Kostyantynivka. Clarified the situation in the city, specifically regarding the geolocation of the Ukrainian destruction of part of an industrial building practically in the city center.
The action was a one-time infiltration action, without consolidation, and it came from the southeast, going through the Kazenyi Torets river valley and forests, which are a convenient route for movements.
This is a more or less known weak point, but it should definitely be paid attention to.

Kostyantynivka. More in detail about the last couple of days.
Arrows are all red: no Russian attack has been successful lately.
In general, the sector is quite hot, and Ukrainian barrel artillery has been working hard lately, even almost all day when the weather is clear. Lately, shots can be heard every 3-5 seconds, which is an extremely high frequency and seems to hint at the fact that the Ukrainians have stockpiled a lot of shells.

Arrow 1: Russian infantry movement along the Kleban-Byk reservoir's forests, then along a treeline leading to Berestok, stopping there and continuing further to the junction between Illinivka and Kostyantynivka, where their attack was finally repelled by Ukrainian drones.

Arrow 2: Russian infantry movement along the Kleban-Byk reservoir's forests, then along two treelines ending in a creek that leads to Kostyantynivka's garbage dump. The Russians were stopped by Ukrainian drones just before the creek.

Arrow 3: Russian infantry movement along the railway and treelines near the Kazenyi Torets river, avoiding Pleshchiivka up to its northern edge, where the attack was repelled by Ukrainian drones.

Arrow 4: Russian infantry movement along the railway line, repelled just before the start of Kostyantynivka by Ukrainian drones.

Arrow 5: Russian infantry attack through the "Yahidka" dachas, with heavy casualties, repelled by Ukrainian drones and small arms fire in the dachas themselves and at the start of Kostyantynivka's southeastern edge.

Arrow 6: Russian infantry attack jumping through the fields, bushes, and foxholes, repelled by Ukrainian drones just before the Santurynivka district.

Arrow 7: Russian infantry attack along the main highway, then into the forest up to the pond, repelled with heavy casualties by Ukrainian drones.

Observation: Russian forces are present in Berestok, and continue to sometimes be detected and destroyed in the Ukrainskiy Khutir district. The Russians did not consolidate their positions in Kostyantynivka's center. Some Russians were also spotted and destroyed near the railway bridge at Santurynivka.

Some observations and updates about the Ternuvate sector.

Lately, I saw the situation stirred up a lot of talk online, so I'll write something to clear some things up.

1. Ternuvate is absolutely under Ukrainian control, and any information affirming the opposite does not correspond to reality.
Ukrainian rear services continue to be stationed there, a big number of Ukrainian infantry is also there, and cars continue to pass inside the settlement with acceptable safety.

Russian forces, though, after having been pushed out and cleared in early February after their initial infiltrations (https://t.me/PlayfraOSINT/3857), lately have started to renew attempts to reach Ternuvate again.
They walk by foot for long distances but often don't have success in reaching Ternuvate itself and are stopped earlier, but nonetheless, as evidenced by https://t.me/DeepStateUA/23325, sometimes they make it to Ternuvate: along the way, they are significantly hindered by the Ukrainian FPV kill zone set up in the fields east of Dobropillia, in the settlement itself, by the Haichur River and its swamp, by the two barbed wire lines and the ditch, and then by Kosivtseve itself, which has conserved for all this time a good number of Ukrainian positions.

It's also worth saying that Ukrainian forces conduct regular and organized sweeps of Ternuvate, something like they had done for a long time, effectively, in Stepnohirsk, so I don't find it likely that the situation will significantly worsen in the near future.

2. Dobropillia and Varvarivka. Not a lot of stable Russian positions. The gray zone is more caused by infiltrations and not as much by Russian presence itself.
Russian attacks, usually once every 2-3 days, are recorded with infantry and sometimes motorcycles coming from the horizontal ravines (this morning, for example), mostly unsuccessful because of the good level of organization the Ukrainians managed to reach, which led to the creation of an FPV kill zone.
The infiltration group is usually eliminated within 2 days.
At the moment the situation isn't critical, even though pressure is high.

3. Solodke and Rivnopillya. Work continues to be conducted, as evidenced by already public geolocations. I have talked about this since early February, and since then a slow eastward movement and consolidation have been ongoing.

More instances of FPV drones being used by pro-Iranians. Interesting

Kostyantynivka ambience. An example of an outgoing Ukrainian shell heard from far away

Порт у Ленінградській області зазнав повторної атаки українських дронів сьогодні вранці.

На Покровському та Добропільському напрямках підари дуже сильно почали скиглити через те, що їм досить активно вйо... їхню логістику, адже вони досить вільно себе почували і навіть не підозрювали, що в цю гру можливо грати вдвох)))
