NNA - NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg warned Wednesday that the devastated eastern Ukrainian city of Bakhmut may fall into Russian hands in the coming days following months of intense fighting.
“What we see is that Russia is throwing more troops, more forces and what Russia lacks in quality they try to make up in quantity,” Stoltenberg told reporters in Stockholm on the sidelines of a meeting of EU defense ministers.
“They have suffered big losses, but at the same time, we cannot rule out that Bakhmut may eventually fall in the coming days.” -- AFP
