Today quite a few information came out from the direction of Avdijiwa
Here the most intense clashes take place in the central part of the region
The main nonsubjective of Ukrainian forces is to carry out a gradual, controlled withdrawal to the next defensive line in the region, which is located along the river.
The withdrawal must be gradual to prevent Russian forces from gaining dangerous momentum and to guarantee the stableness of the front line.
In turn, the main goal of Russian forces is to usage Ukrainian withdrawal by gaining momentum and utilizing it to break another defence and break the front line before Ukrainians full dig into it.
Ukrainian command understands this, which is why Ukrainian soldiers continued to hold respective settlements south of the river.
In addition to stopping the momentum of the Russian attack, the repelling of Russian attacks on these settlements was essential to guarantee that any soldier who maintained fortifications in the fields withdrew safely.
The most serious difficulty for Ukrainian soldiers in these villages was Russian bombing, as fortifications were built north of the river alternatively than south of it.
However, Ukrainian reports indicated that the demolition of the A-50 radar aircraft temporarily suspended Russian air operations.
The Ukrainian Chief Military Intelligence Board reported that Russian forces immediately ordered 5 Su 35 aircraft to abort ongoing combat missions, any of which included conducting raids before Awdijiwka.
This improvement forced the Russians to trust solely on ground attacks.
Based on the fighting materials in the region, regular infantry attacks in tiny troops of up to 10 people did not work well due to the fact that Ukrainians deployed snipers to control the fields
Ukrainian snipers have published many recordings showing how they hunt Russian infantry in tree lines that attempted to carry out night attacks.
After a fewer days, Russian forces decided to make any adjustments and began supporting the infantry with tanks and armored combat vehicles.
The main goal was to rapidly shorten the distance and deploy the infantry just outside the village threshold.
The biggest problem with Russian mechanized assault units was mines.
Interestingly, Russian forces themselves sharpened this problem erstwhile they began to deploy mines at a distance to complicate the withdrawal of Ukrainians in the last days of the conflict of Awdijiwka.
The distant deployment of mines came much besides late, as the Russians did not anticipate the Ukrainians to decide to retreat in due time, so it yet caused more harm to the Russians.
Geolocalised combat recordings show how many Russian armored combat vehicles detonate on the mine in front of Lastokyne, expanding the stunning losses suffered in Awdijiwka.
Interestingly, during a fresh conversation, Russian defence minister Sergei Szojgu told Putin that Awdijiwka was occupied with minimal losses
This message was not well received even in Russian media.
A prominent Russian military volunteer Andrei Morozov published a long speech in which he accused Russian generals of sacrificing thousands of soldiers in vain to make their military careers and claimed that sixteen 1000 Russian personnel died in combat during Russian offensive operations in Awdijiwka.
Morozov rapidly removed the post, as he was reportedly approached by a colonel who threatened to cut off supplies of ammunition to his unit
The next day after the post was removed, he reportedly committed suicide.
Despite massive losses, the attacks continued, and after carrying out tens of mechanized attacks, the road to Lastokyne was fundamentally mined, and intense fighting broke out inside the village.
When the Ukrainians finished withdrawing from the fortifications in the fields, Ukrainian soldiers left Lastokyne, and the fighting moved to the next village on the line – Tonenko.
In order to weaken Russian offensive capabilities and reduce the strength of attacks, Ukrainian forces carried out an attack on HIMARS on Russian bases in the Donetsk region
You've most likely heard of a hit on a Russian base close Volnoche, where at least 3 military companies were stationed.
But what you most likely didn't hear is that the Ukrainians utilized a fresh maneuver to maximize their losses.
The Ukrainian crews of HIMARS reportedly fired their first bullet with a shrapnel-shaping warhead, and after 15 seconds fired multiple rounds with clusterheads.
