Fighting under Avdiivka: Russians apply up to hundreds of drones daily - the Armed Forces

According to the spokesman of the united Press Center of Defense forces of Tavriysk, Alexander Plan, the number of drones is very large, so Ukrainian air defense is not always able to knock them down. In the Avdeevsky direction, the invaders use many drones of different types. This was reported by a spokesman for the United Tavriysky Defense Press Center Alexander Planon on the air of the channel "We - Ukraine". "The enemy applies daily depending on the weather conditions from 50 to 100 drones.

Approximately 60% of them are FPV-arose," the spokesman said. Oleksandr Planon added that the enemy also uses UAVs that dismiss the ammunition of different types. In addition, reconnaissance drones are constantly flying. "Our aircraft knocks them down, but many of them are not always able to knock down everything," the plate said.

The spokesman said that last day the invaders began the third wave of active actions in the framework of the offensive in the Avdeevsky direction, which respectively led to a significant increase in their losses both in living strength and in technology. "The invaders have used a considerable amount of armored equipment. The APU completely destroyed three tanks and seven other armored vehicles. A lot of hostile equipment was damaged," the plate said.

According to the Armed Forces, the total losses of the enemy in the live force, dead and wounded, in the Donetsk region in the operating area of ​​the Tavriysky Defense Forces amounted to 501 persons, most of them - in the Avdeevsky direction. More than 40,000 invaders are now concentrated in the Avdeevsky direction. It is mainly motorized fire units, but there are artillery and tank units. Fighting is currently underway under Avdiivka and our warriors are holding defense.

In addition, the offensive actions of the enemy are complicated by weather conditions. Now the leaves from the trees have already fallen and snow has fallen, so it has become more difficult to mask the enemy. Therefore, when they are detected by Ukrainian aero -intelligence, the Russians resort to some tricks, namely pretending to be dead, or try to hide under the bodies of previously liquidated Russian gunts.

Recall that the defense of the Armed Forces in Avdiivka does not allow the enemy to achieve its goals. According to the spokesman of the Ukrainian Volunteer Army "South" by Sergiy Bratchuk, the capture of Avdiivka is a political decision of the Kremlin. However, the defense forces restrain the enemy in this direction. Earlier, Focus wrote that the Russians resort to new tactics because of the great losses near Avdiivka.
