The battle for the Ukrainian city of Bakhmut has become one of the longest and fiercest of the Ukrainian war. The destruction caused by the clash between the forces defending the city and the Russian Wagner mercenary group that surrounds it can be seen with the naked eye of satellite, according to images distributed by the US company Maxar Technologies.
Although it is not clear who controls the city, since both sides have given contradictory versions with the president of Russia, Vladimir Putin, congratulating his troops for the capture of the city and the Ukrainian president, Volodimir Zelensky, denying that they have lost control. of the area, what is certain is the destruction that the battle has caused in the city.
Where once you could see residential areas with parks, now Maxar's satellite images show only collapsed roofs and noise. And the same happens with infrastructures, university or industrial areas.
