British Intelligence: Russians Could Have Captured Novooleksandrivka

This creates risks.

Russian occupiers could probably take control of the village of Novooleksandrivka in the Donetsk region. This poses a threat to one of the Defence Forces' main supply routes in the east.

The British Ministry of Defence reported this on X.

“Russian troops have likely taken control of the village of Novooleksandrivka, located approximately 20 km north of Avdiivka in the Donetsk region. There has been heavy fighting in the area throughout 2024, and Russia has gradually advanced since the capture of Avdiivka in February 2024,” says the British Ministry of Defense.

It is noted that the occupation of Novooleksandrivka will allow the enemy to get closer to the T-05-04 road, which is one of the main supply routes for the Defence Forces in the east.

Intelligence adds that the village of Vozdvyzhenka is likely to become the next target of Russia, which plans to cut the road and disrupt Ukrainian logistics.
