Summary
Russia said it is ready to hand over the bodies of fallen Ukrainian service members in Kostiantynivka and proposed a ceasefire there from 12:00 to 18:00 Moscow time on July 6.
The Russian Defence Ministry said Ukraine must tell Russian commanders by 12:00 Moscow time on July 5 whether it accepts the humanitarian handover.
The proposal comes amid conflicting claims over the city: Vladimir Putin earlier said Russian forces had captured Kostiantynivka, while Ukraine's General Staff denied Russian troops occupy it.
DeepState, a Ukrainian military analysis group, had reported Russian forces reached Kostiantynivka's outskirts and were still infiltrating the city, underscoring the uncertainty around control and any ceasefire's execution.
