Ukrainian armed forces announced their withdrawal from the eastern town of Avdiivka, after months of heavy fighting.

Ukraine's new army head Oleksandr Syrskyi said troops were being pulled out in order to avoid being encircled. Russian forces have been attempting to capture the ruined town since October, reportedly with heavy casualties. It's Russia's biggest success on the battlefield since it took the city of Bakhmut last May following another fierce battle.

For more on this, we talk to Marina Miron from the War Studies Department at the King’s College London. She joins us from Munich.
