Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): Vladimir Putin, in a meeting with the Russian Defense Minister, emphasized the chaotic escape of Ukrainian forces from the city of Avdiyoka and said: Russian forces will move further towards Ukraine to build on their successes on the battlefield.
The city of Avdiyoka, which once had a population of 32,000, fell to Russia on Saturday. This was Putin's biggest victory on the battlefield since the capture of the city of Bakhmut by Russian forces in May 2023.
"As for the overall situation in Avdiyoka, this is an absolute success, I congratulate you," Putin told Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu at the Kremlin. The order to withdraw Ukraine from the city was announced after Ukrainian forces had already begun fleeing in chaos; The rights of prisoners of war must be respected.
Putin emphasized on continuing the pressure on Ukraine and advancing on the territory of this country, but said: This development should be well prepared and personnel, weapons, equipment and ammunition should be provided.
Meanwhile, Ukraine's Foreign Minister Dmytro Kulba told CNN: Avdiyka would not have fallen if Kyiv had received weapons that had been halted by the US Congress's failure to approve a major aid package.
According to the Foreign Minister of Ukraine, Russia does not intend to stop or retreat. Once Avdioka was under their control, they would no doubt pick another city and start over. Ukrainian soldiers performed a miracle, but they cannot sacrifice themselves and die.
It should be mentioned that the Russian military attack will enter its third year in a few days. In the summer of this year, Ukraine spoke of counter-attacks to recapture the areas occupied by Russia; But he could never make a significant advance against the Russian army.
