Russian invasion forces are still advancing south of Bakhmut, try to bypass Opytne, and are now 2 km south of the city perimeters.

Ukrainian recon unit "Skala" posted a video yesterday, that - if recent(!!) - would mean the situation in Bakhmut is much worse than thought.
It indicated, Russian invasion forces again captured most the industrial part of the city.
Needs further confirmation to verify.

Visual confirmation, Russian invasion forces also advanced in SW Bakhmut and reached the city once again, occupying the first buildings.

Russian invasion forces captured 90% of #Bakhmut with Ukrainian forces clinching to some quarters in the West.
There is no reverse in trend for four months now, with Ukraine expected to lose the city without a decisive counter push to its north of south within weeks. https://twitter.com/JulianRoepcke/status/1651556749952925697/photo/1

Based on geolocated footage, Russian invasion forces indeed captured the remaining Ukrainian strongholds in Western #Bakhmut and now control up to 100% of the city.
It took "Wagner" more than 8 months and up to 20.000 fatalities to capture the 42 square kilometers. https://twitter.com/JulianRoepcke/status/1660373973421416448/photo/1
