Ukrainian Defense Forces are continuing the defense of the Avdiivka sector, which will be facilitated by favorable terrain, Dmytro Lykhoviy, spokesperson for the Tavria operational and strategic troop grouping, told Radio Liberty on Feb. 28.

Troops of the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade have posted a video of fighting in a dacha (summer house) residential area in the war-torn town of Avdiivka, where the soldiers were breaking through Russian lines.

Several units of the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade were temporarily completely surrounded by Russian troops in Avdiivka, Donetsk Oblast, but managed to get out, Deputy Brigade Commander Maksym Zhorin said on Telegram on Feb. 19.

Ukraine's 3rd Assault Brigade, which is being used to conduct counterattacks during the Avdiivka withdrawal, has controversial right-wing roots.

The 3rd Separate Assault Brigade of the Defence Forces of Ukraine has posted a video from the cellars of the Avdiivka Coke Plant, where medics are stabilising the wounded and soldiers take shelter from Russian attacks.

Russia disseminated a false claim regarding an alleged attack on a training ground in Selydove, Donetsk Oblast, and the purported deaths of Ukrainian soldiers, spokesperson for the Tavria Operational Command, Dmytro Lykhoviy, reported on Facebook on Feb. 14.

Kyiv Post visited the stabilization point of brigades that liberated Andriivka and Klishchiivka in the Donetsk Region. There, as elsewhere, combat medics can be prime targets.

The Ukrainian soldier was alone on the road when he approached the hornet’s nest under his feet: a group of about 10 Russians in a drainage pipe turned into a makeshift bunker.

Outnumbered and outgunned, Ukrainian teams numbering four to a dozen can attack on foot far less conspicuously than with vehicles, surprising complacent enemies and triggering chaos along the front.
