At the moment the Ukrainians are holding Kostyantynopil''s western and central part. The north-eastern part is in a gray zone, Russian presence is recorded but no consolidation. Extremely heavy fighting continues, with the Russian strategy being to try and get in between Ukrainian formations.

#Andriivka sector:
The #Russians continue pushing in #andriivka and secured a foothold on the town's westernmost buildings. Coupled to this, they are attacking heavily the approaches to #Oleksiivka. Heavy fighting continues for the trench systems between #Andriivka and #Oleksiivka.
#Nadiivka/#Nadezhdynka sector:
The #Russians were recorded in slightly more advanced positions than previously known. Fighting continues for the settlement
#Kotlyne sector:
The #Ukrainians, after a series of counter-attacks from the 29th of January to today, recaptured #Kotlyne's northern part, the ventilation shaft of the "Pokrovs'ke" mines just west, and started fighting for the northern railway treeline and the western part of the VPS-2 mine east of the settlement itself. The #Russians continue to be present in the southern street/hamlet (the part of #Kotlyne south of the railway)
#Toretsk front:
#Russian forces continue attacking and trying to retake lost positions after recent Ukrainian counter-attacks. Small gains recorded

Heavy fighting also persists for the approaches to #Oleksiivka, no progress reported there as of now.

The #Ukrainians conducted a counter-attack in the southern railway treeline south-east of mine VPS-2 and cleared a dugout, also taking a #Russian POW.

As reported by Ukrainians, the only thing missing to stop the Russians in the Velyka Novosilka direction is manpower. This alludes to the fact that good defensive lines are still present in Ukrainian hands and good brigades are defending the sector.

Correction on the #Kotlyne sector: the location of the geolocation was wrong, the #Ukrainian attack happened further up the railway towards #Pokrovsk than previously geolocated.

I’ll do my best to publish the fortifications thread today 🛠️

All along the front, the #Ukrainians 🇺🇦 are fighting the #Russians 🇷🇺 for the initiative and are conducting small tactical counterattacks, buying crucial time to reinforce defensive positions in the rear that #Russia 🇷🇺 can't afford to give #Ukraine 🇺🇦.

🗺Techinical Control Map updates🗺
1. After 8 months of mapping Russian advancements, I finally archived every single Russian action, be it retreat or advancement, in a single togglable layer. You can freely use the data of this layer, but you will have to provide credits!
2. Because of this, I was able to make 1 layer for Russian control and 1 for Ukrainian control. This way, the total number of features was reduced by much, resulting in a *massive* performance boost. You will experience a much more fluid and stutterless experience going through my map from now on.
3. Disabled the fortification layer by default when the map opens (simply enable it if you need it from the layer menu, it's still there). This resulted in a further performance boost.
4. From now on, I will update the map from my QGIS interface, rendering the daily updates process more streamlined and faster, which will result in me publishing more of them.
5. Further small refinements and changes to be expected soon.
If you think I should change anything, don't hesitate to DM me anywhere you'd like, I usually respond quite soon.
