Russia Controlled Areas In Ukraine 2024. Here is the status of russia’s offensive in five. After the first five days of the invasion, russia and its militia allies controlled almost 119,000 square kilometers of ukrainian territory, according to cnn analysis of isw.

If successful, russia would have then fully controlled the sea of azov and the entire north shore of the black sea, turning a rump ukraine into a landlocked country. Russia is gaining momentum in its assault on ukraine amid stalled western aid, making the coming months critical to the direction of conflict.
