Ukraine says Russian attacks easing around embattled town
Thursday, 2 November 2023 Ukraine has stated that Russian attacks on the town of Avdiivka have decreased, but the Kremlin denies that the conflict is deadlocked. Avdiivka has been a focal point of fighting between Ukrainian and Russian forces since 2014. Ukrainian President Zelensky confirmed that his forces are mounting defensive actions in Avdiivka. While there are concerns that Russian forces may be regrouping for another wave of attacks, Ukraine claims to be largely in control. Both sides have struggled to make significant progress on the battlefield in recent months.
Russian attacks in Ukraine wounded at least 14 civilians over the past day, officials said Saturday, as the president of the European Union's executive arm returned to the Ukrainian capital to meet with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
