My analysis as a six star armchair field Marshal says the Russians should exploit their numerical advantage by hitting the Ukes somewhere else. Attack until resistance stiffens, then attack in another location, forcing Ukraine to shift their forces to counter, then wash, rinse, and repeat. Whether the Russians will do this instead of butting their heads against increased opposition is another matter, but that is the best strategy right now.
