Russian forces have concentrated their offensive actions on the city of Chasiv Yar in the Donetsk region. Currently, over 20,000 military personnel are storming the city, reported Nazar Voloshyn, spokesperson for the operational-strategic group Khortytsia.
According to Voloshyn, Ukrainian troops near the town of Chasiv Yar are facing units from the 217th Airborne Regiment of the 98th Airborne Division of the Russian Airborne Troops.
"Opposing us on the front line opposite Chasiv Yar are Russian paratroopers from the 217th Airborne Regiment of the 98th Airborne Division of Russia. It's around 20-25 thousand Russian servicemen attempting to storm Chasiv Yar and the surrounding areas," Voloshyn said.
He added that Russia constantly and systematically assaults Ukrainian positions but fails to consolidate and retreats.
"The Russian army does not give up attempts to capture the city, disregarding losses in both manpower and equipment. There are no enemy Russian forces in the city. Currently, the city is ours. The situation around the city is complex, but it is under control. Our defenders receive reinforcements and stabilize the front," he said.
Chasiv Yar lies around 10 kilometers west of Bakhmut in Donetsk Oblast and 50 kilometers north of Avdiivka, cities Russia captured in May 2023 and February 2024, respectively. Russian troops have been focusing their efforts near Chasiv Yar, which they see as crucial for further advances toward Kostiantynivka, Kramatorsk, and Sloviansk. Russia aims to capture Chasiv Yar in the Donetsk region before the Victory Day on May 9th. If Ukrainian forces hold their ground, Russia's plans for a counteroffensive in June will be thwarted.
Earlier, British intelligence reported, that Russian forces attempting to capture Chasiv Yar in the Donetsk region are employing tactics similar to those used in Avdiivka. Occupiers are dropping numerous air bombs in this area.
It's worth noting that Ukrainian military personnel are controlling the situation in the city of Chasiv Yar, the Donetsk region. However, the occupiers continue their assaults.
