After Russian forces took control of the forest area on the south-eastern outskirts of Avdeevka, fighting is ongoing in the residential area of the city. The Russian military gained a foothold on the streets but the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) fo not stop attempts to counterattack. So far without any significant success.
One of Ukrainian counterattacks in the south-eastern part of Avdeevka was filmed by reconnaissance drones. The combined group of the 47th and 116th Brigades of the AFU on US-made Bradley IFV and M113 APC, attempted an attack on Russian positions in the area of the Tsarskaya Okhota hotel. As a result of the failed operation, the Ukrainian group was blockaded in the ruins. At least four Ukrainian servicemen were reportedly wounded.
The AFU suffered more losses as a result of the strikes by Russian small FPV drones.
