TxRover Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Reports Ukrainian forces have blown a bridge in eastern Bakhmut, possibly in preparation for a retreat. Ukrainian denials of any planned retreat released. Wagner has confirmed it has stopped recruiting prisoners. Russian military is now directly recruiting prisoners, and using them in human wave style assaults backed by small Assault Troop squads who move in behind the prisoners to consolidate gains, if any. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
