We will not surrender Bakhmut, help is already coming to us —Ukrainian soldier Lysenko

He said this on the air of the Espreso TV channel.

"It is constantly difficult under Bakhmut, the boys are holding on and holding Bakhmut. Bakhmut has already turned into Stalingrad. We will not surrender the city, the enemy will not pass any further! The enemy in the east of Bakhmut has had some successes, they are trying to take the city into a ring. But now we are receiving a lot of help, that's why in a day or two we will repel all enemy attacks, and we will get back to a distance of 10 km from Bakhmut," Lysenko emphasized.

According to the fighter, the city is geographically stretched, and the center and key enemy locations are still far away.

"There is nothing rosy in the Avdiivka - Donetsk - Bakhmut direction, but there is nothing critical either. Despite the frost, in two sets of thermal vests, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are holding Bakhmut. We are annoyed by the enemy's infantry, which pointlessly marches and wears out. Our MLRS worked hard and repelled their desire to accumulate manpower near Bakhmut. Minus 150-200 occupiers only in the Bakhmut direction," Lysenko added.
