The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation managed to get into Ukrainian defense: the situation for the Armed Forces worsened in Avdiivka - Air Force

According to him, despite the fact that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation began the assault of Avdiivka in October last year, at the beginning of the operation they were able to move a few kilometers from the flanks, but the main task of leaving the main route of supply and environment of the city could not be done. The offensive was tied, although attacks from different directions did not weaken. "At the beginning of the week, the situation in the Avdiivka area worsened.

The Russian army managed to bite into Ukrainian defense from the south, extracting the Armed Forces from strongholds in the" royal hunt "and tied up in the southern outskirts of the city. This part of Avdiivka is built up who are gradually turning into ruins under the fire of artillery and cannot help long for those who are defending, "Ilya Abishhev said. He added that the so -called "gray" zone increases due to constant fighting.

"According to the participants of the events, Ukrainians managed to hold successful counterattacks in the south of Avdiivka and to push the Russian parts that are coming. Both sides pull up reserves, fierce battles continue, talk about their results now early. The key importance for the defense of Avdiivka is the" 9th quarter "Where Russian assault units are trying to break through.

It is a complex of 9-storey buildings, the capture of which will be equivalent to the precipitation of the ruling heights," the expert said. On the flanks of the Avdi fortress, the situation, according to him, remains unchanged, attacks and counterattacks go with a variable success, and the line of combustion, if changing, is insignificant.

Ilya Abishev suggests that the command of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will still try to develop success in the south of Avdiivka and may make a new attempt to massive storming of the southern outskirts. As reported in the General Staff of the Armed Forces on January 26, in the area of ​​responsibility, "Tavriya" in the Avdeevsky direction, Ukrainian defenders continue to restrain the enemy who does not leave attempts to surround Avdiivka.

The forces of defense during the last day repelled 6 attacks in the areas of settlements Novobakhmutivka, Stepovo, Avdiivka and 10 more attacks near Pervomaisky and Nevelsky Donetsk region. We will remind that according to the speaker of the 47th OMBR Dmitry Lazutkin, for Ukrainian defenders who are at the hottest points of the front, the main difficulty is constant internal tension and moral fatigue.
