Ukraine defenders not retreating in Bakhmut fight
Viewing imagery from a drone camera overhead, Ukrainian battalion commander warned his men in nearby trenches that Russian forces were advancing across a field toward a patch of trees outside the city of Bakhmut. The leader of the 228th Battalion of the 127th Kharkiv Territorial Defense Brigade then ordered a mortar team to get ready.
