I'll be glad when we've all taken Microsoft's pill and we can finally agree on everything.

This is not looking good as Russia is now poised to take a key Ukrainian logistics hub precisely because best resources were diverted away from it and instead to this adventure into Russia. www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c984g10e22lo 'Russia has made sweeping advances in recent days that threaten to outweigh the gains made by Ukraine in its cross-border attack into the Kursk region.
Russian forces are just a few kilometres from the Ukrainian city of Pokrovsk, a crucial logistics hub used by the Ukrainian military.
Home to a key railway station and major roads, Pokrovsk is an essential supply and reinforcement point for Ukraine’s troops on the eastern front line.'

hard to see what the realistic objective is here
Is it just for clicks?
I think it is likely the result will be to transform a somewhat 'stable' situation into an unstable one that keeps threatening to fold into "ww3" or a broader regional war...perhaps that was the objective?
