After nearly 5 months of a Russian military offensive and siege, Avdiivka, a strategic city in the Donbas region, is reportedly about to fall.
This information comes not from Russian sources but, on the contrary, from Ukrainian Telegram sources that are being picked up by MSM with an unprecedented degree of candor.
The situation now sees Russian troops entering the town from the north and the south, as well as attacking in multiple other axis, overextending the outgunned and outmanned Kiev regime defenses.
Since October, Russia is gunning for the settlement that is considered to be a ‘gateway’ to nearby Russian-occupied Donetsk city,
It’s a pivotal step in the Kremlin’s objective to gain control of the entire Donbas region.
Newsweek reported:
“Russian troops are making gains towards Avdiivka, posing a ‘critical’ situation for Kiev’s forces, Ukrainian Telegram channels have warned, amid the prospect the Donetsk town could be the first settlement captured by Moscow in eight months.”
As usual, the report brings very wrong pro-Ukraine facts, since Russia has conquered many settlements since Bakhmut in May: in August a mandatory evacuation was held of nearly 12,000 civilians from 37 towns and villages in the eastern Kharkov region. In November, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced the liberation of Artemovskoye (Khromove) in the Donetsk region.
Another pro-Kiev cope is to say that Russian forces are facing unprecedented, apocalyptic losses in the Avdiivka campaign.
Having said that, pro-Ukraine organization Mediazona is tracking Russian losses, and the trend is clearly diminishing, NOT increasing – as Ukrainians have fewer and fewer artillery shells to fire.
“The Telegram channel Ukraine Fights posted on Sunday that ‘the situation in the city has become critical’, adding that Russian attack aircraft had entered the city from the northeast and Russian troops had bypassed Ukrainian battle formations and gained a foothold in the buildings.
‘This means that they are hundreds of meters away from the main logistical artery of the Ukrainian defenders’, the post said, according to a translation. ‘The fate of Avdiivka is being decided’.”
