Fighting in Soledar and Bakhmut in eastern Ukraine is the"bloodiest" of the war so far, Ukrainian presidential adviser Mykhaylo Podolyak told AFP on Wednesday .
"There's a lot of blood, a lot of artillery duelling, a lot of close contact fighting, especially today in Soledar," Podolyak added, describing the battered salt-mining town as the"hottest spot in the war". "If in Mariupol 90 per cent of deaths were civilians, in Soledar and Bakhmut it's soldiers," he said.
"For us there are losses, significant losses. For them these losses are simply extraordinary," Podolyak added.Podolyak said Russia had deployed its best army units as well as the Wagner fighting group for the battle but that even a victory would not change the course of the war."For us, it's a bridgehead to advance towards Donetsk," Podolyak said, referring to the main city and pro-Russian separatist stronghold in the eponymous Donetsk region of eastern Ukraine.
