Russia retreating, the way it should be!

There is little doubt that the objective is the NPP.
Nothing else makes sense.

This was even more desperate than the Battle of Bulge gambit. The tide has turned. The more the Ukes see a chance, the more doomed troops will be committed. Again, the Ukes go all in on being rope a doped. I wonder where those thousands of Russian troops everyone thought was in Kursk are actually being concentrated. A move out Belarus would surround and bypass Kiev in a few days. The Dneiper would be open pretty much to Odessa.

Not sure what the point is of capturing the plant. To prevent Russia from counter attacking, for fear of damaging the nuclear reactor? Have a hard time believing it’s strictly for PR.

No.
The first link is from yesterday's video. According to Mercouris: The Ukraine is losing - no change there. Their decision to cross the border into Russia contradicts their fake interest in negotiations. This incursion appears to be a desperation move now that the Ukrainian leadership realizes they can't win.

To the MSM, the Kursk nuclear power plant is nice looking, political bargaining chip for Ukraine to take. It is not the only valuable target or possible goal.
Kursk is a rail and air hub for Russian operations in eastern Ukraine. For now, Ukraine capturing Kursk is so unlikely it is not worth discussing. Kursk is closer to Moscow than Rostov on Don or Volgorod, getting close enough to Kursk to disrupt rail and air travel would make Russian logistics worse for it.
The mud season and winter are approaching, and last winter was really bad for Russian conscripts when thousands of them froze to death. Disrupting Russian logistics and letting General Winter do his work for the AFU is a possibility.

No, I love freedom
and so do Ukrainians
but they’re under threat of attacking monsters, just kike Israel is
so they have no choice but to fight back
but it’s always interesting, the way you claim to abhor death and violence, yet you NEVER, EVER say anything bad about the person who started this war, Putin
why is that? hmmm hmmm hmmm ...
