Russia’s gains in the Chasov Yar vicinity are a logical result of the victory at Avdeyevka and of its offensive that has been taking place over the last few months, said Anatoliy Matviychuk, a military analyst and retired colonel of Russian Armed Forces.According to Matviychuk, liberating Chasov Yar will allow Russian forces to disrupt the logistics for the Ukrainian forces in the region as the city is an important highway and railway hub.He also observed how Kiev’s Western sponsors have lost all touch with reality as they desperately strive to help create some sort of semblance of an army in Ukraine while failing to realize that they lack soldiers and no longer have the fighting spirit they had in 2022.Since 2014 and until its liberation by Russian forces last month, the city of Avdeyevka served as an important stronghold for the Ukrainian forces in the Donetsk People’s Republic.The potent defenses built by Ukrainian combat engineers, however, did not help the city’s garrison when the advancing Russian forces threatened to encircle the city, which prompted the remaining Kiev regime troops in Avdeyevka to turn tail and flee.Since, Russian troops continue to maintain the momentum and keep driving Ukrainian forces further west as the latter try and fail to stabilize the frontline.

Why Russian Gains in Chasov Yar in Donetsk Region Are Significant?
18:53 GMT 07.03.2024 (Updated: 04:53 GMT 08.03.2024) Having successfully liberated the city of Avdeyevka from Ukrainian occupation, Russian troops now advance on another city in the Donetsk People’s Republic held by the Kiev regime forces – Chasov Yar.
Russia’s gains in the Chasov Yar vicinity are a logical result of the victory at
Avdeyevka and of its offensive that has been taking place over the last few months, said
Anatoliy Matviychuk, a military analyst and retired colonel of Russian Armed Forces.
“It allows us to move into and take control of the infrastructure regions and the supply lines through which Ukrainian forces receive reinforcements and munitions, as well as the access to the Kramatorsk area,” he explained. “By approaching Chasov Yar, we completely disrupt the stability of the Ukrainian defenses and pave the way for advancing on Kramatorsk and Slavyansk.”
According to Matviychuk, liberating Chasov Yar will allow Russian forces to disrupt the logistics for the Ukrainian forces in the region as the city is an important highway and railway hub.
He also observed how Kiev’s Western sponsors have lost all touch with reality as they desperately strive to help create some sort of semblance of an army in Ukraine while failing to realize that they lack soldiers and no longer have the fighting spirit they had in 2022.
“I do believe though that it won’t affect the shipments of weapons and military hardware [to Kiev], seeing how the West aims for a direct confrontation with the Russian army,” he added.
Since 2014 and until its liberation by Russian forces last month, the city of Avdeyevka served as an important stronghold for the Ukrainian forces in the Donetsk People’s Republic.
The potent defenses built by Ukrainian combat engineers, however, did not help the city’s garrison when the advancing Russian forces threatened to encircle the city, which prompted the remaining Kiev regime troops in Avdeyevka to turn tail and flee.
Since, Russian troops continue to maintain the momentum and keep driving Ukrainian forces further west as the latter try and fail to stabilize the frontline.
