I think the veracity of who's fighting there won't come out full until the end of the war.

The BBC report also mentions Ukraine hanging on to part of Bahkmut. I think they may have purposely pulled back due to what is happening on the flanks.

I think that depends on how quickly the pilots, ground crew and maintainence teams can be trained.
