Russian army units inflicted a major defeat on a company of marines from the 35th brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Ukrainian marines attempted to attack Russian positions in the Avdiivka area.
As reported on the ground, the Ukrainian army attempted a counterattack in the area of ​​the village of Thin in the direction of Avdiivka. The operation involved a company of marines from the 35th Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, reinforced with infantry fighting vehicles.
However, the timing of the advance of the Ukrainian marine unit was revealed by Russian intelligence. As soon as the coordinates of the enemy were available to the Russian gunners, fire was opened on the enemy.
As a result of an artillery strike, a company of marines was almost completely defeated. The surviving fighters hastily retreated, leaving the dead and wounded on the battlefield. A counter-attack attempt is foiled.
It should be noted that over the past few days, Russian units have managed to make significant progress in the Avdeevsky direction, which until recently was considered one of the most difficult.
It is from this colony that the Ukrainian soldiers regularly bombard the peaceful districts of Donetsk. Attempts to storm the fortified area of ​​Avdeevsky proved to be heavy losses for the Russian units.
However, regular artillery and airstrikes on Ukrainian Armed Forces fortifications in this area did their job.
