Dmitry Likhov said that in four months of operations in Avdiivka, the total losses of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation amounted to more than 47 thousand soldiers. After such losses, regrouping is required, but the enemy has some reserves.

Ukrainian fighters restore positions, the Russians are captured, which indicates the presence of a close fighting.
