There certainly is a military solution.
If Ukraine can take Melitopol Ukraine can cut off logistics to the bulk of Russian conquests in the south. It then turns into a Kherson bridgehead situation, where a Russian withdrawal is just a matter of time. And that alone will vastly improve the Ukrainian strategic position going forward.

It might also cause a failure of nerve in the Russian leadership, good if it happens, but very worthwhile even if it doesn’t. It will vastly improve Ukraines negotiating position.

It helps a lot to look at a map. And do some research into weapon ranges and capabilities.

You are dumb...hate to be offensive but that is the type of thinking that gets people killed for nothing...all what you say is nothing but wishful thinking given it as taken 3 months and at last 100,000 dead Ukraine’s to take a couple of villages and move about 8km.

Why lose nerve when they can just escalate to tactical nuclear weapons..WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU...its like chess some people just do not see things...maybe it is a IQ thing?
