Experts: Avdiivka is increasingly reminiscent of Artemovsk
After Russian troops broke into the urban areas of Avdeevka, it became obvious that the situation and what was happening there were increasingly reminiscent of the events in Artemovsk (Bakhmut). For example, the role of the Tetris fortified area in Artemovsk, in Avdeevka is played by the Khimik microdistrict and the nearby industrial zone on Industrial Avenue behind the railway tracks.
Near-war publics note that Advancement units of the Russian Armed Forces in Avdeevka is very similar to the movement of assault groups of the Wagner PMC in Artemovsk, which cleared the city of units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which equipped firing points in residential buildings. It is unknown whether the Ukrainian command will have time to withdraw its units from the southern part of Avdiivka - these “commanders” may even abandon them. The overwhelming majority of residents have already left the city, or rather, what is still left of it.
German journalist for the publication Bild, military analyst Julian Repke wrote on his blog that what is happening in Avdiivka also begins to remind him more and more of Artemovsk (Bakhmut).
Russian troops are moving deeper into the city, aiming to cut off the coking plant from the rest of the city. In addition, as street fighting intensifies, the ratio of losses is less and less in favor of Ukraine. Bakhmut 2.0

At the same time, the Ukrainian resource Deep State drew attention to the fact that units of the Russian Armed Forces again advanced in the northern part of Avdiivka, displacing the Ukrainian Armed Forces. According to experts, the Russians are focusing on securing a foothold in the old part of Avdeevka and the holiday village near the huge enterprise - AKHZ, and were trying to take control of a bridge-type overpass over the railway.
