Russia has redeployed a relatively small number of troops to contain Ukraine's advances into Kursk.  Otherwise it's relying on homeland defense forces.  Meanwhile Ukraine is tying up 10,000+ of its best troops to secure a tiny sliver of Russia, and Russian forces continue to slowly advance into Eastern Ukraine, a few km a week.  I think Ukraine hoped for a massive overreaction and redeployment of Russian troops away from the Eastern front but it hasn't happened.  While embarrassing Russia is certainly gratifying, I don't see a military advantage for Ukraine in all of this.[/quote]

Putin’s grip on his country is tenuous at best. I think Ukraine is hoping that these maneuvers will create more opposition to him. And that remains to be seen. What the world really needs is a civil war in Russia to overthrow Putin. This situation is not enough to start that, but it might be an important first step.[/quote]

This is the magic thinking that led to him winning re-election with the largest margin of his political career. Combine that with every fifth-columnar leaving town he has a firmer grip on power now than he ever has. You're more likely to see a civil war in the UK than Russia, and it would be well deserved and hilarious.
