The Russian army has completely captured Maryinka. This was stated by Mykola Voroshnov, an aerial reconnaissance officer of the 72nd Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, which is fighting in this direction.
"Maryinka has fallen. It is less than 14 kilometers to Kurakhove by direct road. Fields, plantations, a farm and a small village. After Avdos (Avdiivka), they will throw all their forces into a breakthrough in the direction of Kurakhove-Vuhledar. I am almost sure that this will be the next offensive fist of the orcs. Soon we will be facing the "fortress of Kurakhove," writes Voroshnov.
At the same time, Russian military publications write that the Ukrainian Armed Forces are still in the northwestern part of Maryinka (but some Russian publications also report that the city has been completely taken).
At the same time, Ukrainian General Tarnavsky said today that the Ukrainian army is "steadfastly holding the defense in the Maryinka and Avdiivka directions."
