He said this on Espreso TV.

"Over the past few days, the enemy has intensified their crazy artillery shelling. Russians have been striking Bakhmut for several months now. A day feels like a year here, and an hour feels like a day," Nazarenko remarked.

According to him, the enemy is trying to storm along the entire demarcation line.

"The northern and southern outskirts of Bakhmut are especially dangerous. But the enemy is suffering huge losses and Ukraine’s Armed Forces are trying to counterattack and restore lost positions," Nazarenko emphasized.

• According to the AFU General Staff, since the beginning of the full-scale war, Russia has lost 3,423 tanks and 6,703 armored personnel vehicles in Ukraine.

• The British Ministry of Defense reports that the Russian military compensates for large armored vehicles losses in Ukraine with old Soviet tanks and APCs from the 1950s and 1960s
