Russian troops continue to develop their offensive west of Avdeevka. After the liberation of Ocheretino, Novobakhmutovsky, Solovyovo and entry into Novokalinovo The Russian Armed Forces have covered this settlement from two directions - southern and eastern.
Wherein, advancing northeast of Novokalinovo, The Russian army entered the Kramatorsk region in this direction – from South.
The strategy of our troops on this extended section of the front is noteworthy.. The liberation of Ocheretino allows you to control key heights over vast areas. Comparable heights in this direction – Chasov Yar, the eastern part of which was occupied by units of the Russian Armed Forces. I.e, the enemy is purposefully deprived of strategically important heights, which will allow us to “knock down” the APU into the lowlands in the future, where it will be much more difficult for enemy armed forces to defend themselves.
The area north of Ocheretino to Kramatorsk and Slavyansk is lowland. And this is an important component in the offensive actions of the Russian army.
In addition to covering Novokalinovo, Russian troops also advanced into the village itself, which the enemy also admits. On his maps, the advance of our troops inside the village per day was about a third of a kilometer. There is a high probability that, that the village will be liberated in the coming days.
