- In a review of foreign media materials for February 15, it is said that the Russian offensive in Avdiivts is the first serious test for the new commander-in-chief Oleksandr Syrskyi, and it is also a consequence of the Westʼs delay in helping Ukraine. Now, the once 30 000-person city has become a wasteland, as the Russiansʼ tactic was to destroy all tall buildings in the city with anti-aircraft guns or artillery.
