Translation from the channel of Marat Khairullin February 6, 2024:

Regarding the situation at the front, it is crucial to highlight the developments at the Avdeevka Front, where significant events are unfolding today.

From the northeast, fighters from the 114th brigade (formerly the 11th regiment of the DPR) and the 30th (Samara) brigade successfully breached the enemy's defenses at the Avdeevsky quarry, also known as Golubiye Ozera, and entered the city limits in the area of Zheleznodorozhny Lane. They advanced along Sapronov Street, proceeding from the north to Donetskaya Street, and reached the position near the Zheleznodorozhny Bridge.

Simultaneously, the 115th special forces brigade of the Russian Guard, specialized in urban warfare, entered the city.

Viewed in its entirety, this unexpected maneuver by Russian troops effectively cut off Avdeevka at its narrowest point, from the Zheleznodorozhny Bridge to the main transport artery supplying the large group entrenched on the southern front (from the Yasinovataya side).

Is estimated that there is a 10,000-strong enemy group here, which is now trapped, including within the most crucial fortified area of the enemy, known as the 9th quarter or the Citadel position.

Moreover, from the direction of the village of Spartak and the Airport (where I am currently situated), forces from Slavyanka brigade have begun advancing towards the outskirts of Avdeevka between the Citadel and the "Voinskaya chast" position. It is worth mentioning that Slavyanka fighters had entered this position from the direction of the village of Spartak a few days earlier and have been making progress towards the main complex of buildings.

Additionally, forces from the village of Opytnoye have moved towards the rear of the mentioned position and approached another significant enemy position, Estakada, which serves as a supply route for the entire fortified area around the Voinskaya Chast.

Currently, our forces have established a position between the Citadel and Estacada, occupying the crucial height 218, from which they can effectively target both positions.

Taking into account the recent advancements in the area of the Tsarskaya Okhota position, where our forces had reached almost to the intersection of Sportivnaya and Chernyshevsky streets a week earlier, the situation for the opposing forces has become increasingly challenging. Despite their attempts to launch counterattacks in recent days, they have suffered significant losses.

Just yesterday, our forces destroyed nearly 200 enemy soldiers and several American Bradleys, which are predominantly used by two elite Ukrainian units—the 47th brigade and the special forces of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Что же касается обстановки на фронте, стоит сказать про Авдеевский фронт. Здесь сегодня происходит самое важное.
С северо-востока бойцы 114 бригады (это бывший 11 полк ДНР) и 30 (Самарской) бригады прорвали оборону врага со стороны Авдеевского карьера…
