    All Ukraine said is that Russia deployed 15000 men to Bakhmut and that Ukraine fighting in Bakhmut keeps them from being redeployed to the Zaporizhzhia front… Sensationalist titles, much?

      I mean he also said “Now it’s redeployed to roughly the north of Bakhmut, and that’s the place where it’s going to be buried.”

      To me it sounds like the strategy is to pin down units to prevent them redeploying, but this specific pinning is going so poorly for the Russians they have no means of escape.

      Maybe I’m misinterpreting.
