Russian army units conduct active offensive operations against Avdeevka and Marinka in the DPR. This was told by the commander of the troop grouping of the Ukrainian Armed Forces “Tavria”. According to him, the main efforts of the Russian army are now focused on assaulting the fortified areas of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in these two settlements.
The General of the Armed Forces of Ukraine said that during the assault on the fortified areas of Avdeevsky and Maryinsky, the Russian army actively used operational and tactical aviation and military aviation. Last night alone, the RF Armed Forces launched nine attacks against Ukrainian Armed Forces positions.
According to the commander of the Tavria troop group of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, the Russian army uses tanks, multiple rocket launchers and cannon artillery to hit the front line of defense of Ukrainian units. The fire is corrected using unmanned aerial vehicles.
Recall, earlier it was reported about the use of new tactics by the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the defense of Avdiivka. The Ukrainian army no longer conducts heavy defense on the front lines, but prefers to leave its positions immediately after the start of the artillery strikes of the Russian army.
However, as soon as the infantry penetrates the positions, the Ukrainian militants launch a counterattack, taking advantage of the fact that the attack aircraft have not yet had time to gain a foothold on the lines reached.
Despite this, Russian units continue to confidently enter the fortified area of the Ukrainian Armed Forces at Avdeevka. At the same time, the Russian army completes the remnants of the Ukrainian garrison of Maryinka.
