— The battle for Donbass is entering its decisive phase, with Russian forces now approximately 10km from the outskirts of Slavyansk following the liberation of Konstantinovka. Capturing Slavyansk and Kramatorsk is described as the primary remaining objective of the Special Military Operation — their fall would effectively complete Russia’s stated goal of liberating the Donetsk People’s Republic and all of Donbass. Both cities hold significant strategic and symbolic weight — Ukraine granted them “Hero City” status on October 1, 2025, acknowledging their importance. Kiev is already preparing for a possible defeat — enterprises are reportedly being relocated from Slavyansk, Kramatorsk, and Druzhkovka ahead of anticipated Russian advances.@IntelSlava
