He shared the information on Espreso TV.

 

"Tonight, like every day, is spent under the sound of cannonade. After the enemy broke through near Chasiv Yar, only 7-8 kilometers remain to Kostiantynivka. This proximity has already resulted in the constant sound of artillery fire. The Russians have an advantage in the number of shells and shots," Dovbnia emphasized.

 

According to the member of Druzhkivka City Council, what is happening near Kostiantynivka is reminiscent of Soviet war movies - constant noise and explosions.
 

“The road to Chasiv Yar is open only to the military and locals. I think the large quarries there will be able to hold the enemy back a bit between Kostiantynivka and Chasiv Yar,” Dovbnia added.
 

  • Volodymyr Nazarenko, head of artillery intelligence of the 4th Rubizh Brigade, NGU captain, noted that Russian units continue to put pressure using all available resources.

  • Since the beginning of Monday, October 21, 134 combat clashes have occurred between the two armies. Most of the Russian attacks took place in the Pokrovsk direction, with 46 recorded engagements.
