Battle For Soledar | Huge Wagner Victory In Eastern Ukraine Or Has Russia Walked Into A Trap?

Russian forces recently claimed victory in the Ukrainian town of Soledar, but experts say it may ultimately prove to be a trap for Moscow. However, Ukrainian officials claim their forces have not left the town and continue to fight. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky also said that the fight for Soledar and other towns in the east is ongoing. While the Russian claims haven’t been independently verified, Moscow’s correspondents have shared geolocations of their troops in Soledar. Ukraine claims that any Russian gains in the eastern region would be equal to a “pyrrhic victory”. A Russian advance in Ukraine would be welcome news for the Kremlin following a string of embarrassing setbacks. However, experts say that Russia’s isolated offensive on Bakhmut makes next to no strategic sense, apart from stretching Ukraine’s reserves. #Soledar #Russia #Putin #Zelensky #Ukraine #Donetsk #Kremlin #Bakhmut #WorldNews n18oc_world n18oc_crux CRUX is your daily video news guide to the big events tha
