ISW has reindexed its map layers before and similarly removed old reported Ukrainian counteroffensives around Kyiv, Zhytomyr, Chernihiv, and Sumy oblasts following the conclusion of the Battle of Kyiv in April 2022. May 1, 2023, is an arbitrary date and does not mark the beginning or end of any assessed Ukrainian or Russian effort. ISW retained a few reported Ukrainian counteroffensives polygons from before May 1, 2023, specifically on the Dnipro River Delta south of Kherson Oblast, to preserve context in that complex area of operations. We removed reported Ukrainian counteroffensive coded before May 1, 2023, in order to delineate more clearly new Ukrainian territorial gains from gains secured in previous Ukrainian counteroffensives.

Important Note: ISW has reindexed its map layer for reported Ukrainian counteroffensives on May 12, 2023. ISW will cover subsequent reports in the May 14 Russian Offensive Campaign Assessment. Note: The data cutoff for this product was 3pm ET on May 13. ISW will update this time-lapse map archive monthly. These maps complement the static control-of-terrain map that ISW produces daily by showing a dynamic frontline.
