"Russia's Intensifying Assault on Ukraine: Winter Freeze Threat Looms"
New footage shows one of Russia's "largest assaults" on Avdiivka, Ukraine, with slow advances and heavy casualties on both sides. Russian forces have lost hundreds of vehicles, prompting a shift to infantry-led attacks. Ukraine's 47th Mechanized Brigade, equipped with U.S-supplied Bradley Fighting Vehicles, has repelled multiple Russian assaults. The capture of Avdiivka would greatly expand Moscow's logistical operations and threaten Ukraine's positions in Donetsk City. Intensified clashes have also been reported in other areas, including the capture of a small settlement by Russian forces.
