Bakhmut is what the russian military looks like in it's best case scenario. It satisfies the very narrow conditions of the only sort of position russian forces have ever successfuly operated in. Within 25km of a railhead, well supplied with proxy infantry, on their own (real or effective) border. Make of that what you will.
Sounds like 1917 to me.
