Russia said on Wednesday, July 5, its forces had struck three Ukrainian army groups near Bakhmut, but Kyiv said its forces, despite limited control in the long-contested city, had the Russians all but pinned down.
The Russian army in the area has since come under fierce pressure from Ukrainian forces who threaten to encircle it. Ukrainian military analyst Oleskandr Musiyenko said securing Klishchiivka was “important as it would lead to the liberation of Bakhmut itself. She said Russian forces were trying to advance near Lyman but were gaining no ground in any single direction nearby.
