(MENAFN- UkrinForm) Russian forces did not make any confirmed advances within Bakhmut on Saturday, March 11. “Russian forces did not make any confirmed advances within Bakhmut on March 11. Ukrainian and Russian sources continue to report heavy fighting in the city, but Wagner Group fighters are likely becoming increasingly pinned in urban areas, such as the AZOM industrial complex, and are therefore finding it difficult to make significant advances,” reads the report of the U.S. Institute for the Study of War.
