Ukrainian forces are in a difficult defensive format in this area, said Alexander Borodin.
The ratio of Ukrainian and Russian forces in the Avdeevka area (Donetsk region), where the Third Separate Assault Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces has been redeployed to strengthen the defense, is one to seven. The situation in this direction is quite complicated. This is what the press officer of the Third Separate Assault Brigade, Alexander Borodin, said to Radio Liberty on Thursday, February 15.
“We must understand that there are two armies against us here. The ratio is about one to seven. This is a very serious challenge. If we compare with Bakhmut, where we were also on the defensive when (attack – ed. ) Wagner PMC, then there was a mix between ” “prisoners” and “special forces”, then the linear brigades of the Russian Federation and specialists of the GRU (the Main Directorate of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Russian Federation – ed.) is mechanized here. That is, this is probably the most serious fist of Russia in Ukraine,” the military said.
He added that Ukrainian forces are currently in a difficult defensive format in the Avdiivka area.
“Some units are working 360 degrees with us. That is, the situation is really difficult, and one of the elements is that the enemy can hit almost completely 360 degrees in some places. This does not mean that we completely surrounded in these places. , but this means that it can hit,” concluded Borodin.
We remind you that the Ukrainian Armed Forces immediately transferred reinforcements to Avdeevka – the 3rd separate assault brigade.
We would like to add that supplies in Avdeevka are currently scarce. The Ukrainian Armed Forces activated a reserve logistics artery.
