📝**Successful Advance**📝 On the **Konstantinovka direction**, Russian forces continue to advance successfully through urban areas. Footage that has appeared online [of Russian flags being installed](https://t.me/lost_armour/9930) in various districts of the city confirms further advance of assault units and expansion of the RF Armed Forces' control zone. **🔻****Where has progress been made?** ➡️Based on incoming information, the main combat operations are gradually shifting toward the northern and northwestern quarters of **Konstantinovka**. At the same time, it is premature to speak of complete completion of the operation: in the southwestern part of the city, individual pockets of resistance and scattered AFU groups cut off from main forces may still remain. The character of current fighting is well demonstrated by reports from the scene. Even after losing a unified command and supply system, the enemy is capable of holding out in individual multi-story buildings, basements, and prepared strongpoints, which requires sequential clearing quarter by quarter. ➡️One of the key factors in Russian forces' success remains [the work of UAV operators](https://t.me/DKulko/1695). Over the past weeks, drone crews have systematically struck transport, temporary deployment points, and supply routes of the Ukrainian grouping. In fact, this amounts to isolation of the combat zone. AFU units increasingly find themselves unable to timely transfer reinforcements, evacuate the wounded, and deliver ammunition. This is what allows Russian assault groups to act significantly more confidently when occupying individual buildings and strongpoints. 🧨 In desperate attempts to contain the enemy advance, the opponent is deploying artillery directly into urban areas. Over just the past week, RF Armed Forces UAV operators have destroyed at least five AFU self-propelled guns. Under fire were SPGs [M109 Paladin](https://t.me/SouthernRepublic/33917), [AS-90](https://t.me/SouthernRepublic/33883), [Krab](https://t.me/SouthernRepublic/33900), and the Soviet ["Gvozdika"](https://t.me/SouthernRepublic/34005). Systematic destruction of enemy artillery systems across the entire sector from Konstantinovka to Kramatorsk continues. ❗️According to available data, Russian units already control a significant portion of urban areas, and Russian flags have been raised in the northeastern districts. At the same time, clearing of the city is still ongoing, and final completion of the operation will require elimination of remaining pockets of enemy resistance. __If you have updates on the situation, you want us to highlight the successes of your unit — you can always write to us via feedback bot ____@rybar_feedback_bot__ ** ****📍**[**High-resolution map**](https://i.ibb.co/PZ6r0T94/10.jpg)** ****📍**[**English version**](https://i.ibb.co/zVgSR51R/10.jpg) ** ****📍****Online maps available by subscription at ****map.rybar.ru** #digest #map #Russia #Slavyansk #Ukraine **✈**** **[**RU**](https://t.me/rybar)** | ****✈**** **[**EN**](https://t.me/rybar_in_english)** | ****✉**** **[**MAX**](https://max.ru/Rybar) ✉️ [**VK**](https://vk.com/rybar_force) | ✉️ [**RuTube**](https://rutube.ru/u/rybar/) | ✉️ [**OK**](https://ok.ru/group/70000041986659) | ✉️ [**Zen**](https://dzen.ru/rybar) 💸[**Support us**](https://qr.nspk.ru/BS1A0068ID10D33B9IBAQRQ4M9T0NIFN?type=01&bank=100000000008&crc=36CB)
