It is thousand + km wide. Obviously Ukraine is not pushing everywhere on the frontline, but when you look at the areas they are pushing, those 200 square km mean nothing. It is just not significant enough. Depending on the exact position it means they managed to earn somewhere from a few hundred meters to a few km on. 3. Comparing land gain of two armies with different goals and strategies is just dumb. Russia does not need to take the land that fast. They can easily fortify their position and destroy the incoming forces, kinda like they do. 4. Yes they did not use their full force. But they already lost quite a number of trained soldiers (especially those wgo knew how to use western tanks) and quite a number of western tanks/equipment. Ukrainian ministery of defense said that they lost up to 20%, but as well know neither ukrainian nor russian official statement can never be trusted, the real number lies somehwere around 30% or 35%. 5. You see, there is a problem with people not understanding warfare just thinking that they can send their main forces on a mission that will change everything. Lets say if Ukraine uses it main forces to brach all the russian fortifocation and reach the sea. What do you imagine will happen? If they use all the forces or even just the vast majority, Russia can collapse ukrainian defences on the other parts of frontline. So Ukraine cant just use all their forces for that mission. So they need to send in, less units. Which would mean that breqching of russian defence lines would take longer if possible at all. Russian troops have more time for reinforcement. So you see it is not so easy. 6. What I agree with is that they are trying to cripple supply and command chain and are somewhat succesfull.
