Now the battle of the Ukrainian army in the strategic Bakhmut is changing.
The purpose of a battle is to occupy a key area or to annihilate the enemy army.
In the Battle of Bakhmut, the Russian army had hitherto fought with the aim of occupying this land.
On the other hand, the Ukrainian army adopted a tactic of forcing the Russian army to attack and force them to continue the offensive even at the cost.
See JBpress “Russian Army Bakhmut offensive is a sign of great defeat, high possibility of recapturing Crimea” (2023.3.8)
To emphasize their victory, the Russians continued their offensive, even at great cost, in order to seize the key position of Bakhmut.
Ultimately, that goal was not achieved by Victory Day on May 9.
On the other hand, the Ukrainian army defended the strategic point Bakhmut, retreated here and pulled in the Russian army, killing and wounding many of the Russian soldiers who repeatedly attacked recklessly.
The two goals of the Ukrainian army were well achieved.
After that, around May 10th, the battle aspect changed from before.
Looking at the way the Ukrainian army is fighting, it seems that they are trying not only to recapture Bakhmut, but also to surround and destroy the Wagner troops led by Mr. Prikozin, who continue to attack in Bakhmut.
