May 1863 CE
The uprising has spread to Dinaburg, Latvia, and Witebsk, Belarus, to the Kiev Governorate, northern Ukraine and to the Wolynian Voivodship during April and May.
Volunteers, weapons and supplies had begun to flow in over the borders from Galicia in the Austrian Partition and from the Prussian Partition.
Volunteers had also arrived from Italy, Hungary, France and from Russia itself.
The greatest setback is that in spite of the liberation manifesto from the KCN, without prior ideological agitation, the peasantry cannot be mobilized to participate in the struggle, except in those regions that are dominated by Polish units, which have seen a gradual enrollment into the Uprising of agricultural workers.
