Russian forces are being exhausted near Bakhmut - military expert Kyrychevskyi

He said this on Espreso TV. 

“The Ukrainian military command often uses the term counteroffensive. A counteroffensive is a specific type of military action, which consists in the fact that the enemy must first be worn out on a specific section of the front. It is necessary to exhaust the enemy first, before our troops will go on the offensive and push the invaders back to a long distance, as far as possible from the Ukrainian Armed Forces' defense,” Kyrychevskyi explained.

According to the expert, the Russian enemy is being exhausted near Bakhmut right now.

“The Ukrainian Defense Forces now have the following task - to exhaust the Russians near Bakhmut and slow them down. To destroy the maximum number of occupiers, and then move forward,” Kyrychevskyi added.
