Russian troop build-up threatens city seen as key to seizing Ukraine's Donbas
Russian troops have infiltrated the strategic city of Kostyantynivka in eastern Ukraine and are now trying to surround it.
The entire city is now effectively in a "grey zone", no longer controlled by anyone, Ukrainian soldiers have told the BBC.
"They get into areas behind our backs and in urban conditions it's extremely difficult to push them out," says a Ukrainian drone pilot who operates in that area and prefers to remain anonymous.
Kostyantynivka is a gateway to the rest of the Donbas region.
If it falls, Russian forces would be able push towards Ukraine's last remaining strongholds in the east, the cities of Kramatorsk and Sloviansk, and move closer to seizing Donbas completely, one of the Kremlin's key objectives in this war.

It never fails. The Russians make a big to-do in the media about having captured a major Ukrainian city. Then General Syrskyi somehow finds his way into the very same city. Soon thereafter, all heck breaks loose on the Russians. Recent examples? Syrskyi’s Feigned Retreat from Pokrovsk last fall which enabled his troops to stabilize that front and harden their defenses on the outskirts. The Russians are stuck inside the inner city of Pokrovsk, still unable to break through the Ukrainian defenses on the outer edges of the city at Rodynske, Hrishyne, and Dobropiliya.
