I can also confirm this report by Suriyak.

This is why I never called it a "full withdrawal" from western Kostyantynivka, as Ukrainian forces remained in some positions of the Zinkovy District where they are currently intermingled with Russian positions.

Russian forces are not only engaged in clearing operations for Zinkovy District, but are also moving through and around it to the Megatex Plant and across the Kryvyi Torets River to the Kostyantynivka
Metalurgical Plant where they are trying to reach the railway station from the west.

If Russian forces are able to consolidate in either of these factories before Ukraine withdraws across the river, then the remaining Ukrainian formations will find themselves in an physical encirclement.

If I have time this weekend, I might do another livestream on YouTube covering the recent developments on the frontline in Ukraine, as a lot has happened recently.

This will also be an opportunity for any of you to ask me any questions you might have. I enjoy doing these streams, and they tend to do quite well.

Yesterday, Russian began preparations for their next large-scale, combined missile and drone attack on Ukraine.

- 3 Tu-95MS strategic bomber flew on the route Olenya - Engels-2 - Olenya, and were likely equipped with Kh-101 cruise missiles at Engels-2 Airbase.

- 1 Tu-95MS flew on the route Ukrainka - Engels-2 - Olenya, and was likely equipped with missiles at Engels-2 Airbase.

- 1 Tu-95MS departed from Ukrainka Airbase and is still in the air, redeploying to Engels-2 Airbase to be equipped with missiles.

- 1 other Tu-95MS remains at Engels-2 Airbase. It is unclear if it is equipped with missiles or not. It carried out a training mission yesterday.

- Iskander-M ballistic missiles and Iskander-K cruise missiles are being equipped to OTRK installations in Bryansk, Rostov, Kursk and Voronezh Oblast.

- Geran-2/Gerbera drones are being accumulated at most/all major launch sites near Ukraine.

This attack will likely not take place for at least a few days.

How many times I've mentioned each Ukrainian Oblast name in my posts over the last 2 years.

Ukraine are averaging 400 drones a day meanwhile Russia is maintaining 100-150 a day. Russia attacks Ukraine massively every 7-10 days.
