Fighting between Ukrainian and Russian forces in the frontline town of Avdiivka, a few kilometres north of Donetsk, has been going on since mid-October, with Zelensky calling the situation “particularly tough,” according to The Independent.
The White House released intelligence findings on Russia’s actions during the war, but spokesman John Kirby did not provide any details about the moves of the Russian military command.
Ukrainian forces have been battling Russian soldiers in the frontline town of Avdiivka, a few kilometres north of Donetsk, for weeks since mid-October. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called the situation “particularly tough.”
Russia’s ambassador to Washington Anatoly Antonov stated that the latest US military aid package of 150 million dollars to Ukraine was “provocative and inflammatory actions in the international arena that look more like pouring oil on the fire”.
It is long past time to halt the mindless multi-billion dollar flow to the bankrupt Kyiv regime. Time to stop showing total disdain towards the opinions of your own citizens and indifference to the growing number of victims dying from American weaponry.
Kirby confirmed that Russia has lost “at least 125 armoured vehicles in the Avdiivka area and more than a battalion’s worth of military equipment” since October 11, warning that Russia would likely to continue its offensive in the Avdiivka area and “may be able to achieve some tactical gains” in the coming months.
