The commander of the eastern group of troops, Colonel-General Oleksandr Syrsky, is working today in the areas of hostilities in the Lyman and Bakhmut directions.
This is reported by Censor.NET with reference to the Telegram channel of the Ground Forces.
As noted, decisions on defense organization are made on the spot. Before that, Syrsky listens to the commanders and analyzes the operational situation. The situation is under control.
"The situation remains tense in the Bakhmut direction. Heavy fighting continues. In several suburban settlements of Bakhmut, the enemy's offensive actions have failed. However, the enemy does not abandon the goal of encircling Bakhmut and uses all possible forces and means for this until the total destruction of the city. In Bakhmut, our fighters not only carry out defensive actions but also actively counterattack. This gives us the opportunity to hold back the enemy's offensive for several months and not increase the front in this direction, destroy his best units, and buy time," said Syrsky.
