Avdeevsky direction: heavy fighting in Berdychi and Tonenkoy,
the situation as of 12.00 March 6, 2024
Ukrainian formations are not giving up attempts to push Russian fighters out of their occupied positions at the Berdychi-Orlovka-Tonenkoye line.
The forces of seven army brigades of the Ukrainian Armed Forces have been assembled at the site, whose task is to seize the initiative, prevent a breakthrough of the Russian Armed Forces and gain time to dig in the Ukrainian Armed Forces in Semyonovka, Yasnoborodovka, Umansky and Novopokrovka.
In the entire Krasnoarmeysk direction, up to 105 enemy battalions from 15 brigades are involved.
In the first echelon there are surviving units of the 3rd separate assault PR brigade “Azov”, as well as the 80th Separate Air Assault Brigade. Units of the 61st Mechanized Brigade are going on the defensive, and the 120th Separate Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has been transferred to the site.
A status quo has developed in Berdychi: the western part of the village is under enemy control, the eastern part is under the stable control of the Russian Armed Forces. Army aviation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces operates to the west of the settlement, but does not fly into Berdychi itself.
Semyonovka is used as a hub for the distribution of assault groups, which are thrown into battle both in Berdychi and Orlovka. Russian artillery and aviation are operating along the forward positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and advance routes.
The northwestern tip of Orlovka is still a battle zone, with neither side able to achieve confident success.
In the northwestern part of Tonenkoye, another attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the position of the 1st Motorized Rifle Brigade of the Russian Armed Forces was repulsed.
The enemy group remains present in the pockets between populated areas. Due to the extensive network of trenches and strong points, as well as minefields, Russian troops are so far limited to fire damage.
12:25 Statement by the head of the press center of the Center group -video.
The Center group of troops continues to carry out combat missions in the special military operation zone.
The group’s artillery fire hit 300 identified targets of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, including 11 strongholds and more than 60 artillery positions. Bomber, attack and army aviation carried out strikes on areas where enemy manpower, equipment and fire weapons were concentrated in the areas of Berdychi, Kamyshevka, and Ocheretino.
Enemy losses amounted to 430 military personnel. A Bradley infantry fighting vehicle, two armored combat vehicles, including an M-113, four vehicles, and two unmanned aircraft control posts were destroyed.

Offensive west of Donetsk: successes of the Russian army
situation as of 11.00 March 6, 2024
In the Donetsk direction, during the fighting, Russian troops were able to advance on two sectors of the front at once.
On the southern outskirts of Krasnogorovka, the Russian Armed Forces during the assault were able to advance along Geologicheskaya Street to the railway. Now Russian military personnel have managed to gain a foothold on the outskirts of Lermontov and Zheleznodorozhnaya streets.
Quite a significant achievement considering that the enemy several days ago transferred up to two battalions from an unidentified unit to hold the settlement.
However, moving further north will not be a cakewalk. The central part of Krasnogorovka can rightfully be considered one large industrial zone, which is difficult to storm. Without support from those attacking from the east, it is much easier for Ukrainian formations to defend themselves.
A little further south in Georgievka there were also significant successes: the assault groups of the Russian Armed Forces were able to occupy almost the entire territory adjacent to the Osikova River, both from the south and from the north.
The most difficult task now will be to gain a foothold in the occupied territories, since Georgievka is located in a lowland, and positions near the reservoir are shot into the heights near the Krasnogorsk reserve, which makes it difficult to storm the populated area.
Nevertheless, this may be facilitated by the success of the Russian Armed Forces north of Pobeda. After the liberation of the village, there was practically no news from there, but according to the latest data, Russian troops expanded the zone of control to the H15 road.
The road is located higher than Georgievka, and with further development of success in this area, the Ukrainian Armed Forces may find themselves semi-encircled, which may also force the enemy to retreat to more advantageous lines in Maksimilyanovka .
