"The limited Russian response is because of the lack in a “so-what” factor."

Russian activity in the last 12 hours. They are taking land in other places while still fighting or holding the advance up north. Again, the only winners are the Weapon manufacturers and the politicians that receive their donations.

Are the Ukrainian’s going after Russian logistics, communications, major Russian power generation, main supply routes, some key industry, command and control? What is the objective here?

You seize terrain either because you’re (1) oriented on the enemy or (2) the terrain itself.

None of those appear to apply here.

They attacked a bunch of border guards, this wasn’t really part of the battle space, Ukraine will lose this terrain fairly rapidly, and there is no high value target the Ukrainian’s appear to be going after.

This seems almost like it’s for the news, a PR stunt, but without any true objective.
