"Very difficult situation": the expert told about the new tactics of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in Avdiivka

Russian troops, according to Mikhail Zhirokhov, began to use aviation and 500-kilogram bombs more often, which leads to great casualties among civilians. The situation in Avdiivka of Donetsk region is exacerbated, and the armed forces of the Russian Federation are trying to bypass the settlement on both sides. Military expert Mikhail Zhirokhov said this in an interview with RBC Ukraine on March 28.

The expert noted that the Russian troops tried to capture Avdiivka for a long time, storming her "in the forehead. " These attempts were not successful because in 9 wars of the Armed Forces reliably strengthened the city. Having failed, the invaders decided to try to bypass the city from the south and north in areas where there is less defense. "Now the Russians are trying to break the defense of the Armed Forces in order to cut the last two roads.

In this way, not to storm" in the forehead ", and that our military will move on," Zhirokhov said. He also mentioned that Avdiivka turned into a "red zone" for volunteers and journalists because of the high intensity of enemy aviation and the use of 500-kg bombs. Similar actions of the occupiers lead to great casualties among civilians. "The situation is very difficult there, but now controlled," the expert stated.

Mikhail Zhirokhov explained that Avdiivka was strategic for the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. In addition, Russian propagandists convince the population of the Russian Federation that it is the same city from which Donetsk was allegedly fired. Recall that according to the Institute of War Study of March 27, Russian military commanders could attract the most experienced and qualified "Wagner" to consolidate insignificant tactical accessories in the assault of Avdiivka.
