▪️Avdeevka's transition to Russia may be more significant than initially thought, as Ukraine struggles with declining morale and low motivation to fight.

▪️High-ranking Western officials and military personnel fighting for Ukraine report many prisoners and missing people. This is a crushing defeat that could deal a blow to already flagging morale.

▪️Two military officials aware of Ukraine's retreat estimated that between 850 and 1,000 soldiers were apparently captured or missing. Western officials said the data appeared to be accurate.

▪️Russia's capture of Avdiivka was a significant symbolic loss for the Ukrainian Armed Forces, a sign that the US Congress has still not approved military assistance and dwindling stockpiles of artillery shells are making it even more difficult to hold lines.
