The largest storms since 2014: NYT on the offensive of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in eastern Ukraine

Russian troops do not spare strength to storm Kupjansk, Avdiivka and Lyman. Ukrainian officers and teams say that the enemy has significantly strengthened their strength. While the world media focused on the war in Israel of the Russian Federation began large -scale operations in eastern Ukraine. The invaders are trying to step on Avdiivka, Kupjansk and estuary. About it reports The Washington Post. Increasing the storms of Russian troops in strategic settlements forces Ukraine to defend.

Ukrainian officers and commanders say that the Russian Federation significantly strengthened their forces and created new crews and units of "Storm Z". Lieutenant General Oleksandr Syrsky, commander of the Land Forces, said the situation had aggravated. The Russian Federation plans to capture Kupjansk to enter the Oskil River. The invaders have been pressed for weeks, but have no significant success. "They accurately attached more tanks here, their artillery is fired almost continuously.

They are fighting in the same way during the Second World War. They send their people like meat shots again and again," says Eugene fighter, who holds defense in Sinkivka. The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation change tactics and learn from mistakes, but their efforts may not be enough. "Ukrainian troops retain a significant defensive presence in this direction, and it is very unlikely that Russian land troops will reach a significant operational breakthrough," - said in British intelligence.

Another place of tension is Avdiivka. The city has been the target of the Russian Federation since 2014. Now the settlement is one of the most well -fortified places on the front. But the head of the VCA Vitaliy Barabash says that new assaults of the invaders are unprecedented. The Russian Federation has drawn so much power that it was not for almost 10 years of war. "The maximum number of equipment used in 2014, 2015, even in 2017, when they tried to come to Avdiivka, was about 20-30 units.

Even at the beginning of a full-scale war, if not mistaken, no more than 30-35 units were used But on October 10, they sent about 100 units and about 2000 fighters. It was only the first day, "Barabash says. In addition, the occupiers are mercilessly bombarded the city and its surroundings with aviation and artillery. If the Russian Federation captures Avdiivka, according to the head of the VCA, the front from Toretsk to Marinka may change.
