In Kostiantynivka, the occupiers destroyed a neighborhood with a massive aerial bomb
Russian occupation forces continue to shell the Donetsk region using highly destructive munitions and employing "scorched earth" tactics. Footage showing the aftermath of the strike on Kostiantynivka has been released online.
This was reported by aerial reconnaissance troops from the “Phoenix” border unit.
Objective monitoring recorded a direct hit by a powerful aerial bomb, likely a FAB-3000, on the city’s residential area.
As a result of the explosion, an entire neighborhood of single-family and multi-story homes was completely destroyed. Many buildings were reduced to their foundations and turned into rubble.

The shockwave also caused critical damage to infrastructure and buildings near the epicenter of the explosion.
The Russian army is increasingly using large-caliber aerial bombs, striking from long distances and effectively destroying residential areas of Ukrainian cities and villages.
