All conditions created to retake Bakhmut: Ukrainian general

All conditions have been created to retake Bakhmut, but it must be done with significantly fewer losses than the Russians suffered to capture the city, Colonel General Oleksandr Syrskyi, commander of the Ground Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, said in an interview with the BBC Ukrainian Service, Report informs.

"Currently, all conditions have been created to bring this city back to us, but with ten times smaller losses.

"Additionally, various dominant heights are concentrated around Bakhmut, which allows troops to control most of the terrain around on the approaches to the city, which increases its role as a springboard for further offensive actions," Syrskyi added.

He also said it was a mistake when the Wagner PMC completely "took" Bakhmut because, after suffering huge losses, the hostile group lost its combat capability.
