client/title.list_title
In recent weeks, the Russian army's offensive has partially slowed down. British intelligence suggested that this was due to significant Russian losses in the Avdiivka direction
The UK Ministry of Defenсe reports.
It is noted that the Russian army is trying to expand its control zone northwest of Donetsk and is most likely conducting an offensive near Orlivka, Tonenke, Pervomaiske and Nevelske.
"Russian advances have slowed down in recent weeks, likely partially due to heavy losses sustained in the Avdiivka campaign," the intelligence suggested.
They added that the situation at the front remains unstable, and the shortage of personnel and ammunition in Ukraine is likely to limit the ability of the Ukrainian Armed Forces to hold their positions.

Over the past day, at least 70 combat clashes took place between the two armies. Ukrainian soldiers destroyed at least 750 Russian soldiers and 16 armored combat vehicles.
