Russian offensive on Avdiivka
At the beginning of October, the Russian occupiers intensified the fighting in the Avdiivka area. This offensive is considered the largest since 2014.
As early as mid-December, according to the White House, Russian terrorists lost more than 13,000 casualties along the Avdiivka-Novopavlivka axis. In particular, our soldiers destroyed more than 220 combat vehicles.
