Russian soldier's 300-man battalion 'slaughtered' in assault on Ukrainian city

A Russian soldier’s 300-man battalion was said to have been slaughtered in an unsuccessful assault on a Ukrainian city, according to one of the survivrors.

The private who went by the name of Andrei, not his real name, was one of just three soldiers who walked away from the bloody massacre that followed on from an attempt to take Avdiivka, a city in Donetsk, Ukraine.

This comes as Russia’s brutal invasion of Ukraine has passed its one year anniversary last month.
