Russia's Special Operation in Ukraine

Watch Russian Soldiers Storm Ukrainian Foothold Outside Avdeyevka

In February 2024, Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu announced that Russia had liberated the city of Avdeyevka. President Vladimir Putin put the spotlight on this achievement, describing it as a crucial victory. The city had been heavily fortified by Ukraine for nearly a decade, making it a strategic location in the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR).

The Russian Armed Forces spotted enemy fortifications during a routine aerial reconnaissance mission with the help of a UAV. The coordinates were then transmitted to storm brigades, who quietly approached the Ukrainian foothold, surrounding it from multiple directions.
The troops then attacked, supported by artillery, tanks and strike drones. The Russian forces quickly overwhelmed the Ukrainian militants and seized control over the location, thereby securing better strategic positions.
