In the Bakhmut direction, the Russian invaders are no longer on the defensive and have begun to attack with renewed vigor. The head of the public relations service of the command of the Ground Forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Vladimir Fityo, said this during the telethon.
He said that in the Bakhmut direction during the day, Ukrainian defenders repulsed 15 attacks by the Russian army.
“Activity in this direction began with renewed vigor, the enemy there moved from defense to active defense, trying to recapture those positions that were lost from him. And, accordingly, in the Bakhmut direction and south of Bakhmut, the enemy is trying to put pressure on our Defense Forces.” , said Fityo.
A representative of the Ukrainian Armed Forces noted that the escalation near Bakhmut began last week. Before this, the occupiers were on the defensive, but now they are trying to “probe” the defenses of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, find weak points and are conducting active artillery work on Ukrainian positions.
He noted that 140 Russians and more than 28 pieces of equipment were liquidated in this direction during the day. Of these, more than 10 are artillery systems of various types.
On November 3, Fityo reported that in the Bakhmut direction the enemy was strengthening and increasing pressure. He tries to regain all the positions that he lost. In the Bakhmut area, the Russians storm mainly with infantry, and use equipment from dug-in positions, the 3rd Special Operations Brigade reported.
