“Russia has five times more ammunition, but Ukraine is smarter”

Berlin The Ukrainian army reports progress on the front in Bakhmut and speaks of an initial success. What is the significance of Bachmut for the entire counter-offensive?
The Ukrainian goal is not to win the Battle of Bakhmut, but the war. This is very important. We do not know whether Bakhmut really plays such a large role in military calculations for Ukraine. Only a small circle of insiders knows about the plans for the counter-offensive.

Or, as the Secretary of the Ukrainian Security Council, Oleksiy Danilov, recently said: Most likely, it has not yet been decided where the Ukrainian army will attack next. Whether the focus will continue to be on Bachmut or elsewhere is unclear. It is clear that the Russians must now withdraw troops from other positions at the front and move them to Bakhmut – because they want to avoid humiliation in Bakhmut as much as possible.
