I have gone to the Avdiivka (Ukrainian) or Avdeevka (Russian) Cauldron Frontline between Donetsk and Avdeevka, with Russian forces, to show you the real situation on the frontline.
I spent a full night at the military positions of the International Brigade "Pyatnashka".
There was almost constant battle involving automatic gunfire, tank fire, artillery and incendiary shells.
