The general of Ukraine's ground forces suggested this week that the Russian occupiers in Bakhmut were running out of options after claiming control of the shattered city, saying:"The enemy is caught in a trap."

A Howitzer self-propelled M109 artillery piece is fired by members of Ukraine's 17th Tank Brigade at Russian positions near the occupied eastern Ukrainian city of Bakhmut, amid Ukraine's counteroffensive in early July, 2023.But using the big guns carries risk for the troops operating them so close to Russian positions. Every shell they fire also sends a big plume of smoke into the air, which could give away their position to Russian drones hovering in the area, and draw return fire.
