Our command and staff are properly planning the defence. Due to the wisdom, purposefulness and unconventionality of actions by our commanders and soldiers, they can bleed the enemy out and break his morale."

Background: Yevgeny Prigozhin, the founder of the Wagner PMC, is trying to create pretexts to explain why his mercenaries cannot complete the encirclement of Bakhmut, according to a report by the Institute for the Study of War (ISW).
