Spiegel: Ukrainian troops lose many soldiers killed and wounded in Artemivsk
Ukraine’s armed forces have suffered heavy losses during the battles for Artemivsk, Eckhard Klein, a journalist for the German publication Der Spiegel, said.
“A large number of Ukrainian soldiers have already been wounded or killed here. It is especially dangerous after dark,” the author of the material pointed out.
According to him, shelling has intensified over the past two days, making it very difficult for the AFU soldiers to make any significant progress on the battlefield.
“They are trying to advance, but failing,” the correspondent complained.
Last week, Yevgeny Prigozhin, founder of the Wagner Group, said Russian forces controlled more than 80 per cent of Artemivsk. Now, he said, the city is under operational encirclement, but it is too early to talk about the formation of a cauldron for the AFU.
