know that. Now in the government you have 50% Nazis and 50% terrorists.
Trench warfare
Very clear that Russian army doesn´t know how to fight,the level of training and leadership of Russian infantry is nothing short of tragic .. Russian infantry is just bunch of amateurs in uniform
very clear that your moronic hasbara bullshit is boring.
also very clear you are a schizo
We’re looking forward to many many liquidated Polak and Brit mercenaries in the ongoing liberation of Artemovsk from Natostan naZi forces. The more dead Natostan thugs the better for post war rump Ukrapland.
You can go to a traumecenter and get help.
So what about the Ukras there? Are they none??? Nazis all over ??? You are tricked and still dont see it as if You have no internet and international TV.
Learn how to articulate and build phrases in English troll, nobody here understands what you are talking about.
Yes, Jens and people need to focus on who Mr. Putin really is. He’s an ex-KGB boss. He is supported by his jewish childhood friend the billionaire Arcady Rotenberg as well as jewish billionaire Abramovic (who brought Putin into power)and of course jewish moskovite prime-rabbi, Berel Lazar, and all the other kosher dicks above and beside him. He forced more and more laws upon the russians which forbid and strictly punish speaking out the truth about the Jews.
He gave the contract for building the Kerch Bridge to his above mentioned old jewish childhood friend Arcady Rotenberg. And he gave the poor russians the order to go, fight and die in Ukraine – even worse he told them that its not war but just a “training mission near the ukrainian border” Russian money and safety for the Jews, and dirt, blood, poverty and death for the christian russians, that’s Mr. Putins policy straight away. Camouflaged behind fake patriotism and communism nostalgia.
And he is also part of the NWO resp. JWO (Jewish World Order) and Klaus Schwab already told us that he helped install Putin into Russia too, and that Putin was one of the best absolvents of their globalist Rothschild finances “Young Global Leader programm”. So why anybody in eighter Russia or Europe or elsewhere on earth still trusts this treacherous ugly little jew-worm, Putin, I really don t know. Btw. see what this lady has found, it proves that Putin also belongs to the elites pedophile circle. https://tinyurl.com/dz3xwznj
destroy the enemies supply routes, power plants, gas and energy infrastructure, than millions of ukros will be forces to flee westwards to avoid freezing to death, and the western pupulation will go on the streets because these masses of new refugees. in december all new reservists will be ready and can be sent to the front lines. than build up the forces, bring in much more heavy armament and than push forward on the frozen ground with the superiority in power and numbers of the armoured units and artillery. than the whole thing could be over in summer next year with a victory parade in odessa.
Unfortunatly the article is a little outdated. The Ukras has taken vital terrain back.
The Wagners there paid by taken m2 for the moment now only will get some mini kopecks.
The problem with this war is that Zelensky takes cocaine and Putin takes prozac, so the little one moves like a squirrel and the big one like a sleeping turtle.
If something is surprising about Putin, it is that he gives all the time in the world to the enemy to organize and fight back, for example, the United States is already bringing tactical nuclear weapons to Europe.
Another thing about “slow and wavering” Putin is that he continually threatens but never delivers, so the enemies no longer believe or fear the braggart, this is seen not only in Ukraine but also in Syria and elsewhere.
Another terrible thing about Putin is that he always scrimps on his forces, he is incapable of being decisive, he mobilizes 300,000 troops late and badly, when to have superiority and confidence in victory any true leader would put 1,000,000.
I am pro-Russian but for me Putin is a disappointment, we are already in a war of positions with no end in sight, with heavy losses for both Slavic sides, which makes the Anglo-Saxons and NATO enormously happy.
