Bakhmut in eastern Ukraine has become the symbol of the Ukrainian resistance. Despite months of intense fighting and likely tens of thousands of deaths, Ukraine is still holding on. Some in the West have criticized the Ukrainian leadership saying the town is no longer worth the cost in human life it claims. DW correspondent Max Zander went to the frontline to find out directly from the soldiers fighting for Bakhmut.

Everyone keeps talking about Bakhmut not really being worth defending anymore. They always fail to realize that if they fall back to another city, then that city will be massively targeted too. And so on and so on. That also makes more land they would have to push through in a counter offensive and more land Russians will have mined.

The reality is Ukraine has substantial defensive lines that have been constructed on the hills behind Bakhmut. These would be a more advantageous position to fend off Russian forces and defending here wouldn’t jeopardize any city. My assumption isn’t that Ukraine wants to hold onto Bakhmut at all costs, they’re just trying to make it look that way. This ties up a lot more Russian troops that otherwise could be deployed across the frontline. Perhaps Bakhmut holds still because it’s a great diversion to maintain until Ukraine launches its rumoured late spring/summer offensive. Ukrainian airborn troops have just finished their training on British Challenger tanks and Leopards, and they’re wrapping up training on American Abrams. Meanwhile the first batch of Western tanks have arrived from Germany and Portugal, and many more are in transit. It seems things are in motion for something big in the coming months.

By defending Bakmut, Ukraine is keeping 3 more Frontline's from Opening. RuZZia has more Soldiers. Therefore, they can attack more Fronts then Ukraine. By pinning RuZZia's forces in Bakmut, they are bottleneck-ing more Resources & Soldiers in 1 area. Bakmut is essential but not the only Frontline. This began in Crimea & will end in Crimea & with Pufin the Poisoner swinging in the Hague or off his balcony. SLAVA UKRAINE! UNTIL IT IS DONE, WE SHALL ENDURE!

Unlike in other wars where it's mostly the young doing all the fighting, I'm struck by how wide the age range is of the combatants on either side are in this war - on the Ukrainian side especially.

My understanding is that it is more important for Russia to hold it to help with their logistics, it won't help Ukraine at all to hold it but it will indirectly help them if they prevent Russian logistics from making use of the road system.

You can see the stark contrast in how the soldiers in Ukraine are feeling compared to even just months ago when they liberated Kherson. They look defeated and worn down. You don't see the fire in their eyes like you did back then. They may say they still believe in what they are doing, but how much of that is just for the cameras? These guys really need another big win or things are going to get even worse for Ukraine soon.

Turn of RT and open your eyes. Anyway, who cares about what you think and say?
