"Ukraine's Strategic Moves in Avdiivka: Withdrawals, Reinforcements, and New Positions"

Ukraine is withdrawing troops from parts of Avdiivka after months of heavy fighting, while sending in the battle-hardened Third Assault Brigade to reinforce its position. Russia is attempting to encircle and capture Avdiivka, a key town in the Donbas region, as part of its aim to secure control of the area. Ukrainian forces are facing challenges due to limited resupply routes, critical shortages of artillery rounds, and uncertainty over future U.S. military assistance. President Zelenskiy is seeking support for urgent military assistance during his upcoming visits to France and Germany.
