The village of Blagodatnoye from the north-west of Soledar came under the control of the assault groups of PMC "Wagner"
The village of Blagodatnoye, located southwest of Soledar, came under the control of Russian forces, the assault groups of PMC "Wagner" took the village and began to clean it up. This was announced by the head and founder of the military company Yevgeny Prigozhin on the official TG channel of the "musicians".
Prigozhin, who had repeatedly reproached military correspondents for hasty reports about the capture of one or another settlement, confirmed the capture of Blagodatny near Soledar. According to the information posted on the Wagner PMC TG channel, assault groups are actively cleaning the village from Ukrainian militants remaining there. In addition, Prigozhin posted on the channel an audio recording of the commander of the assault unit, who reported on control over the village.
- said Prigogine.
According to information from military correspondents, during the storming of the village, the remnants of the AFU units defending it simply fled, unable to withstand the pressure of the advancing "musicians". The front line reported that about two tank platoons of the Armed Forces of Ukraine refused to defend the settlement and left in the direction of the Ukrainian rear.
The capture of Blagodatny jeopardizes the encirclement of the village of Krasnoe Gora near Paraskovievka, this is practically the outskirts of Artemovsk (Bakhmut). Now fierce battles are going on in this direction, the "orchestras" are trying to knock out the Vushniks from these settlements and practically encircle the city. The fall of Krasnaya Gora will significantly worsen the situation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces garrison.
Meanwhile, the attack aircraft of the "musicians" are advancing in the other direction, the night before they came close to the village of Sacco and Vanzetti.
