Russia's defense minister makes a rare visit to Ukraine as his forces close in on Bakhmut, his ministry says.
Sergei Shoigu inspected troops at a forward command post in the eastern Donetsk region, Russia's Defense Ministry said in a Telegram post, adding that Shoigu also presented several awards.
But his visit — marking a rare appearance on the front line from a top Russian military chief — came as his forces appeared on the brink of capturing Bakhmut. It added that attacks had been repelled in the villages of Ivanivske and Bohdanivka, both of which lie less than 5 miles west of Bakhmut’s city center. The capture of those villages, which flank the crucial Bakhmut-Chasiv Yar road on either side, would leave the city on the cusp of total Russian encirclement.
