Russian occupation forces will try to continue the offensive in the Avdiivka direction, since advancing in this area will allow the invaders to achieve tactical successes more quickly.

About the fact that at this stage of the war, the “second army of the world” remains 30 kilometers from Pokrovsk and 17 kilometers from large settlements to the east of this village, writes NBN, citing the Institute for the Study of War (ISW).
Based on the information available to ISW analysts, the greatest degree of pressure from Putin’s army is now recorded near Chasovoy Yar: the forces of the “liberators” located at the eastern border of this settlement have intensified efforts to capture the city, thereby posing a real threat, however excluding an emergency breakthrough.
According to the Institute for the Study of War, Putin's army, apparently, will try to occupy as many territories as possible before the arrival of US military assistance, without waiting for American weapons to significantly increase defensive potential Ukrainian Armed Forces, which will probably happen in the coming weeks.
Military experts believe that the occupiers intend to redirect the vector of large-scale attacks from Avdiivka to Chasovoy Yar, since successes here will give the invaders the opportunity to somewhat speed up the offensive within the framework of the operational plan, and will also allow the launch of further operations against the cities that form the most important “defensive belt” in the Donetsk region.
Earlier, we wrote about the fact that ISW assessed whether it could Ukraine's receipt of a new batch of ATACMS missiles will dramatically change the course of the war.
