Ukrainian forces have heavily fortified the residential area around Bakhmut, the Institute for the Study of War said.
Ukraine is ramping up its reinforcements in the city of Bakhmut, making a breakthrough for Russia in the hard-hit region appear increasingly unlikely more than 10 months into the war.
Britain's Ministry of Defence said on Tuesday that over the last 10 days, Ukraine has committed significant reinforcements to defend Bakhmut amid intensifying clashes in the town, which is located in Ukraine's eastern Donbas region.

Ukraine is ramping up its reinforcements in the city., the ministry noted that while infantry assaults by the Russian military and the Wagner Group increased in frequency in mid-December, these operations were"poorly supported."
And as Ukraine has ramped up its defense in the bloody battle for Bakhmut, the frequency of Russian assaults have likely reduced from the peak last month, the Defense Ministry assessed, noting that both Ukraine and Russia have suffered high casualties. "Russian offensive operations in the area are now likely being conducted at only platoon or section level," the ministry concluded."It is unlikely Russia will achieve a significant breakthrough near Bakhmut in the coming weeks."
