once again you're deliberately asking a stupid question and you know it. this makes you look stupid. i will answer it in good faith so that others may see. russia underprioritised kharkov sector (the front was so sparsely manned that many ukrainian formations simply walked through unopposed) to try and hold kherson (which they fought very hard hard for, many ukrainian formations got shellacked and 'lost their combat capability' as the ukrainian strategy for reducing this bridgehead was to strain russian logistical capacity and suppress and damage their one reliable route of resupplying their forces over the dniepr), and in the end they lost both since kherson bridgehead was not sustainable. as for current russian offensive, i fully expect pokrovsk to fall before end of summer, siversk and konstantinovka will fall before the end of the year
