The Ukrainian city of Bakhmut has become a "slaughter-fest" for Russian solders, a senior US official has said.
Chairman of the US joint chiefs of staff General Mark Milley said Russian forces have failed to make any profess in or around Bakhmut.
Milley had been asked at a House Armed Services Committee hearing on Wednesday (March 29) about Russia's attempts at trying to capture Bakhmut after months of trying.
