UAF Commander-in-Chief visits Avdiivka direction and makes series of decisions
For several days in a row, the Russian occupants have been trying to break through the defense of Ukrainian troops in the lines of three brigades in the Avdiivka sector. Ukrainian Armed Forces Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi visited the area and made a series of decisions.
"I worked in the Avdiivka area, where the enemy has concentrated its main efforts and has been trying to break through the defense of our troops in the bands of three brigades for several days in a row, daily sending assault units on vehicles and foot," he says.
According to him, together with the commanders, they considered the best options for the actions of our troops, the maneuver of reserves, the provision of ammunition, and other material resources.
"All necessary measures have been taken to strengthen the defense and organize constant interaction between all elements of the operational structure in this area," the general states.

According to Syrskyi, Russia's offensive is supported by intense artillery fire and active use of FPV drones and drones with dumps.
"Enemy aircraft periodically strikes with guided aerial bombs from a distance of 40-50 km, artillery positions and the main elements of the combat order are covered by electronic warfare," the Armed Forces Commander-in-Chief says about Russia's tactics.

In these conditions, the general says, the most effective way to conduct defense is to destroy enemy armored vehicles and infantry assault groups with artillery fire, armored groups, integrated use of various types of unmanned aerial vehicles, protection of their units from enemy drones with electronic warfare means in combination with the destruction of enemy UAV control centers with missile strikes and artillery fire.
