This is Report 385, which is 35 pages, combat only, in condensed format.

Important: Until further notice, we are moving to a condensed format for Situation Reports due to increasing activity in support of the looming Ukrainian offensive. The news cycle is moving too fast to do one report every 24 hours. Up to three Situation Reports will up done a day, and there may be a significant increase in flash reports. We will also do live streams if the situation becomes dynamic. Once the operational tempo slows down, we will move back to full reports.

What's the big story? PMC Wagner continues to attack within Bakhmut while the flanks to their north and south shrink. 

The second story? How little fighting there was today and quiet the Russian milblogger community is. In the past, when they've got this quiet, it's because things are not going well on the battlefield.

Bonus story? That Russian political officer commander? He was leading units in frontline combat, according to the Russian Ministry of Defense. What does it mean?
