On the southern flank of Bakhmut, combined Russian units successfully stormed the heights near Kleshcheevka. As a result, the Russian Armed Forces captured the strategically important height 235.7 to the north of the village.
Controlling this position allows constant surveillance of all approaches to Kleshcheevka, as well as landings to the north in the direction of Krasny (Ivanovsky). The formations of the 5th Brigade of the AFU are unable to counter this due to the complete dominance of the Russian Armed Forces.
