Quote: "The enemy is continuing to pressure Kostiantynivka, making constant infiltration attempts. They are trying to establish positions inside the city itself in order to reinforce their infantry presence and consolidate their hold on the area. One of their main objectives remains taking control of the section of the city between Illinivka and Novodmytrivka. If the enemy succeeds in occupying the latter, the entire Ukrainian grouping defending Chasiv Yar could face the threat of encirclement. Logistics to the city have long been severely complicated, as the enemy enjoys air superiority created by its large number of drones."

Details: DeepState said that while Russian forces are pressing their infantry assault on Kostiantynivka, they are simultaneously using artillery and guided aerial bombs to destroy the city. The surrounding urban area is also under constant attack, and Oleksiievo-Druzhkivka and Druzhkivka are gradually being reduced to ruins. They warn that it is currently extremely dangerous to be there.
