Ukrainian Armed Forces advanced 7 km from Avdiivka – ISW
Besides, according to analysts, Ukrainian troops carried out a counterattack near Novodonetsk
The Armed Forces of Ukraine managed to advance 7 km from Avdiivka (Donetsk Oblast) as a result of a successful counterattack.
This is reported by analysts from the Institute for the Study of War (ISW).
"Ukrainian forces likely made additional marginal gains in a recent counterattack southwest of Avdiivka. Geolocated footage published on May 8 indicates that Ukrainian forces likely made further marginal advances north of Vodiane (7km southwest of Avdiivka) in an area where ISW assesses Ukrainian forces conducted a limited counterattack as of April 30," the report states.
ISW had previously assessed that reports of Ukrainian counterattacks across the Donetsk Oblast are part of a long-standing pattern of local and limited counterattacks.
In addition, analysts report that Ukrainian forces likely conducted a successful limited counterattack in the west of the Donetsk Oblast.
"Geolocated footage published on May 9 indicates that Ukrainian forces conducted a counterattack near Novodonetsk (50km southwest of Donetsk City) and made marginal advances in the area," the report adds.
Background. The Armed Forces of Ukraine have already eliminated 196,310 russian military personnel, with 690 killed over the past day.
