A Russian Su-25 attack aircraft was shot down in the Bakhmut sector on Monday.

Kyiv Post → Source tone: certain

The city (Bakhmut) is surrounded by dominant heights and hills, which in themselves prevent the advance of the enemy. Construction of engineering barriers (like mines and barbed wire) and the natural landscape make it an 'impregnable fortress,' which will lead to the destruction of the best divisions of the invaders.

Kyiv Post → Source tone: likely

More than 1,000 enemies have already died within the walls of this fortress
