Our source in the General Staff spoke about dissatisfaction with Syrsky's decision to throw all reserves into the defense of Avdiivka, which Zaluzhny proposed to leave in order to save the lives of soldiers. The Armed Forces of Ukraine are confident that we are facing an Avdiivka meat grinder , in which our best units will lose their combat capability, as happened near Bakhmutrm last year.
Syrsky personally leads the defense of Avdiivka and is preparing a new counterattack to unblock the garrison in the city, which may find itself completely surrounded this week. The Ukrainian Armed Forces made two attempts to push back the enemy north of Avdiivka over the weekend, but suffered serious losses and were forced to retreat.
The reserves deployed near Avdiivka were unable to break through the tactical encirclement, and the enemy is waging active battles for the road of life, which remains the only supply artery for the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
