[ Battle of Bakhmut ] Russia attack Bakhmut from 5 direction, including SW; cutting W of Ivanivske

Update from Bakhmut Front: Russian forces is attacking Bakhmut from 5 directions after reports of fighting in the area of the cemetery, which is located in the SW sector of Bakhmut. Fighting is also waging in the North, North-east, East and South Bakhmut.

Location of the meat processing plant is updated, as contradicting reports prompted DPA to relocate if there is an alternate location - and indeed, we have located the meat processing plant in the wrong location; the corrected location is in the NE of Bakhmut.

The Russian forces is pushing closer to Ivaniske, with reports of fighting in the SW outskirt of the town. In the west of Ivanivske, Russian forces pushed through the forest and is just 1km away from the highway.

The decision to push at this point (west of Ivanivske) of the Konstyantynivka-Bakhmut highway, might suggest an intention to intercept the remaining major road that transits Khromove between Bakhmut and Chasiv Yar.
