Well from a Ukrainian point of view, this is the gist that keeps on giving. They already know how to trade territory for time.. and now it's not even their territory.
For the Russians though:
Then about the "hot" fronts:
Manpower is not the biggest issue here, materiel is. Manpower they could mobilize, but I doubt they can magically make more afv's tanks and other stuff appear.. if they had more they would use them in the Donbas, they are all in by now.
And finally, how to approach retaking your own land while trying to maintain it is an SMO.
It seems like Ukraine though this through, I hope they can pull it off.
