According to the General Staff, Ukrainian armed forces repelled numerous Russian attacks near Kupiansk in the northeast, near the destroyed city of Bakhmut in the east and further south near Avdiivka. Around 40,000 Russian soldiers have been massed in front of Avdiivka, writes military analyst Oleksandr Kovalenko in an online article.
“Despite the losses, the Russian leadership still wants to take Avdiivka, which is now more of a political than a tactical goal.” The city is considered a symbol of Ukrainian resistance. A video released by the Ukrainian military shows Ukrainian forces destroying a Russian flamethrower system near Avdiivka – an attack it said might be seen for dozens of kilometers. Archyde.com might not immediately independently verify the information. Russia initially did not comment on the Ukrainian reports.
