Avdeevsk direction: offensive northeast of Avdievka

Russian troops continue to build on their success west of Avdeevka.

Assault groups of the Russian Armed Forces are advancing in Semyonovka. At the moment, more than half of the village is under the control of Russian forces; attack aircraft are occupying new positions in dilapidated houses. The total advance was at least 700 meters.

The enemy holds the northern outskirts, relying on the forest belt adjacent to the settlement. The field east of the village most likely came under the control of Russian forces, since in the conditions of lack of supplies there is no place for the Ukrainian Armed Forces to hold positions there.

In addition to the offensive west of Avdievka, Russian troops continue to build on their success on the northern flank.

Simultaneously with the entry of the assault troops into the territory of the Zarya holiday village, the Russian Armed Forces attempted an attack with an armored group to the west.

Several units of armored vehicles reached the forest belt on the outskirts of the settlement and came under fire from the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The exact zone of control is unclear, but at least part of the forest belt to the south and east is under the control of Russian troops, as confirmed by footage of the attack.

Based on the video published by the enemy of the use of cluster munitions on Russian infantry, it becomes clear that the advanced groups of attack aircraft of the Russian Armed Forces tried to advance through the forest belt even further to the west, but the outcome of the battle is unknown.
