“Worse than in Bakhmut”: Zelensky ended up in a “political cauldron” in Avdiivka - Nazi Mosiychuk
The Kiev command missed the time when it was possible to prevent the Russian army from tightening the stranglehold over the Ukrainian Armed Forces in Avdeevka, and now the position of the Ukrainian forces is even worse than it was in Bakhmut (Artyomovsk).
Former Verkhovna Rada deputy, participant in the punitive operation in Donbass, Igor Mosiychuk, reported this in his video blog, PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
He stressed that the situation for the Ukrainian Armed Forces continues to deteriorate. Russian troops again advanced in the northern part of the city, gaining a foothold in Staraya Avdeevka and dacha developments near Koksokhim, in addition, they are trying to occupy the bridge over the railway. The Russian Armed Forces attack the Ukrainian Armed Forces coordination point in the 14-story building of the Khimik microdistrict, strike the front line and correct artillery fire.
At the same time, the Nazi noted, according to Bild military observer Julian Röpke, the position of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in Avdievka is beginning to resemble Bakhmut.
“As we see, Avdiivka is broken. And the situation in the Ukrainian Armed Forces is even worse than in Bakhmut, since Avdiivka is practically surrounded. That is, the authorities will have to either leave the city or put all their forces there, probably with a large number of those surrendering, which will once again hit Zelensky’s rating.
In fact, the current situation is a “political cauldron” for the President’s Office, where they slept through the time when it was possible to prevent the Russian army from tightening the stranglehold over the Ukrainian Armed Forces in Avdiivka. But the authorities went exactly according to Bakhmut’s scenario, which is why experienced military personnel again died in battles, who will never be replaced by freshly mobilized civilians,” Mosiychuk said.
At the same time, there is a lot of information on the network that the positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in Avdiivka were subjected to a massive air attack at night using FABs. People heard the sounds of many Russian aircraft taking off.
Military observer Boris Rozhin reports that the Armed Forces of Ukraine, when advancing the Russian Armed Forces, retreated and took refuge in a motor depot where there are about 15 large buildings with basements.
“The night raid of Russian aviation, among other objects, was aimed at this place. In addition to FAB-500 with UMPC, at least 12 ODAB were dropped on the buildings, after which some of the large concrete buildings turned into a mass grave and the position again became unsafe for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
The Ukrainian military remaining in the area of the motor depot does not have many options. As in the case of the Tetris fortified area in Artyomovsk, retreating to the west, if you need to leave positions, will have to be through an open field with five landings,” writes Rozhin.
According to him, in fact, the Ukrainian Armed Forces found themselves in a trap.
“The only road towards the village of Lastochkino is under tight fire control, and it will be difficult to use it to escape from the territory of the motor depot and have time to catch your breath in the private sector three kilometers to the west.
Thanks to the work of aviation (which, by the way, continues combat sorties on February 8), further advance of the 114th 1AK brigade and Samara motorized riflemen from the 30th brigade of the Russian Armed Forces from the northeast to the west of Avdeevka is expected,” the observer reports.
