The triangles are Russian defenses and unfortunately I do not think ISW denotes what specifically each triangle represents although my understanding of it is that it's a combination of minefields and entrenchments although if I am wrong about that I hope someone will educate me.



The triangles on the ISW map denote lines of field fortifications; trenches, bunkers, strongpoints, etc. Minefields and dragons teeth, where present, will be between these.

Brady Afriks fortification map is a good resource if you want to get an idea of the scope of the Russian field fortifications. If you zoom in and click on a red dot it will take you to a reasonable quality satellite image of that area.

The below image is an example taken of Tokmak and you can clearly see the ring of trenches around it.
