"If the Russians get into the coke plant, it's effectively game over for Avdiivka."

Hello Team!

Jonathan provides an update on the Ukraine war frontline for 28th October 2023. Not much news due to very rainy weather across the frontline. Yesterday's figures took a downtick but went back up today.

📍 FRONT-LINE UPDATE -🗺️ MAP LEGEND

  • Fierce fighting in some areas like Makivka, Evanivka, Nadynkivka, Petropavlovka
  • Russians attacking over the railway line near Kupyansk

Bakhmut Area

  • Russian gains in Bekivka area according to Deep State Map
  • Ukrainians doing an operational withdrawal, attacked more towards the south after difficulties taking Bekivka
  • Gradual allowance of Russians to move forward, similar to the situation in Bakhmut
  • Ukrainians likely further advanced west of Klishchiivka and Kurdyumivka than mapping shows
  • Possible Ukrainian success just north of Zelenopilia

Avdiivka

  • Russians very close to the coke plant, which would mean game over for Avdiivka if they get in
  • Dangerous moment, open ground is a kill zone
  • Russians sending waves of APCs to stack up troops, taking heavy losses
  • If Russians advance 2-3km and cut the O0542 road, Ukrainians will struggle to hold Avdiivka
  • Ukrainians brought in 47th reserves, likely from Robotyne area, indicating seriousness
  • Lack of ammunition hindering Ukrainian defense

Southern Frontline

  • Russian attack south of Novomykhailivka, demining vehicle got close then blew up
  • Grey zone right on the edge of Novomykhailivka, Russians getting closer
  • Velyka Novosilka fairly quiet, repelled attacks but no frontline changes
  • No changes in Robotyne area, unsuccessful Ukrainian attack on Russian salient
  • Evidence of Ukrainian column attacking towards Novoprokopivka
  • Ukrainian success pushing Russians back in Nestorianka

Kherson Frontline

  • No change, much the same as previously reported

Wrap up

The rain is affecting the amount of activity. It's mainly still about Avdiivka, with a bit about south of Bakhmut although no mapping changes there. Jonathan has a live interview in 7 minutes so will upload the video after that. Take care!
