Russian forces have made significant advances in eastern Ukraine, capturing key locations including Novomykhailivka and making gains in Ocheretyne. They have also gained territory near Chasiv Yar. President Volodymyr Zelensky indicated that Russia aims to seize Chasiv Yar by May 9, potentially setting the stage for further offensives in the region. The strategic captures and advances, reported by the Russian Ministry of Defense, have compromised Ukraine's fallback positions, with expectations of a Ukrainian withdrawal to defenses behind the Vovcha River.
