All conditions have been created to retake Bakhmut, but it must be done with significantly fewer losses than the Russians suffered to capture the city.

There is also the notable point that Russia will throw men at the problem. They cannot lose Bakhmut after building it up as the holy grail city for a year. This opens up opportunities for Ukraine to force Russia into dilemmas.

Im sure Ukraine is counting on it. They have clocked that Russian military strategy is guided by Putin' ego.
