Tactical mistakes and poor morale on the part of Russian soldiers: According to British intelligence, Russia is suffering heavy casualties in its attacks in the particularly hard-fought city of Avdiivka.
According to British intelligence services, Russia has suffered heavy losses in its attacks on the eastern Ukrainian city of Avdiivka.
A regiment allegedly lost a large proportion of its tanks in an attempt to encircle Avdiivka from the south, according to the British Ministry of Defense briefing. The affected regiment is part of an army formation that was specially formed to support the aggressive war in Ukraine.
In the meantime, however, there were many signs that the formation had problems with poor discipline and morale, the British said. Although the associated soldiers would have completed a training phase in Belarus, they would have had only a very limited combat strength. The losses are probably largely due to the fact that attacks were carried out tactically incorrectly – as was the case in the Ukrainian city of Wuhledar.
The British Ministry of Defense has been issuing daily updates on the course of the war since Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine began in February 2022, citing intelligence information. In doing so, the British government wants to both counter the Russian portrayal and keep allies in line. Moscow accuses London of a disinformation campaign.
