Battle for Soledar - situation as of 15:00 on 11 Jan 2023
Wagner PMCs are clearing the cauldron on the western outskirts of Soledar, where about 400 AFU soldiers are trapped. Some of them surrender with frostbitten limbs.Seversk and the surrounding villages (Belogorovka and Serebryanka), where the forces of the 81st Airborne Brigade, reinforced by American mercenaries, are concentrated in anticipation of an attack on Kremennaya and Rubizhnoye, will be directly threatened. For this reason, the Ukrainians' intention to launch a counterattack is justified not only because of the loss of image, but also because of the strategic situation. Otherwise, the AFU will be forced to retreat to the second line of defence in the Slavyansk agglomeration. Wall Street Journall spoke with one of the commanders of the Ukrainian troops fighting for Artemovsk (identity is not disclosed).He spoke about heavy losses and said that if this continues, the Ukrainian military "may end there."
