Ukraine hasn't seemed to be on any more large offensives lately since that last one a month ago.
Another armchair general speaks.
I'll offer a guess for you: they intend to make sure that they don't overextend themselves because they want to keep whatever ground they regain.
I repeat, that is a guess.
I will leave to the government and senior leaders in Ukraine the business of running their war. Fighting well when on the defensive is a bit different from fighting well when on the offensive. Their ability to set up and execute the counteroffensive in the Kharkiv area was a demonstration of competence.
