On June 5, the head of the Wagner PMCS, Yevgeny Prigozhin commented on the reports that the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) entered the village of Berhovka located on the north-western outskirts of Artyomovsk (Bakhmut).
Prigozhin confirmed that fighting is ongoing in the village which was secured by forces of the Russian Defence Ministry in May. the AFU reportedly entered the western outskirts of the settlement. Wagner fighters took control of the village back in February 2023. LINK
Ukrainian forces launched offensive operations on the outskirts of Bakhmut in mid-May, when Russian servicemen replaced Wagner fighters in the region to allow the PMCc to finish the mop up operation in the city. Then, Ukrainian forces attacked Russian positions to the west and south of Bakhmut. They managed to repel Russian forces from the road from Hromovo to Chasov Yar and reached the Berkhovsky water reservoir located to the south of the village.
On May 12, the official representative of the Russian Ministry of Defense declared that units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation took more advantageous positions in order to increase the stability of their defense, in the area of the water reservoir.
However, according to the recent reports confirmed by the head of the Wagner PMC, the Russian military failed to hold control of the western shore of the water reservoir and stepped back, allowing the AFU to enter the strategically important village.
When the chief of the General Staff of the Russian Federation Valery Gerasimov and Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu regrouped and stood along the Berhovsky reservoir, they said that it was necessary to protect the settlement, because there are very advantageous positions. So advantageous that everyone just haggled for them, Prigozhin claimed.
“Now part of the settlement of Berkhovka has already been lost, the troops are fleeing. Shame! Shoigu, Gerasimov, I urge you to come to the front, raise the army so that they go forward. Come on, you can! And if you can’t, you will die as heroes,” the press service of the Concord company quotes Prigozhin.
In the case of success, the AFU may pave the way to the northern outskirts of the city of Bakhmut and secure their control of the road to Slavyansk. On June 3, Prigozhin claimed that the AFU reportedly established their observation points in the gardens on the southern outskirts of Bakhmut, shelling Russian forces defending the city. LINK
Another attack of the AFU on the flank of Artyomovsk ended in a bloody failure (18+):
At the same time, the AFU are heavily shelling Russian positions in the area of Kleshcheyevka and Kurdyumovka. Heavy positional battles continue. The AFU reportedly stopped active offensive operations recently but they still maintain the military initiative in the area. The Ukrainian military also continues pulling additional forces to Chasov Yar and Ivanovskoye (Krasnoe).
South of Bakhmut, the Ukrainian military attempts to straighten the front the Pivnichnoye- Kurdyumovka-Kleshcheyevka and take control of the dominant height in the area. In the case of success they could threaten Russian Gorlovka.
So far, the Ukrainian military has only achieved some tactical success on the outskirts of Bakhmut. However, the further advance may threaten Russian defense in the city.
kick those ruzzian crap back to where it came from…
how is the changing of those light bulbs going pollak?
you can thank nato and us for this. :) it’s their war. to the last ukrainian. :)
some nato countries, like for example turkey, hungary, greece dont want any kind of conflict with russia, let alone a war. and they have veto right.
lots of dead polish soldiers and mercenaries there . . .
excellent :d
excellent :d
bend over, take the usual polish submission position and wait for your turn pollack. russians coming your way soon enough, to give you what you deserve. you filthy nato prostitutes.
fucking dumb polak.
he doesn’t understand that the anglo saxons are just playing the ukrainians for fools, just like they did to his poland to start wwii.
say it without cry little dick suckers
the american and british public should be forced to watch this so that they can see what ‘their’ governments are causing. the lying western media will continue to hide this and the causes of this filthy war.
exactly. all they want to do is wave pretty blue and yellow flags and welcome refugees, like they are trained to do. if they saw what they were supporting they would refuse to have anything to do with it. there was no need for a war. zelensky could have bent over and taken one for the team and peace like we are all told to do, compromise and tolerance we are conditioned to demonstrate. hypocrits the lot of them.
aici bucureștiul. uneori cuvintele pot deranja. ori ai imaginație, determinare, foame si lupti, ori mori. tipul spune cuvinte care deranjeaza…. dar sunt adevarate. ar putea lupta sub el multi. prea multi… cbiar poate deranja…..
show no mercy with ukronazis. the less around the better.
russian generals are allready planning the next glorious planned masterfull retreat.
go eat the insects as you are told, serf. your entire continent is dying suddenly of mysterious illnesses-caused by the people who run nato by the way. enjoy watching your country be depopulated and replaced with low wage earners while your families can no longer reproduce. what a stooge. no wonder your political leaders sold you out for depopulation: you’re incompetent and incapable of independent thinking.
so much hatred. if you would read comments you would realise that i am pro russian. i am just mocking their communication strategy. cause i am sorry i heard too many times everything goes to plan. how does a plan look with such results? why do the biggest slavic countries (russia and ukraine) on the planet have to lie all the time in the most unrealistic way? you are making a mockery of all slavic and eastern european countries.
yeah the us lie most of the times but in a way a huge chunk of the world population is unable to realise it. is nobody able to just communicate without hatred any longer in this world the pro western side attack everyone who does not cheer ukraine and the russian side everyone who does not cheer russia. this war is stupid it hurts russia, ukraine and the eu. it only helps the usa and china.
the slavic people live on a lie. look at how they practice their religion as if it were a truth.
it is genius of the united states to make the slaves fight each other.
it saves many american lives, and at a later stage the united states may win the war.
not all of us fell for that propaganda. we know our government is corrupt.
ćuti bre budalo.
good to see the soldiers of the criminal rapist army of the ukroreich sustaining heavy casualties. these criminals drop artillery shells on children and civilians for more than eight years now. the earth needs to be rid of these murderers.
amazing that guy was still alive, i’ve seen roadkill that looked better. i guess they are shifting from offensive to defensive locations, you might not want a reservoir behind you unless you have immediate plans for advance, then troops can be freed up to go elsewhere and attack there instead, so hopefully things are still going ok but no doubt there is some opposition there.
ukrainian barbecue, hoping soon to see polish, germans and other european homosexuals being destroyed by the russian war machine
russia has the shittiest army, unbelievable lol
how many dead ukrainian military personnel since the us coup in kiev in 2014? how much territory lost by the failed ukrainian cia project since the us coup?
some retreats are excellent—always good to trap amerikan polak rats in a cauldron. a moron amerikan will sacrifice 300 hohols for a hectare of praries. medieval approaches cannot cope w guerrilla tactics
wagner’s advance, russian military retreats…………..this is becoming a norm.
that’s terrible.
the putin cockroaches are fleeing bakhmut? wasn’t it supposed to be captured already?
the russian army really should stop fighting for these goat and chicken towns. and attack the ukrainian cadre like the us phoenix program
the guy with the four tourniquets will die anyway. he would have been better off with a triple dose of morphine.
polaks pussies die for his owner usa
