Urban combat continues in Kostiantynivka as Ukraine's drone forces mark milestone
Ukrainian forces are engaged in urban combat in Kostiantynivka, while President Zelenskyy reports Ukraine's Unmanned Systems Forces have hit nearly $40 billion in Russian targets. Russian drones attacked two civilian ships in the Black Sea.
Ukrainian forces are engaged in urban combat in Kostiantynivka against enemy personnel who have infiltrated the city, with assault units conducting clearing operations. A battalion commander noted the city is "semi-encircled" due to Russian advances near Chasiv Yar and Berestky. Meanwhile, President Zelenskyy announced that in its first year, Ukraine's Unmanned Systems Forces have struck Russian targets valued at nearly $40 billion, improving logistics targeting in occupied territories. Separately, on June 10, Russian drones attacked two civilian cargo vessels, flying Panamanian and Barbadian flags, in the Black Sea. One vessel experienced a fire, which was extinguished, while the other was carrying wheat; both remained seaworthy. Russian forces also targeted the southern Odesa region.
