"This is one of the most powerful and honest Russian films about the war in Ukraine, not recorded by deceitful Z-bloggers, but by real assault troopers," wrote on Telegram the editor-in-chief of Censor.net, Yuriy Butusov. He added a video made by Russians to the post.

"Exactly. We are cannon fodder. Today, 19 boys came; none returned. Our armored personnel carrier was burned, we have no water, we have no shovels, no things, we are looting corpses. Our boys lie here on the entire floor," said the military.

"Representatives of the 'second army of the world' talk about their situation near Avdiivka. The Russian military publishes their stories online, and they do not trust Russian propaganda," assessed Butusov.

Bakhmut and Avdiivka hotspots

On Sunday, the spokesperson for the Ukrainian military group Chortytsia, Lt. Col. Nazar Voloshyn, reported that the situation in the Donetsk region has "complicated, but is under control" in recent days.

"The most 'hotspots' continue to be in the direction of Bakhmut and Avdiivka," declared Voloshyn on Ukrainian television. The Interfax-Ukraine agency quotes him.

The military reported that the enemy continues to use all possible offensive means, including guided aerial bombs, drones, artillery, and aircraft and armored vehicles. Russians intensified attacks by small infantry groups in armored vehicles.
