"Not learned the lesson of coal and Kiev": the invaders lost under Avdieva up to 36 BMPs, - isw (maps)
About it reports "Institute of War Study" in the summary of October 12. Analysts refer to the words of a Russian source, which reported that the pace of Russian promotion has slowed down, and now, after significant initial losses in the technique, Russian troops focus on "quality" attacks. Geolovanized footage for October 12 showed that the defense forces destroyed the bridge near Avdiivka, between Yasinusta and Gorlovka, which affects Russian logistics.
In the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, there are probably difficulties with the restoration of the bridge because of its close location to the front line. Geolocated footage indicates that during the offensive near Avdiivka the Russians, most likely, lost armored vehicles for one BTG. The source that is considered reliable in ISW reported that 33 Russian BMPs and 15 tanks were destroyed from October 12 to October 10.
In turn, representatives of Ukraine noted that, even according to the most conservative estimates, the forces of defense destroyed 36 units of armored vehicles of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, incl. Tanks, armored personnel carriers and vehicles. At the same time, "significant losses" on both sides are mentioned.
"These personnel show that Russian armored forces may not have taken lessons from previous offensive operations under the coal in February 2023 or on the outskirts of Kiev in March 2022, when the Armed Forces destroyed the Russian armored vehicle column, which was disorderly," publications. American analysts also noted that, despite the fact that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation had advanced under Avdeeva, the previous estimates of their offensive were exaggerated.
