As for pincer movements to cut Ukraine in half- While it's fun to posit that the russian forces could effectively operate 90-100 miles from a railhead, mere reality on the ground doesn't paint that picture. They've been incapable of effectively operating beyond 30 miles in any engagement. All of which is to say..that if the russian forces were five times more competent than they are..then..they could attempt such a pincer..and then it would be a more even engagement.
As it stands, clown army being executed more than engaged in combat. I'm sure, just absolutely certain, that the surviving troops of these utterly defeated regiments are going to do very well on the eastern front - where there's been a trench stall for almost a decade, and ukraine had preemptively massed it's best and most well equipped forces. Meanwhile, the first batch of ukrainian volunteers is set to complete training and enter the battlefield.
