Situation on the Kostyantynivka direction, Donetsk Oblast: Over the last few weeks, heavy fighting has continued in the Kostyantynivka, primarily on the flanks. The "stalemate" within the city itself has remained in place. In the west, Ukrainian forces cleared the village of Mykolaipillya and the surrounding fields from earlier Russian infiltrations and pushed south towards Dovha Balka, recapturing Rozkishne and the northern part of Dovha Balka. Russian forces are now attempting to regain control over the northern part of Dovha Balka to resume infiltrations towards Mykolaipillya. To the east, Russian forces improved their positions in the treelines west of Kostyantynivka, and continued their infiltrations into the Osykove and Oleksijevo-Druzhkivka areas. In Kostyantynivka itself, some residential blocks in the western suburbs were cleared, and low-intensity fighting continues for the large grey-zone in the northwestern districts. Taking advantage of this lack of Russian assault operations within Kostyantynivka, the Ukrainian command is attempting to bring infantry into the northern part of the city from the area of the railway line, and subsequently managed to expand the grey-zone towards the Old City. Meanwhile, Russian forces continued deep infiltrations through the large grey-zone north of Kostyantynivka and are attempting to enter the village of Kurtiivka. Fighting continues for the village of Stinky and the nearby forests. + ~18.1 km² in favour of Ukraine. + ~1.45 km² in favour of Russia. Interactive map: amkmapping.com
