The difference between the battles in Avdiivka and Bakhmut: what tactics and units do the occupiers use

Oleksandr Borodin, Press Officer of the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade, announced this on the air of the joint telethon.

"The ratio with the enemy: seven to one. It cannot be compared with Bakhmut, because in Bakhmut there was also a large ratio. But these were infantry offensives, the "meat assaults" by "Wagnerites"... And contract soldiers were already working on “pain spots”. But here: linear units, mechanized brigades of the Russian Federation plus GRU special forces... And the elite they have – they threw everything they could at Avdiivka," Oleksandr Borodin stressed.

According to him, such a quantity of equipment was not used in Bakhmut. Instead, they primarily sought to preserve it and utilized infantry offensive capabilities.

"But here: significant use of equipment, significant use of guided aerial bombs... FPV (drones). Very serious work is being done," Borodin said.
