The Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Alexander Syrsky, issued an order to evacuate the city of Avdeyevka. "In view of the fighting situation around Avdeyevka, I have made the decision to evacuate the city and go on the defensive," Syrsky said on social media. ”
Ukrainian units have been withdrawn from Avdeyevka, according to the Ukrainian news agency UNAN, the commander of the Tavria Division of the Ukrainian military, Alexander Tarnavsky.
Ukraine gave the order to retreat.
Ukrainian forces are suffering from a severe ammunition shortage in Avdeyevka, which could signal a rout on the Ukrainian military front, a senior U.S. defense official said Friday.
Avdeyevka, located in the north of the city of Donetsk; This is the most fortified area of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. To the northwest of the city of Donetsk, the region where the two countries are most heavily fighting, Russia has intensified its attacks in recent weeks.
Russian troops are encircling from all directions, and Ukrainian troops are facing a "hellish" attack.
A Ukrainian drone found the hiding place of Russian servicemen in a pile of wreckage, surrounded by satellite-like scorched earth, craters and dry trees.
This happened when another unmanned aircraft carrying a miniature missile approached. And then the next one. Then, there was another one. In the end, the Russian army was wiped out.
The drone said, "We are attacking the occupiers." "This controller is a Ukrainian army whose mission is to seize the key city of Avdiivka from Moscow.
This was a great success for the U** operators, but, in Ukraine, it is becoming increasingly scarce, and Moscow is devoting all its resources to ruined and now almost abandoned towns.
Alexander Syrsky, Ukraine's new military governor, and Ukraine's defense minister, Rustym Umerov, visited the front-line troops in Avdiivka, northwest of the city of Donetsk, this week and clearly recognized the significance of Avdiivka.
"The combat situation is very complicated, the pressure is great, and we are doing everything to prevent enemy troops from entering the territory of our country, holding their positions," Syrsky said. He sent one of Ukraine's most sophisticated teams, the "Independent Assault Brigade", which was praised for its bravery in the encirclement of the **mut and launched an offensive against Russian units.
"We have made a set of important decisions in order to increase our combat effectiveness and contain the enemy's offensive," said Syrsky, while inspecting the battle line. ”
Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelenskyy pledged on Tuesday that he would focus on the eastern front, saying that the newly appointed military leader had come to the place to help him deal with the difficulties faced by the local army.
In his evening speech, Zelensky said: "The existing problems have been dealt with, the army is equipped, supported, commanded and controlled, and we will strengthen it with drones and electronic warfare, and strengthen the command position." 」
However, only a few days later, due to the continuous Russian attacks, even the reinforcements described it as a purgatory.
Our brigades are engaged in operations and are in a harsh environment that we cannot imagine. On Thursday, the deputy commander of the separate assault brigade, Maxim Ruolin, said: "The battle of Avdiivka was even more tragic than the most tragic battle of the Battle of **Mutter." ”
As happened in Bakhmut last year, in order to achieve success, Russia poured out of its nest and launched all its attacks on Avdiivka, bombarding towns with aircraft and artillery, and sending armored vehicles and infantry for land offensives after land.
Ukrainian servicemen call this town a "meat grinder".
Russia suffered a big loss in the attack, and this cost is enough to make other countries' military forces regroup and reflect. But Moscow seems to think that such a sacrifice is still worth it, given the numerical superiority.
Wakabayashi replied, "The enemy army is huge, and it is present from all directions.
Russia's attack on Avdiivka follows an incredible Ukrainian counterattack this summer, during which Kyiv has been hit by Western countries. Deliveries of arms and financial relief from Europe have been delayed by the notorious bureaucracy of Brussels and some resistance from the Hungarian side, but Kyiv is most concerned about delays from Washington.
The United States has been Ukraine's largest donor since its founding, but its continued support for the Ukrainian army has caused disagreement among members of Congress. Jens Staudenberg said that the reluctance of the Republican Party behind Trump to the White House puts Putin in a favorable position with Russia.
Stoltenberg said in an interview on Thursday: "We can see the consequences of the failure of the United States to make decisions.
Despite appearing inferior in strength and firepower, the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade insisted on carrying out **, claiming that the Russian forces had suffered heavy losses.
The media cannot confirm whether what they say is true or false. However, even if this statement is true, the brigade understands that since Russia is still actively moving troops on a rotational basis and throwing new troops and equipment into towns and cities, it has enough troops to compensate for its losses.
The commander of the 3rd brigade, Andri? Biletsky said: "Our fighters showed unprecedented bravery. ”
List of outstanding writers Trump: The rescue of Ukraine has reduced the United States to a joke.
Former US leader Donald Trump called it stupid for the United States to invest so much money in Ukraine, and NATO members scoffed at it. He recently put forward a proposal to borrow money instead of donating money to Kyiv.
We, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, should pay for this. Trump told New York's ** that they would pay the price. He referred to the military and financial support provided to Ukraine by the United States and its allies, saying the United States would invest $200 billion.
Speaking of other NATO members on Thursday, Mr. Trump said: "They make fun of the stupidity of the United States of America, and every time someone says it, we give us $60 billion." "Look at the joke. They take us for fools. ”
On Wednesday, in South Carolina, Mr. Trump told his supporters that future bailouts for Ukraine should be borrowed money, not gifts. He said. "Lend the money. If they can, they will give back to us. Otherwise, you don't have to pay us back. Trump began thinking about the idea of borrowing money a week ago, and stated in his "real society" that such loans would have "good terms."
Trump's proposed aid package was proposed by Lindsay Graham of South Carolina, who said Monday"Giving the debt-ridden United States a chance to recoup its funds"。
One of the options recently proposed by Lindsay Graham is to convince Republicans to lend him up to 60 billion worth of Ukrainian ** Zelensky, instead of giving it to himself. Journalist Tucker Carlson tweeted on Thursday. However, Ukraine will never repay its debts, just to send more unknown ** to this region, delay the unreachable peace agreement, and kill more Ukrainians who have been forced to join the army, which seems even more hypocritical.
