Russian forces enter northern Kostiantynivka

Russian forces have advanced into the northern part of Kostiantynivka, east of the Kryvyi Torets river, according to Ukrainian military analysts. The penetration is cutting off supply routes and creating new defensive challenges for the Ukrainian garrison in the city. Russian fighters are maneuvering actively in the area, though overall troop numbers in this direction remain limited for now. The situation is described as extremely difficult for the Armed Forces of Ukraine as they face potential encirclement.
