You don&#8217;t have to be some kind of qualified intelligence officer to understand that they are trying to cut off, in particular, logistical routes and complicate the defense of these cities,&#8221; the military officer noted.<\/p>\n<p> According to him, the enemy is actively using the &#8220;Dobropil wedge&#8221; to strike roads with drones. In particular, the highway leading from Kramatorsk towards the Dnieper, as well as the direction to Izyum and Kharkiv, was affected.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;It was not possible to completely eliminate this wedge. The enemy began to strike deeper and deeper with drones. That is, there are problems on the Sloviansk-Izyum-Kharkiv route and towards the Dnieper,&#8221; explained Pyasetsky.<\/p>\n<p> The Russians are also shelling Konstantinovka with artillery, drones, and aerial guided bombs.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;They don&#8217;t even need to launch missiles there. They effectively get KABs there &#8211; and they use calibers from 250 to several tons of combat load. Therefore, the situation is very difficult. Residents still remain &#8211; there is no electricity, no water &#8211; people live in basements,&#8221; the military man concluded.<\/p>\n<p> Recently, <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/rosiiany-atakuvaly-aviabomboiu-kostiantynivku-na-donechchyni-p-iatero-liudey-zahynuly-ie-ruynuvannia\/\">the Russians hit Konstantinovka with a FAB-250 aerial bomb<\/a> , which was dropped on a residential area. The attack killed five civilians aged 62-74, and damaged four more high-rise buildings.<\/p>\n<p> On September 14, the occupiers also attacked Kostyantynivka. First, they struck with artillery and used drones, and then <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/rosiiany-obstrilialy-kostiantynivku-zi-smerchiv-ie-postrazhdali-ta-chyslenni-ruynuvannia\/\">attacked the city with three Smerch MLRS missiles<\/a> .<\/p>\n<p> As a reminder, <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/u-kostiantynivtsi-na-donechchyni-zakrylasia-ostannia-likarnia\/\">not a single hospital is operating in Kostyantynivka, Donetsk region<\/a> .
