I think Bakhmut is realistically in danger now, as Russia seems to be putting almost all their eggs in this basket. Russia is losing some ground up north, and for the most part the rest of the lines aren't moving besides the greater Bakhmut area. For the past few months, those who know best have been saying Bakhmut won't fall anytime soon. That language has recently changed, and now they talk about how there are layers of defensive lines behind Bakhmut. It's hard to predict what will happen next, but I think it's possible Ukraine will withdraw soon, if the northern and southern flanks are compromised.
