In the area of responsibility of the Tavriia Operational Strategic Group on the Avdiivka front, the Russians are persisting in their attempts to encircle Avdiivka. However, Ukrainian soldiers are holding the line, inflicting heavy losses on the Russian occupying forces. A Russian offensive near the populated areas of Avdiivka, Tonenke and Pervomaiske (Donetsk Oblast) failed, as the Ukrainian defenders repelled over five Russian attacks there.
