Apparrently the kursk region has been heavily fortified since the very beginning of the war. So either are not as effective in building defense, or they sent all the defending troopa to be massacred where ukraine was attacking before (russian controlled territories)

So either are not as effective in building defense

The ones in Zaporozia suggest differently. So more likely it's about sending pretty much all experienced units to the slaughterhouse.

I keep wondering when other countries that border Russia are going to start taking advantage of Russia’s weakness. Granted there’s nukes to take into account, they still have a size-able military, and this may only be temporary, but Russia is looking pretty weak at the moment.

It'd be a shame if some Finlandisation happened to St. Petersburg or as I prefer to call it Pietari. Or Kuril islands and Královec held their referendums... ;]
