The number of daily ground assaults by russian occupation forces decreased after the capture of Avdiivka, but russia is gradually regaining its strength. This is stated in an intelligence report released by the British Ministry of Defense, UNN reports.
Details
It is noted that the russians continue to try to advance in several directions. Currently, russia has concentrated its forces to the west of Avdiivka and Maryinka. These areas account for about 60% of russian attacks.
At the same time, analysts noted that the average number of russian assaults per week has significantly decreased compared to February of this year, when the average number of attacks increased to 600.
