We're getting dribs and drabs of skirmishes and the odd artillery strike. I don't think any of the dailies are particularly helpful. Tanks are deathtraps, with the proliferation of tank killers on the ground and in the sky. If you see the 2 tanks ahead of you - or worse - ahead and behind you go up in a fireball, you probably SHOULD get your butt out of the big, obsolete and expensive target. I also hear reports of Russian tank concentrations being targeted by stand-off weapons. I don't think it's all one-sided. But the Ukrainians can't afford tit-for-tat losses, and they are more willing to give up lives for minor territorial gains, where the Russians appear to be trying to minimize their casualties. Both sides have stand-off weapons that can destroy tanks. Both sides flee when the odds are against them. Both sides use artillery on troop and armor concentrations. Both sides have guided munitions. The Russians have more helicopters and planes, so they can rush more ordnance to hot spots, and attack from out of range of Ukrainian anti-aircraft defenses. But swooping in with manned aircraft over enemy territory is a very risky business for both sides. In the Iraq War(s), NATO forces had no problem knocking out Iraqi SAM sites. Russia is not Iraq.
