Fighters of Russia's Wagner mercenary group have captured two more areas of the Ukrainian city of Bakhmut, Russia's Defense Ministry said on Saturday.
"On the Donetsk direction, the fiercest fighting has been continuing in the city of Artyomovsk," the ministry said in a daily statement, referring to the settlement by its Soviet-era name.
"Wagner assault units successfully advanced, capturing two areas on the northern and southern outskirts of the city," it said.
"The remaining Ukrainian troops have been deliberately destroying city infrastructure facilities and residential blocks in Artyomovsk upon retreat to slow down the advance of our troops," he added.
