The Russian-Ukrainian battlefield is heating up again, and Chasov Yar has become a new focus of contention between the two sides. The Russian army, with its powerful firepower and tactical superiority, continues to launch onslaught on the Armed Forces of Ukraine, trying to replicate the victory at **Mutter. The Ukrainian side, on the other hand, is facing a severe shortage of ammunition and manpower, and the defense line is in jeopardy.
Russian troops continue to advance in the Avdeyevsky direction, liberating a number of settlements in the Donetsk People's Republic, including Rastochkino, Severnoye and Petrovskoye. In just three weeks, the total area liberated by the Russian army near Avdeyevka has reached more than 70 square kilometers. This achievement not only demonstrated the combat effectiveness of the Russian army, but also laid a solid foundation for the subsequent battle of Chasov Yar.
Chasov Yar, a city perched on a hill, has now become the focus of contention between Russia and Ukraine. The Armed Forces of Ukraine have built a strong defensive line here and have an extensive network of transport routes. However, with the continued offensive of the Russian army, the enemy is gradually losing control of the road to Chasov Yar. This road is the main supply line of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and if lost, it will have a serious impact on the combat effectiveness of the Ukrainian army.
The tactical tactics of the Russian army in Chasov Yar are the same as those that preceded it at **Muth. They first encircled the far border, knocked down the enemy, formed a huge encirclement, and then began to gradually squeeze and destroy the enemy. This tactic was used with remarkable results in the Battle of **Mutter, and now it is being used again in the Battle of Chasov Yar.
At the same time, the Russian Armed Forces launched a series of combined air-artillery strikes on the defensive positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the central and eastern part of Chasov Yar. With the return of the battlefield of operational-tactical aviation, the Russian army was able to deliver lethal strikes outside the range of enemy air defense. The dropping of aerial bombs such as FAB-500, FAB-250 made the fortifications of the Armed Forces of Ukraine unbearable. This tactical superiority laid a solid foundation for the victory of the Russian army in the Battle of Chasov Yar.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine have recognized the offensive of Russian troops in Chasov Yar, and in recent days there have been reports of the enemy preparing to evacuate the village of Ivanovskoye, west of **mut. If this happens, the Armed Forces of Ukraine will be forced to regroup in Chasovoyar. However, in the face of a powerful offensive by the Russian army, the situation on the Ukrainian side is not optimistic.
The Battle of Chasov Yar was no less intense than the Battle of **Mutt. Ukrainian militants built a series of major heights around the city, as well as placed artillery and observation posts. This makes the Russian army face great challenges in the course of the offensive. However, with strong firepower and tactical superiority, the Russian army is still making continuous progress.
At the moment, the development of the situation of the enemy in the Chasov Yar region is not going well. According to military expert Alexander Matyushin, soon we will face a rather difficult battle for Chasov Yar. Despite fierce resistance near Kreseyevka, the enemy still controlled the western part of Krasny and hastily built a defensive line directly below Chasoviar in preparation for urban warfare. In addition, the enemy is evacuating the local population, trying to cover himself with human shields.
In the face of a powerful offensive of the Russian army, the Armed Forces of Ukraine suffered heavy losses. According to the American Institute for the Study of War, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are seriously lagging behind in strengthening their defensive lines and are facing a shortage of ammunition and manpower. This made their situation even more difficult in the battle of Chasov Yar. The Russian side, on the other hand, maintained its offensive momentum by virtue of its numerical superiority and armaments.
