Analysts noted that positional battles lasted near the Avdeevsky Coke Plant, Stepov, Novobakhmutivka, Sevever, Pervomaisky and Nevelsky. Also, the Ukrainian military observer Konstantin Mashovets claimed January 11 that the armed forces of the Russian Federation were preparing for the next attempt to "decisive storming" Avdiivka, trying to bypass the city from the north.
According to him, units of the Russian 114th OMSBR (1st Corps of the DNR Army) and the 15th Separate Motorized Rifle Brigade (2nd Corps of the LNR Army) can try to step between Stepov and Avdiivsky Coke. Avdiivka - Orlovka. Konstantin Mashovets believes that this plan is dubious, because the previous attacks on the cokemic plant were unsuccessful.
Instead, ISW analysts do not observe any signs that will indicate that the enemy will be able to make significant significant progress near Avdiivka if a new wave of intensive land storms in the near future. We will remind, on January 11 the military-political observer of the group "Information resistance" Alexander Kovalenko stated that in the near future Russians can start a new offensive in February. According to him, the enemy wants to try to fully occupy Avdiivka.
