Once again, the center of the Russia-Ukraine war has shifted to Avdeyevka, as proposed by Phoenix TV in a report published on February 17. Ukraine's new commander, Sersky, is said to have ordered the garrison to withdraw from the city, while Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu told Putin that they had taken full control of Avdeyevka. This news shook the whole world and was an important reason why Ukraine's defense system in the region has been hit hard.
Although the Ukrainians have retreated on a large scale, the fighting in Avdeyevka continues. ** people intensified their offensive in an attempt to wipe out the besieged Ukrainian forces. The Russian Air Force sent Su-34 fighter-bombers equipped with FAB missiles to launch a fierce attack on Ukraine's defensive fortresses. At the same time, the 90 tank units of the Russian Guards also sent their elite tanks, under the cover of T-72B3 and T-80 tanks, launched a fierce attack on Avdeyevka. Russia, on the other hand, used bazookas and bazookas to launch a fierce attack on the remnants of the Ukrainian army.
In this battle, the 3rd Assault Brigade of the "Azov Battalion" tried to break through, but was hit by heavy Soviet artillery fire and suffered a major **. In the footage, a soldier can be seen in a cellar at the Avdeyevka coking plant, despairing, saying that they will never be able to escape. They were in a very dangerous situation, either dying in battle or surrendering. In addition, the Russian side released a video in which several fighters of the 3rd Assault Brigade of the "Azov Battalion" were released, including a company commander. The commander of this company said that they came to Avdeyevka in the name of reinforcements, but due to the continuation of the war, they suffered huge losses and not many survived.
VV It is necessary to note that starting in 2024, Ukraine has built a number of bunkers and fortresses in its occupied Donetsk, with a lot of arms reserves. However, the ** people don't give them much time to fight back at all, they just bombard them with powerful shells. According to reports, the Russians dropped more than 40 Fab-500, Fab-1500 and FAB-3000 in one day on their positions in Avdeyevka. If the FAB-500 is unable to destroy Ukrainian military equipment, Russia will use more powerful missiles.
When the Russians took full control of Avdeyevka, they intended to rebuild Donetsk's airfield, rail and road system, thereby significantly enhancing the logistics system of the Russian army. At the same time, the four fortress areas built by Ukraine around the city of Donetsk, Maryinka and Afeeevka, have all fallen, and only the Pisky region and Derzinsk are still holding out. Under the strong attack of the ** people, the fortifications established by the Ukrainians on the front line are facing a serious threat.
In February, Zelensky eagerly asked for help from the West, saying that the Ukrainian army lacked a large number of them, especially artillery and long-range ones, and asked the United States for help. However, although the U.S. Senate passed a $95 billion foreign aid plan, House Speaker Johnson did not mean to vote, which means that Ukraine is likely not to receive a new round of U.S. military support. However, Zelensky has signed a long-standing security agreement with Germany and France, and is also supported by some troops, which may reduce the enormous pressure on Ukrainian forces on the front lines.
The battle for Avdeyevka is over, but the dark clouds of the Russian-Ukrainian war still hang over the sky. Both countries are preparing for war, and the eyes of the world are also focused here. We hope that the contradictions between the two sides of the strait can be resolved in a peaceful way, and there will be no more contradictions.
