HeadlineFeb 19, 2024

Some military experts have described the fall of Avdiivka as Russia’s biggest victory in nine months since Russian troops captured Bakhmut. The Biden administration blamed the fall of Avdiivka on “congressional inaction” as U.S. lawmakers have yet to approve a request for $60 billion in new military aid.
