The Wagner Group claims to have taken control of the town of Klischivka, south of Bakhmut

MADRID, 19 Ene. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The Russian businessman and founder of the Wagner Group, Yevgueni Prigozhin, has assured this Thursday that the members of the group have taken control of the Ukrainian town of Klischivka, of vital importance for the advance of Russian troops towards Bakhmut, in the region from Donetsk.

Prigozhin has indicated in his Telegram account that "he can safely say that members of the Wagner Group have taken over the town, one of the most important Bakhmut suburbs." "It has been completely taken," he said before warning, however, that "the enemy clings to every meter of land."

"Contrary to the comments that speak of the withdrawal of Bakhmut's Ukrainian Army, we deny that this is happening," he pointed out as the Russian forces continue to try to take over this town, which since December has become a symbol of the "indomitability" of the country for the Ukrainian forces.

The city of Bakhmut has become one of the hottest points in the conflict in Ukraine. The kyiv authorities have repeatedly detailed that it is in Bakhmut that Russia is now concentrating almost all its efforts in order to take the town.
