RU POV: Russian advances on Day 832 of the war + Suriyak on break - Suriyakmaps

Jun 5, 2024 — Jun 5, 2024 War Day 832–832


I was busy yesterday so couldn't do the update, and was waiting for today's update to be posted so I could bundle it together. Unfortunately Suriyak is going on a break for the next week, so there won't be any map posts or analysis for a little while.

These updates are from yesterday, as there were no updates posted by Suriyak today due to him going on break.

A reminder that these maps are confirming updates from yesterday (i.e. 12 to 24 hours delayed).

Russian forces have recently become much more active along the south Donetsk front, following the capture of Paraskoviivka yesterday.

In the north, Russian forces pushed south out of Pobjeda, capturing a large field, as well as part of a treeline north of Paraskoviivka. They are looking to squeeze Ukraine out of the area between Pobjeda and Paraskoviivka, now that Ukraine has lost control of the village. This will likely occur over the next few days, as Ukraine simply does not have the soldiers in this area to try hold exposed positions in those fields.

Around Kostyantynivka, Russian forces made a large, rapid advance towards the town from the south, capturing a large chunk of the fields. Ukrainian forces were unable to hold any of the treelines or fields, and thus have been forced back into positions in the town itself. Russian forces will likely look to repeat what they did in Novomykhailivka, by continuing their advance west and occupying positions all along the south side of the town, as well as advancing north of the river to capture the microdistrict.

Further south, Russian forces made another advance towards the O0532 road, capturing a few trenchlines, as well as pushing deep along the main road.
Russian Forces Advance: 0.58 km²

Advance = 0.58km2

Following on from yesterday, Russian forces finally managed to gain a foothold in Novooleksandrivka, taking over the eastern edge of the town. Ukrainian forces have dug in well in this area, and are putting up stiff resistance. This advance comes after dozens of different Russian claims over the past month of entering the town, which all were shown to be false.
Russian Forces Advance: 0.05 km²

Advance = 0.05km2

Russian forces managed to capture a trenchline just south of Rozdolivka. There has also been a number of reports of large Russian gains east of Rozdolivka after some intensive drone and artillery usage, however they are not in this update so we will have to wait and see. As for my own opinion, I have seen the many (very NSFW) videos coming out of that area, but cannot comment on the claims of advances yet.
