The Situation on the 'Khizhaki' Road

According to МВС: The 'Khizhaki' road, located near the town of Kostiantynivka, has become a critical route for military and police movements.

This town, like many others in the region, bears the scars of recent conflict, complicating daily operations.

Challenges in Maintaining Security
