Quote: "Ukraine's east remains the main direction of the aggressor's attack. The enemy focused the main attack on the Bakhmut front, especially in the area of Soledar, where the battles are ongoing. Ukrainian units continue to hold the defence in the city and its outskirts."

Background: 

The Russian invaders had already set the mass production of medals "for the capture of Soledar", and their soldiers are already being decorated with these "awards", despite that fighting for the Ukrainian city is still going on.
