The enemy has deployed significant forces in this area, but has only had isolated successes.

This was reported in a live broadcast on the “Kyiv” TV channel by Volodymyr Nazarenko, the deputy commander of the “Svoboda” battalion.

“There are very dynamic battles in the city of Bakhmut. The enemy is trying to advance almost towards Vuhledar. They are using all the army they scared us with for a new attack on Kyiv. The forces they accumulated in early January are not bringing them any strategic or tactical success. There are some advances in certain areas, but it’s only a few hundred meters. Some settlements have been lost, but they will be retaken,” said Nazarenko.
