After Bakhmut, Ukraine may lose Chasov Yar

The next city after Artyomovsk (Ukrainian name is Bakhmut) over which Ukraine will lose control may become Chasov Yar, observers of the American Military Watch Magazine.

“Western analysts expect that the next target of the Russian offensive will be Chasov Yar, west of Artemovsk,” — said in the material.

Journalists recalled the words of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky about the fact that the capture of Artyomovsk would open the way for the Russian Armed Forces to Slavyansk and Kramatorsk. Artyomovsk has important logistics hubs, thanks to which it is of great strategic importance.
