Russia is making advances around the Donetsk town but reportedly at a high cost.
Russian forces have pushed towards the frontline by the Donetsk town of Avdiivka as the latest map of their offensive shows their marginal gains amid reports of high troop losses.This strategically important and fiercely contested town lies right on the front line in eastern Ukraine and has been described as the gateway to the city of Donetsk, which has been occupied by Russia and its proxy forces since 2014.
The ISW noted claims from Russian military bloggers that Ukrainian forces had counterattacked near Avdiivka and also near the waste heap northwest of the town which is a contested 'gray zone' but did not make any confirmed advances.The think tank's daily maps outline the situation on the ground and its graphic on Monday indicates how geolocated footage showed Russian advances southwest of Krasnohorivka and neighboring Stepove, both located north of Avdiivka.
