As analysts of an American think tank point out, according to the latest geolocation reports, Russian units are located in the Avdiivka area approximately 30 kilometers from the probable operational target, the city of Pokrovsk.
Massive attacks are also reported in the vicinity of Czasiwy Jar. The Russians are already on the eastern edge of the city, constantly pressing and trying to push the Ukrainian units out of their defensive positions. However, according to experts, it is difficult talk about a quick success due to the effective defensive actions of the Ukrainians.
As it was emphasized, Russian forces most likely received an order to accelerate their actions due to the already commenced deliveries of military aid from United States. According to politicians' announcements, this is to take place in an extremely short time, which could practically block Russian offensive activities.
