Ukrainian Armed Forces Set Up Observation Posts Near Bakhmut: Prigozhin

Ukrainian Armed Forces have established observation posts near Bakhmut. “If that is the case, then expect the next steps from Ukraine. The southwestern outskirts of Bakhmut, which have been abandoned by Russian troops, are now back under the control of the Ukrainian Armed Forces,” said Yevgeny Prigozhin, the head of the Wagner military organization.

Earlier, on May 20, he stated that the ‘Wagnerians’ completely controlled the city. He has now confirmed that the Ukrainian Armed Forces are present in the gardens of Bakhmut, while the Russians are no longer there for ‘some reasons’.
