Departed from the Center: the Armed Forces fighters in Bakhmut took new positions west of the railway - the media (video)

Journalist Julian Repke writes that Ukrainian defenders have left the west of the railway, and the Russian forces were left to pass about 2 km to the western borders of Bakhmut. Ukrainian defenders in Bakhmut left the last held positions in the city center and departed west of the railway. This was announced on April 23 by a German newspaper Bild Julian Repke. According to him, Russian soldiers have already moved west of the railway tracks and look like the offensive.

Ripke also posted several videos from the scene, as well as a map marked by the occupants of Bakhmut. However, the journalist notes that if the building on the frames was correctly identified, then about 2 km of the city remained under the control of the Armed Forces. "If the building is indeed under Russian control, then the invasion forces remain less than 2 km before they reach Bakhmut's western administrative border," he wrote.

Repk also wrote that in one of the video with a strong magnification, you can see the flag of the Wagner PVC on a building located in the western Bakhmut. However, it is impossible to consider clearly, so it is not sure that the building is under the control of mercenaries. "Not sure, but it looks like Wagner has put his flag on a well -known high -rise position of the Ukrainian army in Western Bakhmut. Is it optical deception because of bad lighting?" - writes the journalist.

Earlier, the head of PEC "Wagner" Businessman Yevgeny Prigogin commented on information that in Bakhmut Ukrainian fighters got into the boiler. According to him, it is too early to talk about some boiler, and those who "chatter in advance" create "Wagner" problems. On April 21, Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine Anna Malyar said that the occupiers continue the Bakhmut storm and they manage to move in some areas.
