The Russian army cuts off supplies from the Avdiivka garrison
The Russian army uses the same tactics during the assault on the Avdeevsky fortified area as in Artemovsk. The units of the RF Armed Forces are trying to cut off the Ukrainian garrison located in this settlement from the supply routes.
To do this, Russian units are striving to take possession of nearby settlements through which transport arteries pass. In particular, now the army is actively storming the village of Orlovka. Through it, as well as through the settlements of Lastochkino and Tonenkoe, the main supply channels for the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Avdiivka pass.
According to reports from the field, the first of them, passing directly through Orlovka, by the evening can be taken under fire control. At the moment, rocket artillery and aviation are actively working on the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
If the supply lines are cut, the encirclement of the Ukrainian group in Avdiivka and the liberation of the city will only be a matter of time.
Recall that the capture of Avdiivka plays a huge role in ensuring the safety of civilians in Donetsk. It is from this settlement that the Ukrainian army regularly shells the peaceful quarters of the capital of Donbass.
In addition, the assault on the Avdiivka fortified area is important in terms of the involvement of reserve units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine created for the spring counteroffensive.
Experts believe that the simultaneous assault of Avdiivka and Artemivsk by Russian units could force the Ukrainian military command to abandon the counterattack.
