British intelligence assessed the situation around Chasovoy Yar, which was attacked by Russian occupation forces. This is stated in the analysis of the British Ministry of Defense dated April 21.
The department, citing the words of the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Alexander Syrsky, noted that the Russian Federation wants to capture Chasov Yar before May 9, when Moscow celebrates World War Victory Day II. Chasov Yar is an initial step on the way to a bigger city – Kramatorsk.
British analysts noted the April 18 statement by the commander of the Operational-Strategic Group of Forces Khortytsya that Russian forces were dropping 30-40 adjusted bombs per day.
“They were probably shot down by Russian Su-25 aircraft operating close to the contact line, and Su-34 aircraft operating at a distance using guided bombs. This was a coordinated aerial bombardment, and the tactic that this is repeated from the Avdiivka campaign. The analysis of the Defense Ministry says.
British intelligence said that Chasov Yar was well protected and located on a hill.
“Russian ground forces have made only weak progress in the area,” the department added.
Let us remind you that the Ukrainian Armed Forces reported that the Ukrainian military is monitoring the situation in the city of Chasov Yar, Donetsk region. The invaders did not stop their attacks.
It was previously reported that Russian troops continue to try to capture Chasov Yar, destroying the city in the process.
