The Ukrainian military has managed to stabilise the situation in the area of Bakhmut, although the fighting continues, Serhiy Cherevatyy, spokesman for the Eastern Group of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, ha said on the air of the news telethon.

He noted that the situation in Bakhmut is difficult.

"Yesterday there were 18 assaults along the entire Bakhmut front, today there were 17. Before that, there were 35 to 50 or more. However, this requires more detailed verification and analysis. Perhaps the enemy is manoeuvring reserves. The enemy is still firing in the Bakhmut sector, 268 attacks in total," he noted.

According to him, over the day Ukraine's defenders destroyed a tank, several pieces of artillery, two drones, a company command and observation post and 10 field ammunition depots in the Bakhmut sector.

On 25 March, Cherevatyy said that the number of engagements in the Bakhmut sector had decreased in recent days.
