"Ukrainian Forces Employ Tactical Howitzers and Foil Russian Assaults in Avdiivka"
The Ukrainian army's 55th Artillery Brigade, armed with Caesar self-propelled howitzers, has been successfully repelling Russian assaults on Avdiivka for 20 days. The artillery has reportedly destroyed the equivalent of a Russian brigade, preventing the Russians from cutting off and starving Avdiivka's Ukrainian garrison. The Caesars' ability to quickly fire and relocate has helped them avoid Russian counterbattery fire, and their use of American-made cluster shells has inflicted heavy casualties on the attacking Russians.
