If the Ukrainians can continue this progress, it once again calls into question the possibility of cutting Russian supply lines from Belgorod. https://t.co/zHr7NfX6Ir

This is the Ukrainian strategy. It’s one used many times in war and it is:

1) Allow an enemy to take territory uselessly.
2) Use agile rearguard actions to destroy supply and supply lines.
3) Wait until the frontline units run out of supplies.
4) Destroy those frontline units and retake territory.

I mean, contrary to Ian Welsh’s clown shit, this is not some mystery strategy; I’m not giving away the game here. It’s obvious to anyone who knows a damn thing this is what the Ukrainians had started to do. And that’s because it’s the best strategy in this scenario. Does not take a fucking genius to see.
