After the intensification of fighting in October 2023, during 4 months, 110th brigade successfully repelled the Russian Armed Forces attacks, most of which were in the area of the AKHZ plant and in the area of the village of [[Stepove]], where the [[47th Mechanized Brigade (Ukraine)|47th brigade]] has been deployed.

Starting from October 2023 members of the [[US Republican Party]] have been blocking the US military aid to Ukraine, and consequently since the end of 2023 the UAF in general, and the brigades defending Avdiivka in particular, have been affected by ammuntion shortage, which has been intensifying over time. The UAF tried to compensate the lack of shells with the help of [[First Person View|FPV]] drones, but in foggy weather conditions the use of such drones is very difficult: their flight characteristics deteriorate (sometimes they enen unable to take off) as well as the quality of the camera image.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidaxe/2024/02/06/a-ukrainian-brigade-ran-low-on-ammo-that-plus-some-bad-weather-was-all-the-advantage-russian-troops-needed-to-breach-avdiivka/|title=A Ukrainian Brigade Ran Low On Ammo.

In late 2023, soldiers defending Avdiivka started to suffer from a lack of artillery ammunition.

On February 4, 2024, Russian troops took advantage of cloudy weather conditions and broke through the 110th Brigade's positions, gaining a foothold in the northern part of the city.

The 110th Separate Mechanized Brigade named after Marko Bezruchko (Ukrainian: 110-та окрема механізована бригада імені Марка Безручка) is a brigade of the Ukrainian Ground Forces formed in 2022.[1] Since then, it has gained prominence for its part in the Battle of Avdiivka, where it fought for almost two years before being ordered to retreat in February of 2024.[2][3]

History

[edit]

The brigade was formed in March 2022, shortly after the start of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Soon after its formation, the brigade was deployed in Avdiivka, and defended the city, as well as the Avdiivka Coke Plant, until it was captured in February of 2024.[4][5][2]

On August 24, 2022, the brigade received the honorary name of Marko Bezruchko, a General of the Ukrainian National Republic who led the defense, against the Russian SFSR offensive, of the Polish city of Zamość in August-September 1920.[6][7]

As the fighting for Avdiivka intensified in October 2023, the brigade successfully repelled multiple Russian assaults, mostly around the AKHZ plant and the village of Stepove, where the 47th Mechanized Brigade was deployed.[8]

In late 2023, soldiers defending Avdiivka started to suffer from a lack of artillery ammunition. FPV drones were able to partially compensate for the lack of artillery shells, but were limited by their range and vulnerability to bad weather.[9] Many observers blamed the lack of ammunition on members of the US Republican Party, who opposed an aid package worth $61 billion proposed by president Joe Biden.[10]

On February 4, 2024, Russian troops took advantage of cloudy weather conditions and broke through the 110th Brigade's positions, gaining a foothold in the northern part of the city. The brigade suffered significant losses, as Russian servicemen captured positions close to the main road in and out of Avdiivka.[10]

On 13 February 2024, the 110th Mechanized Brigade was rotated out of Avdiivka after having defended the city non-stop since March 2022. The 3rd Assault Brigade was deployed to the city to cover the retreat.[3]

The brigade returned to combat in May 2024, two months after being rotated out of Avdiivka.[11]

On 20 May 2024 the Poltava city council renamed a street in its city in honour of the brigade, the Heroes of the 110th Brigade Street.[12]

As of July 2024, the brigade was defending against Russia's Pokrovsk offensive.[13][14]
