According to the latest update map of the Russian war blogger Rybar, the #UkrainianArmy has liberated the entire heights around #Klishchiivka and reached the outskirts of this strategic town of #Bakhmut direction .
He also says Russians in the town can no longer stop Ukrainians
DeepStateMAP (48.5228, 37.9524 @ 2023-07-18 23:22) shows similar FLOT&FEBA.
Rybar has already invented Ukrainian advances that were later heroically repelled, with no source mentioning anything of note happening. That said, this meshes with what ISW posted yesterday or two days ago about advances around Bakhmut hills, so let’s wait and see
Glad to see Ukraine continue to make incremental gains. War isn’t usually fast.
