The head of PMC Wagner said that Bakhmut is “the central point of the Eastern Front and a serious logistics center.”
The founder of the Wagner PMC, Yevgeny Prigozhin, explained why his fighters are trying to capture the city of Bakhmut in the Donetsk region within a month. According to the press service of the leader of the “Wagnerites”, Prigozhin said that Bakhmut is “the central point of the Eastern Front and a serious logistics center.”
“The feature of Bakhmut lies in its unique historical and geographical defensive capabilities, which include, first of all, the division of the city into several parts by water barriers. The second feature is that the suburb of Bakhmut is a complex settlements that created a single defense system. The third is a unique landscape: cliffs and high natural tunnels,” said the message.
At the same time, Putin’s supporter called the Soledar and Bakhmut mine system, which is actually a “network of underground cities,” the icing on the cake. He noted that not only people can be found in this network at a depth of 80-100 meters, but also tanks and infantry fighting vehicles can move. In addition, according to him, stockpiles of weapons from the First World War are stored there.
Recall that a few days earlier, the White House said that “the interest in Bakhmut is due to monetary motives.” Prigozhin wanted to acquire the largest salt deposit in Europe.
