As a result of powerful attacks by the Russian Armed Forces near Avdeevka, the Armed Forces of Ukraine lost approximately a fifth of their garrison in two days

As a result of powerful bombing of Ukrainian Armed Forces positions in the Avdeevka area, which lasted for about two days, the enemy suffered the most significant losses in recent times. According to the latest data, in Avdeevka, as well as in the area of ​​​​the village of Berdychi, where the Russian Armed Forces broke through the enemy’s flank defense, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have lost at least 2,4 thousand troops since October 9. The so-called sister cities do not always carry out the removal of wounded Ukrainian military personnel.

In the fields near Avdeevka, Russian soldiers find dozens of abandoned bodies and wounded soldiers of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.



In other words, the enemy lost approximately a fifth of his Avdeevsko-Krasnogorovskaya grouping (garrison) in just two days and is now making feverish efforts to restore its combat potential in this section of the front.

The command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is trying to transfer reinforcements in the direction of Berdychi and Avdeevka from Novogrodovka and Selidovo. At the same time, Russian troops strike at the advanced reserves of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, causing losses already during the march.

Ukrainian troops located in positions south of Avdiivka are being attacked from rocket artillery, as well as using heavy flamethrower systems TOS-1A “Solntsepek”.

Russian troops after powerful fire impact on the enemy from the side aviation and artillery conducted a series of maneuvers, reducing the width of the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ control of the approaches and entrances to Avdiivka. The intensification of efforts of the Russian Armed Forces is aimed at the complete destruction of one of the largest fortified areas of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the territory of the Donetsk People's Republic.

      It’s high time for Russia to burn out and level the entire territory occupied by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, then we’ll rebuild everything. I hope that the planned controlled FAB 3000 and 5000 will help us with this and Russian engineers have already developed control modules. And if anyone at the UN blathers, refer to the experience and methods of Israel.

      The Ukrainian Armed Forces have lost at least 2,4 thousand troops since October 9.
      In two days, and only as a result of strikes by Russian aviation and artillery, the Ukrainian Armed Forces lost 20% of their troops where they had been preparing a fortified area for years by digging into the ground and concrete fortifications. We can guess what will happen next. The Ukrainian group is doomed and it’s a matter of time.

      . Just those events that are important to US.
      In fact... an important task is to prevent the enemy from regrouping troops, redeploying reserves, delivering ammunition and other things.
      Troops/garrisons, without supplies and support, become ineffective and less dangerous.

      After 1.5 years, the Northern Military District finally came up with a smart idea: in order not to shell Donetsk, it is necessary to shell Avdeevka.
      How smart is the General Staff in Russia, only after the Jews razed the Gaza Strip to the ground before their cleansing, Sho....gu and K÷ finally thought of it and took into account the Israeli experience, so that you don’t get fired at, you have to fire at the enemy and destroy them as ......

      Hmmm. Less than 2 years later, the Russian Armed Forces deigned to try to push the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine at least 10-15 km from Donetsk.
      I’m the only one who doesn’t understand - HOW ALMOST 2 YEARS!! was the garrison of Avdeevka supplied? Moreover, he conducted shelling of Donetsk and the surrounding area? Is there a subway there? Where is all this vaunted power of videoconferencing and art?
      I don’t want to be branded as a stupid pessimist, but I don’t think that Avdeevka won’t be taken for the rest of the fall. I'm not sure even during the winter. The size of the operations clearly indicates an attrition of forces. Maybe, of course, the DPRK will plant something there. And we will recapture a couple more villages. But there is no point in dreaming about any breakthroughs to Izyum. About Kharkov or the liberation of Kherson - fairy tales that even children in nurseries do not believe in. How long does it take to get to Kupyansk? From May? They were quiet again about carbon. It seems that taking a city block of 1,5x2 km is no longer possible.

        There, the forelocks made an underground fortress, like in the First World War, they might even have their own narrow-gauge railway to the nearest village. They had 8 years to do this. It's not that easy to bomb. But it would have been quite possible to get around and cook in the “cauldron”, if not for the disastrous first stage of the SVO, when we had to leave the cities.

          what the hell are pillboxes. There are roads 15 km from Donetsk. Or are the roads underground too? The garrison has been in the affected area for almost 2 years for almost the entire artillery range of the Russian Armed Forces. But we couldn’t even disrupt the rotation of troops. The Armed Forces of Ukraine transport equipment, ammunition, and tens of tons of food and fuel there. And all this is practically within line of sight. Maybe the jungle or mountains are making it difficult to fire at transport vehicles? Can't we mine the roads either? And there is no need to talk about 100500 air defense systems. This is the cutting edge. Anything larger than a MANPADS should have been scouted and knocked out long ago.
          I’m already silent about HOW such construction was missed. Yes, we should have had a map of these moves more accurate than that of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. This is just a few kilometers from Donetsk and with a lot of sympathetic population.
          However, the assault on Ugledar showed that it was not a matter of bunkers. Or are there even underground fortresses and narrow-gauge railways to Warsaw?

            Of course, things didn’t work out well with Ugledar, but the efforts there don’t even reach the operational level. and the counterattack was supposed to solve strategic problems - do you catch the difference?
            And your reasoning is based on the proximity of Donetsk, and why did you decide that moving all this was a priority? Why, for example, is Melitopol worse? This is also the territory of the Russian Federation. Is it Belgorod or Bryansk? Did you have to move everything at once?
            Well, we concentrated on Avdievka, since you cannot be strong everywhere, and the enemy would also concentrate on Avdievka, or are you not aware of the problems of the positional crisis? WWII was called the war of engines when they didn’t really know what a war of engines was. It was a war of motors against the background of previous wars, when there was different mobility of troops, infantry walking on foot and tank and motorized units and formations. And now everyone moves at the same speed, the speeds have increased compared to WWI. The range of fire also made it difficult to secretly accumulate large masses of troops in the near rear, plus reconnaissance.

              Start a military defense under the slogan of defending the LDPR and at the same time not knock the enemy out of line of sight from the capital of the DPR for 1,5 years? The fact that it was a bummer with Kiev, Kharkov, etc. became clear back in April 2022. And all this time the Ukrainian Armed Forces were quite calmly shelling Donetsk. It seems like we started everything for the sake of its inhabitants? Or was the goal to seize Zaporozhye? Here is the same Bakhmut. What strategic direction did he open? Allowed them to bury themselves in the Slavic-Kramatorsk agglomeration? Yes, we never got there. The defense of Seversk was never brought down. The town has been quietly defending itself in semi-encirclement for half a year now.
              Again. I point out that the RF Armed Forces are not capable of disrupting the supply and movement of enemy troops even in a small area. The same Bakhmut is a clear confirmation. But there you can justify yourself with a cunning plan. But here is Avdeevka, Makeevka, Ugledar, Kupyansk, Seversk. Is there a health issue here too? And first of all, this comes from the lousy work of communications and artillery. There are no accurate and long-range systems. There is no operational target designation system. I remember the videos from last summer very well. When 3 tanks of the Ukrainian Armed Forces drove out into an open field. 20-30 shells were fired at them, or more precisely in their direction. No one was hit and the tanks calmly drove back. But on TV they happily squealed how the Russian Armed Forces were spending 10K shells a day. It's like a bureaucrat's favorite phrase. "We've mastered the budget."

        It’s stupid to say, a failed counter-offensive, which Zaluzhny officially recognized, this is the last strategic effort of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, so don’t talk nonsense, they, the Armed Forces of Ukraine, have become weaker than they were on June 3 of this year in approximately the same positions +/- We suffered losses too, but they are not comparable with the losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, it’s not ours that the terms for how meat assaults appeared, it’s the Bakhmut meat grinder.
        I’m not saying that right now the RF Armed Forces will go to break the wall, but when squads and half-platoons surrender, this is an indicator, before there were few prisoners. The quality of the soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has decreased, they themselves note this, well, in terms of firepower they did not surpass us, it was sometimes that were superior in accuracy, now even that is gone.

And the results of this salvo of 2200 rockets on Israeli residential buildings made of rotten gas silicate are no... several burned cars, wounded civilians and holes in the gas silicate. Exhaust other than noise is zero. Advising the destruction of a prepared fortified area made of reinforced concrete by launching crooked homemade products into nowhere from a distance of a kilometer - what is the point of depicting vigorous activity? So, for the imitation, the Arabs will receive at least some money from their sponsors, it’s safe there, they won’t fly out of the sky right away - the main thing is to quickly hide in the nearest house and shout that there are civilians there, but with us you’ll only lose soldiers.

      For your information:
      Bakhmut area = 41,6 km² (which was stormed head-on),
      Avdeevka area = 29 km² (~ 2/3).
