Whichever news outlet you look at, there seems to be no good news for Ukraine. The fall of Chasiv Yar is less than a few weeks away.
Chasiv Yar is another city that will lose it's strategic importance right after the Russians capture it.Russian victory in Chasiv Yar would jeopardize ‘last stronghold’ of Donetsk region, Ukrainians say
A Russian victory in the Ukrainian-controlled city of Chasiv Yar, currently the target of a sustained military offensive, would jeopardize the security of the remaining Ukrainian-held cities in Donetsk, a senior Ukrainian official told POLITICO on Tuesday.
“If the Russian occupiers manage to capture this city, they will have the opportunity to launch an offensive on Kostiantynivka, Druzhkivka, Kramatorsk and Sloviansk," said Lieutenant Colonel Nazar Voloshyn, a Ukrainian army spokesperson.
"These cities are the last stronghold of Donetsk region, which is under the control of Ukraine,” he added.
Chasiv Yar is a strategically important city located 10 kilometers from Bakhmut. It is situated on commanding heights, advantageous for defense and gives control over the surrounding area. It is currently under the full control of Kyiv but also under sustained attack from Russian troops.
