On the battlefield in Ukraine, the situation is changing dramatically. According to the latest reports, the Ukrainian army experienced a difficult retreat in the Avadiivka region. Due to the lack of support from armored vehicles, Ukrainian soldiers had to cross dirt roads in the muddy countryside on foot, trying to break out of the encirclement of the Russian army. The difficulty of this operation can be imagined, especially at night, and the evacuation of at least seven or eight thousand soldiers from dozens of positions surrounded by Russian troops is an extremely difficult task. During the retreat, the Ukrainian army had to abandon a large amount of heavy equipment and supplies in order to speed up the march and reduce the risk of being pursued by the Russian army.

At the same time, the Russian army is clearly not going to let go of this opportunity to pursue. They quickly switched tactics, fully entered the pursuit mode, and used the fire net to block the retreat of the Ukrainian army. The Russian army has dropped thousands of North Korean artillery shells, hundreds of FPV suicide drones and more than 200 FAB-500 gliding guided bombs to carry out heavy bombardment of the Ukrainian army. Their goal is clear: to blow up urban areas, factories, roads, and even country roads in order to cut off the retreat routes of the Ukrainian army. This carpet bombing tactic has made the retreat of the Ukrainian army more difficult, and at the same time has brought great suffering to the Ukrainian people.
Under this overwhelming firepower, the situation of the Ukrainian army has become more and more difficult. According to reports, the Russian army may have captured about 300-500 Ukrainian soldiers, a number that may even exceed the number of prisoners in the previous **Mut battle. Many of the captured Ukrainian soldiers were still shaking all over their bodies and unable to control their hands and feet when they were taken to the prisoners' detention area. This reflects the great power of the 500-kilogram and 1,500-kilogram guided bombs used by the Russian army, as well as the tragic situation of the complete destruction of the Ukrainian army's fortresses and buildings in the Avadiivka area. The psychological and physical trauma of these captured soldiers will be an important subject for Ukraine's future reconstruction and recovery.
Despite such a difficult situation, the Ukrainian army did not give up. Ukrainian MP Derbar criticized the retreat for its poor and incompetent, but also revealed the resilience of the Ukrainian army in a desperate situation. During the retreat, the Ukrainian army even had to abandon many of the wounded, since they did not have enough armored vehicles to transfer them. It's a tough choice, but it's also a reality on the battlefield. This sacrificial spirit of the Ukrainian army shows their loyalty to the country and the nation.
In this case, Ukraine's most urgent need is to replenish ammunition. Czech Pavlo announced at the Munich Security Conference that 500,000 rounds of 155-mm shells and 300,000 rounds of 122-mm shells had been found for Ukraine. However, the ** of these shells required funding from Germany, the United States, Canada and the Netherlands. This is a timely aid, but it is also a financial issue that needs to be addressed. This aid will help the Ukrainian army maintain its combat effectiveness in the coming battles, but it also exposes Ukraine's dependence on military resources.
On the other hand, the head of the Main Directorate of Operational Management of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces, Colonel-General Sergei Rudskoi, pointed out that the Russian army found NATO servicemen disguised as mercenaries on the battlefield and were directly involved in the Russian-Ukrainian combat operation. He claimed that the Western tactical missile systems, anti-aircraft missile systems and Hippocampus MLRS used by Ukraine were all operated by NATO servicemen. This accusation, if true, would mean that NATO is directly involved in the conflict, potentially changing the dynamics of the battlefield. NATO's approach has raised concerns about regional stability and the norms of international law.
NATO's involvement does not mean that Ukraine's predicament will be resolved immediately. Russia does not seem to be worried about the involvement of NATO soldiers, as they believe that it will lead to a large number of key members of the NATO Army. In this case, the Russian army may choose to use its advantage in firepower and field clusters to gradually eliminate the knife-point forces of the NATO Army. Such a tactic would exacerbate the brutality of the war, while also potentially leading to a further escalation of tensions between Russia and NATO.
To sum up, Ukraine's retreat in the Avadiivka region was a difficult and chaotic one. Despite the great difficulties they faced, they persisted in the fight. And the Russian army used its firepower and tactical superiority to try to completely defeat the Ukrainian army. The development of this conflict is still fraught with uncertainties, but it is certain that it will have far-reaching consequences for the future of Ukraine and the entire region. The international community should closely follow the development of the situation and seek a peaceful solution to the conflict in order to avoid further humanitarian catastrophes.
