I hope this is part of a bigger plan and not some desperation move.

Well if the current front lines are pretty entrenched, and it's hard to take back occupied Ukrainian land, then just go take unprotected Russian land to make it even. Didn't Putin say he was up for a truce if the current lines were kept? Let's see how he feels about that when he has to give up Russian land. At the very least it will force Russia to relocate troops and resources.

Yes, that is what Im hoping. But to force troop relocation, you have to dig in which takes time or you have to blitz to Moscow like prigozin, which would really be madness, but it could work.

Don't need to dig in. Just destroy factories, electrical transformers, oil infrastructure, and train yards.

Digging in actually makes sense. Russia has to attack, and then they’re sending meat waves to die for their own land, not ukrainian land.

Anders' analysis makes sense and he's usually spot on. https://youtu.be/A4mg1ZUb-7s
