Wagner Group can only afford to throw soldiers into Bakhmut's 'meat grinder' for another 2 months be

before it runs out of men, Ukrainian commander says

The commander of Ukraine's eastern forces said that time is running out on the Wagner Group's ability to keep up its "human wave" assaults on Bakhmut.

Col. Serhiy Cherevaty told Ukrainian TV on Tuesday that "with the current intensity of them being annihilated, unless they change their tactics, I think we're talking two months," according to a translation by The New Voice of Ukraine.

The outlet noted that this was Cherevaty's personal opinion.

"Being a terrorist organization, they [Wagner] use coercion methods," Cherevaty added, saying that its troops fight "under threat of execution."
