Ukraine: Russia’s Wagner’s claim it captured more than 80 percent of Bakhmut ‘untrue’

Serhiy Cherevatyi, spokesperson for the eastern military command, made the comment to Reuters a day after the head of Russia’s Wagner group said that his forces were advancing in their bid to seize Bakhmut after months of fighting.
