They haven’t got Bakhmut at all. It remains to be seen if they do finally take Soledar.

The Russians seized Soledar on 9 January. And the Zelensky line is crumbling. Bakhmut is next to fall and I've prepared your talking points for that.

Zelensky probably made the mistake of committing too many troops and equipment to defense in Donetsk. Ukraine was never going to hold on to the Russian-speaking oblasts of the country. They can't handle the Russian army, Wagner group, and Donbass militias all at once. Zelensky would have been better off using those resources in other parts of Ukraine.

And how would you know that? Have you been to Donbas?
